This silver coin honors the union of the United States and Australia in WWII as they banded together to lead the battle in the Pacific Ocean against the Japanese. In the 1930s, Japan developed a major stake in WWII as they ventured out from their home islands into Asian and Pacific territory. Then the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, and the US Navy entered the war effort on both the European and Pacific fronts. The US island-hopped to push the Japanese forces back home. Then in 1941-1945, Australia and the US united to bring peace and freedom to the islands of the Pacific. This union secured the victory of WWII for the Allied powers, and you can honor this allied effort with these silver coins.

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.

The reverse features a World War II battleship with guns raised against a depiction of the Southern Cross constellation. Encircling the rim are the inscriptions of “BATTLE IN THE CORAL SEA” and “WAR IN THE PACIFIC 1941 - 1945.”
