On the 31st August 1951, the Royal Australian Navy Aircraft Carrier HMAS Sydney departed Australia on its way to Korea. In doing so, the navy vessel became the first and, thus far only, RAN Aircraft Carrier to see wartime service.
Celebrating the 75th anniversary of this moment, comes this 430 gram behemoth of a coin. On one side, the navy ship cruises through the ocean, as various aircraft take to the skies all around. On the other side, the ship appears in profile, with important specifications and details listed beneath.
In direct conflict with the massive nature of this 76mm, 11.1mm thick copper coin, the mintage has been limited to a ridiculously tiny 300 pieces only. Lock in your Pre-Order now!
Pre-Order Opportunity: Currently in production, this copper colossus is due to arrive Mid-September 2026.
