D-Day 80th Silver Proof £5

Around 156,000 Allied troops landed in Normandy on the first day of the D-Day liberation. Now, 80 years on a stunning Silver Proof £5 coin has been released to commemorate their bravery and heroism. The design by artist, Jean-Michel Girard, features the iconic Spitfire Mk IX, HMS Warspite and Sherman Firefly Tank, all of which were used so effectively during the Normandy landings. Your coin has been struck from Sterling Silver to a perfect Proof Finish – the highest of quality that this historic anniversary deserves. A worldwide edition limit of just 2,024 coins means a sell-out is very likely, especially when you consider the popularity of coins honouring the brave sacrifices of all those who served and helped to end WWII. 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.
