Through the eyes of a nation not accustomed to conflict at home, war in our otherwise peaceful region still seems hard to comprehend so many years later. Uniquely told on these Australian legal tender coins is the story of how war arrived in our area and how we managed a successful defence against experienced and motivated aggressors.
Set contains four highly detailed commemorative coins reflecting on events during the Second World War including Sydney Harbour, the Coral Sea, Milne Bay and on the Kokoda Track.
Issued in a blister pack in a folder.
