As we paid tribute to all those who took part in that defining date in history, a very special coin was being struck
On 6 June 2024, we commemorate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day. British Armed Forces personnel will lead the nation in a series of D-Day commemorative events, including the symbolic lighting of beacons across the United Kingdom. Join them in honouring the bravery and sacrifice of those who fought to secure the peace and freedom we cherish today by ordering your D-Day Pure Silver Layered Proof Ten Pound Coin - officially licensed with The Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force.
To commemorate the 80th Anniversary of D-Day, the magnificent D-Day 80th Anniversary Proof Ten Pound Coin was struck on the actual anniversary day - 6 June 2024 to an immaculate proof finish and layered with pure silver.
What makes this coin truly exceptional is that the design depicts the ships, aircraft, soldiers and equipment that were all used on D-Day and has been officially licensed with The Royal Navy, British Army and Royal Air Force.
Struck on One Day Only — the 80th Anniversary of D-Day — 6 June 2024
Officially approved by Buckingham Palace for release, The D-Day 80th Anniversary Proof Coin takes its place in history. Just 200 coins were struck on June 6, 2024. This is an exceptionally small mintage for such a historic commemorative issue. And as it is a ‘Struck on the Day’ issue this means that once the edition limit is sold out, it can never be repeated.
Just 200 coins issued and individual numbering makes each coin unique
Layered in fine 999 Silver, each coin is uniquely numbered within the edition limit – which means no two editions are the same. Your coin is completely unique to you, making it the ultimate collectors’ edition. A strict application procedure is in place with priority established on a ‘first come first served basis’. The earliest orders will receive the lowest edition numbers.
An exceptional one-off striking of a ‘supersize’ 65mm Five Crown coin
Each coin is struck not once but twice onto a specially prepared mirror surface, allowing every nuance and detail of the artist's design to be appreciated. Minted in a ‘supersize’ 65mm, the impressively large diameter (almost three times larger than a £1 coin) allows for exquisite detail and clarity.
Free presentation box & certificate of authenticity
The coin comes presented in a bespoke presentation case individually encapsulated to protect and preserve the Proof finish and includes an informative Certificate of Authenticity.
Act quickly a sell-out is expected
This issue limit of 200 coins is an exceptionally small mintage for such a historic commemorative issue and given the significance of the occasion which this coin commemorates, a sell out is expected.
The D-Day commemorations in 2024 are a fitting tribute to all those who made the “ultimate sacrifice” during the Second World War, and this may well be our last chance to honour them. Order today.
