The coins in this program commemorate the National World War II Memorial and the service, and sacrifice of American soldiers and civilians during World War II. The National World War II Memorial is a special place to gather to have commemorative and educational programs that pay tribute to America’s “Greatest Generation” and their effort to preserve freedoms for generations to come.

Obverse: The design re-imagines the Victory Medal that was awarded to all who served in the Armed Forces during World War II. The figure of Liberation stands with open arms holding two halves of a broken sword, symbolizing the war’s conclusion. The inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” “WORLD WAR II” “2024,” and “WE ANSWERED THE CALL.”

Reverse: This design depicts the World War II Memorial from the point of view of a person walking up a ramp leading to one of the towers. The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” and “HALF DOLLAR.”

Surcharges in the amount of $5 for each half dollar sold are authorized to be provided to the non-profit Friends of the National World War II Memorial to support the National Park Service in maintaining and repairing the National World War II Memorial, and for educational and commemorative programs.
