Comment
Australian mint set of 12 coins and 12 copiesInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was issued to commemorate the 60th anniversary of the end of World War II and the liberation of the internees held at the Rarotonga Internment Camp on the Cook Islands. The coin's design features a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II on one side and a depiction of the internment camp on the other, along with the inscription "WWII Internment Camp Token" and the year 2008. The use of silver and the unique design make this coin a valuable collector's item for those interested in numismatics and military history.
