Interesting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design, created by artist John Bergdahl, which depicts a group of soldiers standing on the shores of a beach, looking out towards the sea. The design is meant to represent the moment when the soldiers first landed on the beaches of Normandy during D-Day, a pivotal moment in the First World War. The coin's design is intended to convey a sense of camaraderie and solidarity among the soldiers, and serves as a poignant reminder of the sacrifices made during the war.
