The VE Day 80th Anniversary Proof £5 Coin

On 8th May 1945, the Allied forces celebrated the end of World War II in Europe with Victory in Europe (VE) Day.

Now, 80 years on, this stunning Proof £5 coin has been issued by Guernsey to commemorate that momentous occasion and the brave men and women who played their part in securing victory.

Struck to a pristine Proof Finish, the coin features a powerful design of Winston Churchill, famously raising his hand in the V for Victory sign.

Behind him, St Paul’s Cathedral and jubilant street celebrations set the scene of the historic day.

The intricate detail of this coin, designed by David Lawrence, is a fitting tribute to such an important chapter in British history.

With only 4,995 of these coins available worldwide, their limited edition status ensures this commemorative piece will be highly sought after.

This is a rare opportunity to own a lasting reminder of VE Day, as the few surviving veterans reflect on the day they witnessed the end of a global conflict.

Stock will be available from March, but secure yours today to avoid missing out.

Don’t miss your chance to secure this special edition Proof £5 coin and pay tribute to those who gave so much for our freedom.
