BULLION BARS AND COINS
The Perth Mint has released its 2015 Battle of the Coral Sea 1/2oz Silver Bullion Coin.
The Battle of the Coral Sea was fought off the north-east coast of
Australia during 4 to 8 May 1942 between the Imperial Japanese Navy and
allied naval and air forces from the United States and Australia.
Like the previous year's release, this Australian legal tender coin
portrays a naval ship with its guns raised on a background comprising
representations of the Southern Cross constellation and the Stars and
Stripes. The design includes the inscription WAR IN THE PACIFIC 1941 - 1945
BATTLE IN THE CORAL SEA.
The 2015 1/2oz silver bullion coin is presented without capsules in
protective acrylic tubes of 25 units, and in monster boxes comprising 20
tubes for 500 units.
2014 Declared Mintage
The Perth Mint has today declared the mintage of the 2014
Battle of the Coral Sea 1/2oz Silver Bullion Coin to be 615,017.
