2020 marked the 75th anniversary of Victory in Europe Day, and the official end of the Second World War.
Mar 18, 2018 What are the most valuable 1p coins? Unlike other coin denominations, the design of pennies tends to stay the same over the years, meaning there are fewer sought-after collector's items. Even so, one of the most valuable coins ever sold is a 1p – the 1933 ‘old penny', which in 2016 sold for £72,000 at auction.
Following the Allies' acceptance of Nazi Germany's unconditional surrender on the 8th May 1945, the war in Europe had finally come to a close after a long five years of conflict.

However, Allied Nations across the globe have been commemorating 75 years since the end of the Second World War and this important anniversary has been marked with unique coin issues from some of the world's most renowned Mints.
Coins issued by the Netherlands, Canada, France, and Belgium, in addition to the UK £2, have been brought together for the first time in the remarkable 75th Anniversary of VE Day Allied Nations Coin Pack.
