Own a genuine piece of a WWII Spitfire that actually flew in the D-Day raids!

*** Own an actual piece of Spitfire AB910 ***

Just 170 collectors have the opportunity to own a fascinating piece of real history from the D-Day raids.

This extraordinary commemorative has been issued to mark 40 years since the founding of the Douglas Bader Foundation, but with only a minimal amount of this historic metal available, it means that JUST 170 commemoratives can ever be produced!

Struck from 5oz of pure .999 Silver, a 3D Spitfire model sits proudly on top made from a piece of aluminium from Spitfire AB910 which flew in the D-Day raids playing a significant role in the operation that marked the beginning of the end of the war.

  • Issued to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the Douglas Bader Foundation. A charity set up in 1982 in recognition of Group Captain Sir Douglas Bader, a leading airman during WW2. A donation from each sale will go directly to the charity.
  • Features a 3D Spitfire model made from a genuine piece of aluminium from a Spitfire AB910  which actually flew in the D-Day raids.
  • Struck from 5oz of .999 pure silver to an antique finish. The first precious metal provenance medal to ever be released
  • Presented in a floating frame so that both the obverse and reverse designs are visible
  • With only a small amount of the historic spitfire metal available, only a limited number of these commemoratives can be made. Only 170 produced for worldwide distribution.

Remember, not only will you be receiving a piece of genuine British aviation history, but you will also be helping to support the Douglas Bader Foundation itself, as a donation from each sale goes directly to the charity.
