WWII Nose Art 3 x 1oz Silver Coin Set Metal999 Silver FinishProof Diameter40mm Denomination$2 Year of Issue2012 Mintage3,000 sets ABOUT THE COINS This coin set celebrates the Nose Art with famous imagery from the time. The coin set consists of 3 1oz .999 silver coins and is limited to a mintage of 3,000 sets only. I know I find these coins pretty interested and cool, whats everyone else's opinions? could these be a big hit?
This is a set I dearly want. With the low mintage they may be a hot item. If any WW2 buffs in the crowd they will probably will go quick. My grandfather was a b26 bomber pilot, flew 65 missions in the war. When I I look at these they remind me of him. I've looked on the NZ mint site but can't find a release date. By the way APMEX has them listed but not for sale yet. I'm probably getting a set. At least will try.
Just called APMEX about these. Apparently they've come and gone. There is a possibility more will be available in the future.
I like the packaging too http://www.newzealandmint.com/sites/default/files/imagecache/469x254/WWII_NoseArt_box.jpg
I have orders for the sets and Apmex have told me they will be in on the 15th March and listed after then. There is only 75 sets available. They will email me when they are available. Regards Maggie
