The D-Day 80th Anniversary Silver Proof 50p Set (Jersey)

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 to mark this important milestone, a brand new collection of five Silver Proof 50p coins has just been issued.

It's a collection that not only honours the heroes of D-Day but also invites you to become a bearer of their legacy, with each and every 50p in the collection holding a story which altered the course of nations. 

• Fully approved by Buckingham Palace and His Majesty the King
• Struck from Sterling Silver with selective 24 Carat Gold-plating
• Complete to the highest of standards – Proof Finish
• Comes in a Presentation Case with a uniquely numbered Certificate of Authenticity
• A worldwide edition limit of just 450 has been set

A worldwide edition limit of just 450 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.
