This 2020 75th Anniversary of VE Day £2 has been released to commemorate a heroic generation. 75 years after Victory in Europe (VE) Day, we remember the hope of an entire generation as the fighting finally stopped and peace came to Europe.
Designer Dominique Evans captures the magnitude of events with a design that puts people at the very heart of the coin – the rays emanating from the centre evoke a sense of hope. As we mark this landmark anniversary, it’s a poignant reminder of the strength of national unity in times of crisis. The edge inscription reads ‘JUST TRIUMPH AND PROUD SORROW’.
Join the nation in marking a major milestone and one of the most significant events in living memory. Produced in collaboration with Imperial War Museums (IWM) this £2 coin is available in limited-edition gold Proof, silver Proof and silver Proof Piedfort editions, alongside a Brilliant Uncirculated edition.
