A very special coin cover to commemorate this historic anniversary, when over 150,000 Allied troops landed on the Normandy beaches on the first day of the Operation Overlord. The cover encapsulates a stunning silver proof £5 coin, released to commemorate their bravery and heroism. The design features the iconic Spitfire Mk IX, HMS Warspite and Sherman Firefly Tank, all of which were used so effectively during the Normandy landings. The coin is struck from sterling silver to a perfect proof finish. The cover is enhanced with three of the Royal Mail poignant 'Poppy' stamps, so synonymous with these commemorations, a 2017 75th anniversary commemorative and a new King Charles III £2.50 definitive. This will be the first major D-Day anniversary the King has presided over as monarch. Only 80 of these prestigious covers will be produced, with each being individually numbered.
