On 10 May 1940, a terrifying dark shadow swept across Europe, enveloping France, Belgium, the Netherlands and Luxembourg. Using devastating blitzkrieg tactics, the relentless advance of Hitler’s forces overwhelmed everything in their path until Britain itself came within range of the mighty German war machine. The world had suddenly become a much darker place.

Many British politicians called for negotiations, the dreadful events of the First World War still fresh in their minds, but on the very same day as the continent echoed to the sound of marching jackboots, the man who would inspire a nation stepped up to become Britain’s prime minister. That man’s name, of course, was Winston Leonard Spencer-Churchill.

Now, a full eighty years after those momentous events, The London Mint Office is very excited and proud to announce a wonderful Solid Silver Half Crown.   

Struck to Brilliant Uncirculated quality, the obverse of these beautiful coins feature the portrait of Her Majesty, Queen Elizabeth II by Raphael Maklouf while the reverse features the iconic depiction of Winston Churchill displaying his famous ‘V for Victory’ gesture, encircled with his renowned phrase, “We Shall Never Surrender.”
