A meticulously crafted .999 silver commemorative coin celebrating the 80th anniversary of Victory in the Pacific – On 3 September 1939, following Britain’s declaration of war on Germany, Australian Prime Minister Robert Menzies announced that Australia, too, was at war. At the time, Australia’s military forces were under-equipped and undermanned, but a sense of duty rang out across the nation. By 1941, as Japan’s attacks swept through the Pacific, Australia entered one of the most challenging chapters in its military history. This exclusive release honours the courage and sacrifice of those who answered the call of duty during World War II.
Expertly struck to Proof quality – the highest standard possible – this impressive 38.6mm coin is crafted from one ounce of .999 fine silver. The reverse features a detailed engraving of the roaring Lion of the Allies battling a fearsome two-headed dragon, symbolising the epic struggle of WWII. The obverse bears an official portrait of His Majesty King Charles III. Strictly limited to just 1,945 coins worldwide, this exclusive edition arrives with a fact-filled information booklet and a numbered Certificate of Authenticity. Issued under the authority of the Government of Ascension Island and officially approved by Buckingham Palace, this limited-edition collectible pays tribute to the more than one million Australians who served, and the nearly forty thousand who gave their lives, in campaigns across the Pacific.
