Vietnam War 2019 $1 Silver Proof 4-coin Set

Downies says about this coin:

Saigon (now Ho Chi Minh City), Vietnam, 1962. Thirty of Australia’s sharpest military minds arrive in a country held hostage by conflict. Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War begins – involvement that will last ten years, through tumultuous times marred by controversy. But those who serve, serve valiantly – continuing a reputation Australian servicemen and women proudly hold as being smart, courageous and resourceful.
Rediscover Australia’s experience on the front lines of the Vietnam War, captured by this stunning silver coin set! Through the Vietnam War 2019 $1 Silver Proof 4-coin Set, you’ll witness Australians in action across the Army, Navy, Air Force and Medical Corps.

A glimpse of Australia’s involvement in the Vietnam War – in 99.9% silver
Australian infantry wade through rivers to perform a Cordon and Search, isolating guerilla fighters from the civilian population. Royal Australian Air Force Canberra bombers undertake daring, low-level attacks under the Callsign ‘Magpie’– at great personal risk.  Royal Australian Navy warships form a Gunline, providing critical gunfire support while intercepting the enemy supply chain. And Medical Corps officers swoop in by helicopter for a ‘Dustoff’ – an urgent evacuation of a wounded soldier.
These scenes are beautifully captured in pristine, 99.9% pure silver. There’s a real sense of drama and action in each 40.0mm coin – underpinned by a flawless Proof strike.

Issued for one of Australia’s key Vietnam War dates
On December 16, 1969, Fighter-Pilot-turned-Prime-Minister John Gorton proclaimed that Australian troops would soon be withdrawn from Vietnam. After years of conflict under arduous conditions, these Australians would finally be able to go home.
It still took another three years for the last Australian personnel to be withdrawn – but Gorton’s milestone announcement paved the way.
And presented with prestige
Each of these silver coin sets arrives housed in a sleek, black presentation case, in turn set within an illustrated outer box. The accompanying certificate is laden with Vietnam War facts, allowing you to delve even deeper into Australia’s wartime experience.
