This $5 bimetallic coin commemorating the 60th Anniversary of the Battle of Sunda Strait, depicts an image of the ship's bell from the USS Houston in the aluminium bronze centre of the coin.

Displayed on the coin as a symbol of the Battle of Sunda Strait and to serve as a reminder of the courage and sacrifice of the crews of both ships. With the bell as the centrepiece of the design, this elegant bi-metallic coin features an outer ring of stainless steel, and a centre made from aluminium bronze. The words 'Battle of Sunda Strait - USS Houston - HMAS Perth' and the years '1942' and '2002' are inscribed on the outer stainless steel ring. 

There are two designs for the outer sleeve, one depicting the Australian flag (40,983 minted), and the other the flag of the United States of America (30,865 minted).

This listing includes one of each.

Some wear to the outer covers.
