A new £20 circulating coin was issued in 2013 by H.M. Government of Gibraltar. The 1 oz fine silver coin depicts Winston Churchill on the reverse and bears the phrase “We shall never surrender” which is an extract from the following paragraph of one of his defining speeches during the Second World War.
‘We shall defend our island, whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender’.
