In Greek mythology, Nike was invited to live on Mount Olympus by Zeus, the king of the gods, as a reward for becoming his charioteer during the Titan War.
On coins, Nike has been appearing since Ancient times, always providing an eye-catching muse for currency designers. This is the case, unsurprisingly, for The Perth Mint's designers with this precious metal Australian collectable coin.
Celebrating the anniversary of the end of World War II, no more than 5,000 of this both sombre and elegant coin can be minted.
