Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 70th anniversary of D-Day, which is a significant historical event that took place during World War II. The coin's design features an image of Queen Elizabeth II, along with an inscription that reads "D-Day 6th June 1944" and a depiction of a soldier on the beach. The coin's silver content and limited mintage make it a valuable collector's item for those interested in military history and numismatics.
