Commentary
Le Dragon est un croiseur léger construit en 1917 à Glasgow. Il sert dans la Royal Navy avant d’être cédé à la Marine Libre Polonaise. Il participe aux bombardements côtiers en Normandie. Touché par une torpille allemande, il est finalement coulé afin de permettre l’installation du port Mulberry B face à Arromanches.
Cette monnaie fait partie d’une série consacrée à la Marine Polonaise.
