The entrance of the United States into World War II tipped the balance of power in the conflict away from the Axis Powers in favor of the Allies.
In the Pacific Theater, Australian and British forces had fought for years on their own against the Imperial Forces of Japan. By 1945 though, the U.S. and Australia were leading the charge in pushing back Japanese forces. The Perth Mint struck these 1/10 oz Victory in the Pacific Gold coins in 2013 to honor the sacrifices of both nations in the cause of victory. The design of the coins incorporates images representative of each individual nation, as well as a powerful symbol of peace in the center of the reverse field.
Coin Highlights:
- Contains 1/10 oz of .9999 fine Gold.
- Comes in a plastic capsule.
- Obverse: The obverse displays a portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The inscriptions include "AUSTRALIA" and "ELIZABETH II" along with the weight, purity, denomination and the year of mintage.
- Reverse: The reverse features a flying eagle carrying an olive branch between the American and Australian flags. Inscriptions include "VICTORY IN THE PACIFIC," and the year World War II ended.
- Sovereign coin backed by the Australian government.
