Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it commemorates the 75th anniversary of D-Day, a significant event in World War II. The coin's design features a landing craft, which was used during the Normandy landings on June 6, 1944, and the gold plating gives it a unique and luxurious touch.
