The D-Day 80th Anniversary Silver Proof 5oz Coin
Honouring our heroes – the stunning Silver Proof 5oz coin
THIS YEAR we mark the 80th Anniversary of the Normandy landings. On 6th June 1944, Allied forces came by land, sea and air and would eventually bring about the liberation of Europe and ultimately the end of the Second World War.
And what makes this anniversary even more poignant, is that this is most likely the last major anniversary where the few surviving veterans are able to honour their D-Day comrades and indeed all those that gave their lives in the name of freedom.
Today, we honour and stand with them with the release of this brand new D-Day 80th Anniversary Silver Proof 5oz coin.
- Fully approved by Buckingham Palace and His Majesty the King
- Struck from Five Ounces of Pure Silver with selective 24 Carat Gold-plating
- Complete to the highest of standards – Proof Finish
- The impressive 65mm diameter of this 5oz coin has enabled the engraver to work with a level of detail truly fitting for such an historic anniversary
- Comes in a Presentation Case with a uniquely numbered Certificate of Authenticity
- A worldwide edition limit of just 295 has been set
The reverse of the coin, designed by artist Jean-Michel Girard, features the iconic Spitfire Mk IX, HMS Warspite and Sherman Firefly Tank representing the Land, Sea, and Air elements of the invasion.
The 295 Edition Limit won’t be enough to satisfy demand. The 5oz specification has become the premium collector’s choice with recent issues such as the 2023 RBL Poppy Masterpiece, the 2023 King Charles III Coronation and 2022 HMS Victory 5oz coins all selling out.
