Comment
Coin is a part of set of 24 coins issued by Guernsey and Jersey - this is the coin number 14:Interesting fact
The 5 Pound coin features a unique design that commemorates the 75th anniversary of the D-Day landings, specifically the landing at Gold Beach in Normandy. The coin's design depicts a group of soldiers wading ashore from a landing craft, with the words "D-Day Landing 12.15" inscribed above them. This coin is a non-circulating coin, meaning it is not intended for general circulation and is instead produced in limited quantities for collectors.
