Comments

W 1995 roku minęła 50. rocznica zakończenia II wojny światowej. To właśnie w tym czasie australijscy jeńcy wojenni przetrzymywani przez Japończyków zostali uwolnieni. Moneta ta została wprowadzona do obiegu przez RAM, aby upamiętnić życie Sir Edwarda "Weary" Dunlopa i jego niezwykłego ducha oraz środki, które podjął, aby bezinteresownie pomagać swoim kolegom żołnierzom i pacjentom podczas przetrzymywania jako jeniec wojenny.

Moneta została dołączona do zestawów Year BU Mint, Proof, Baby BU Mint i Proof.

Została również wyemitowana w ramach Australia Post PNC 20/4/1995 (93 915 egzemplarzy).

Moneta została również wydana w 2003 roku (ale nadal z datą 1995) jako część podwójnego zestawu Coincard, który zawierał Medal upamiętniający Stulecie Korpusu Medycznego Armii Australijskiej. (Zobacz link)

This is an automatic translation. The original text is:

1995 marked the 50th Anniversary of the end of WWII. It was at this time that Australian Prisoners of War (POW's) being held by the Japanese were released. This coin was released into circulation by the RAM to commemorate the life of Sir Edward "Weary" Dunlop and his extraordinary spirit and the measures he took to unselfishly help his fellow soldiers and patients while being held as a POW.

The coin was included in the Year BU Mint, Proof, Baby BU Mint & Proof Sets.

It was also issued in an Australia Post PNC on 20/4/1995 (93,915 Copies)

The coin was also released in 2003 (but still dated 1995) as part of a dual Coincard set that included a Medal that was commemorating the Australian Army Medical Corps Centenary. (See link)
