Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique reverse design by artist Paul Day, which depicts a poignant scene of soldiers returning home from war, set against a backdrop of the Island of Alderney's coastline. The design is intended to commemorate the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings and the liberation of the Channel Islands during World War II.
