The RBL D-Day Poppy Proof £5 Coin

Each year, Remembrance Sunday provides the nation with an opportunity to reflect on those brave men and women who gave their lives fighting for our freedom.

But this year is especially poignant as we also commemorate the 80th anniversary of D-Day.

And on this significant anniversary year, you can pay tribute to these D-Day veterans with the Official RBL 2024 D-Day Poppy® Proof £5.

 A heartfelt tribute collectors have waited all year for ….

This year's special, one-year-only £5 coin has been produced in partnership and fully approved by the Royal British Legion (RBL).

Struck to a Proof Finish, the coin powerfully portrays a single veteran on Normandy Beach, depicted in both June 1944 and June 2024.

On the left, the young soldier stands in his World War II uniform amidst the invasion's chaos, with landing craft visible in the distance. On the right, the same man, now 80 years older, returns to the peaceful, war-free sands.

This striking contrast captures the passage of time and the lasting impact of D-Day. At the coin's centre, a Royal British Legion poppy® symbolises remembrance and honours those who sacrificed their lives.

Proudly supporting the Royal British Legion

By purchasing this coin, you not only secure a unique piece of history but also contribute to the vital work of the RBL.

10% from every coin sold will go directly to the charity, the funds raised will continue to support veterans, serving personnel, and their families, ensuring that the memory of those who served on D-Day and throughout our history is never forgotten.
