An original bronze half-penny mounted on a card showing families sheltering in the underground. The information on the back describes the coin and the air raids. World War II, also known as the Second World War, was a global war. It took place between 1939 to 1945. Most of the world's countries, including all of the great powers, fought as part of two military alliances: the Allies and the Axis. The war was fought as a "total war", meaning all resources a country had were used in the war, even those that didn't belong to the army, such as factories. It involved more countries, cost more money, and killed more people than any other war in human history. Between 50 and 70 million people died. The mass bombing of cities, The Holocaust and two atomic bombings of Japan are three events which killed many civilians.
