| Reverse description | A large colour-printed Union Jack 'V' dominates the centre of the field, with a relief effigy of Winston Churchill raising his famous 'V for Victory' salute positioned within the upper portion of the letter. The legend 'VICTORY' arcs above in raised relief, with 'VE-DAY' and '8 MAY 1945' inscribed below the central motif. Celebrating crowds line cobblestone streets on either side of the 'V', with colour-printed Union Jack flags visible among them, while St Paul's Cathedral is depicted at the base of the field flanked by radiating searchlight beams. A continuous speech extract legend runs around the entire border of the reverse. |
