Commemorating the 80th Anniversary of D-Day with a Limited Edition Coin
On 6th June 2024, the world marked the 80th anniversary of D-Day, one of the most pivotal events in World War II. Across the UK, tributes were paid to the courage and sacrifices of those who fought for freedom. In Normandy, the commemorations were led by Pipe Major Trevor Macey-Lillie, who played a lament at sea at the exact moment the Allied forces stormed the beaches in 1944. Veterans, alongside world leaders and royalty, stood in remembrance at what may be the last major anniversary to be attended by these heroes.
A Historic Coin Struck in Honour of D-Day
To commemorate this milestone, a remarkable 1-kilo silver coin was struck on 6th June 2024, officially licensed by the Royal Navy, British Army, and Royal Air Force, and approved by Buckingham Palace. The coin’s design features the ships, aircraft, soldiers, and equipment used on D-Day, capturing the spirit of the operation that changed the course of history.
Limited Edition of Only 50 Coins
This exclusive coin is part of a strictly limited edition of just 50 pieces, making it a rare collector’s item. Each coin is individually numbered, and collectors can choose their edition number, subject to availability.
