BULLION BARS AND COINS
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. A highly significant Second World War engagement, it effectively stopped the Japanese advance to the south and has been referred to as the 'battle that saved Australia'.
The Perth Mint is delighted to offer investors a new bullion coin marking this famous encounter. Struck from 1/2oz of 99.9% pure silver, the 2014-dated release depicts a naval ship with its guns raised on a background comprising representations of the Southern Cross constellation and the Stars and Stripes. The coinâs striking imagery is encircled with the inscription WAR IN THE PACIFIC 1941 â 1941 BATTLE IN THE CORAL SEA.
Issued as Australian legal tender, the coin portrays the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II on the obverse and its monetary denomination (50c).
The 2014 Battle of the Coral Sea 1/2oz Silver Bullion Coin is available in multiples of 25, which come in protective acrylic tubes each sealed with a tamper-evident security strip. Tubes are available individually, or may be purchased in a âmonster boxâ of 20 containing a total of 500 coins.
