Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it features a unique design that commemorates the 75th anniversary of D-Day. The coin's reverse side depicts a Horsa glider, which was used during the Allied invasion of Normandy on June 6, 1944. The design also includes a portrait of King Charles III, who was the Prince of Wales at the time of the coin's release in 2024. The coin's gold composition and proof finish add to its collectibility and numismatic value.
