<upd_refs>wiki V-sign:
"During the Vietnam War, in the 1960s, the "V sign" with palm outward was widely adopted by the counterculture as a symbol of peace 
and still today in the United States it is commonly called the "peace sign."
xref to ピースサイン (as does daijs) which seems to be much more common on twitter (9 vs 2 tweets these past 30 min)</upd_refs>

<upd_detl>In Britain, the V sign is an offensive gesture (made with the back of the hand facing outwards).
The kokugos describe it as a "victory sign" but I think it's used more or less synonymously with ピースサイン.</upd_detl>
