£52.00

New Zealand 20 dollars, 1995 Silver Proof Boxed & Certificate FDC "Salute to Bravery" Sterling (.925) Silver Frosted Proof, with Gold Cameo. 31 (grams). Diameter: 38.00 MM. Scarce with a low minted of only 3.500 Minted at the Royal Canadian Mint. The year 1995 is the 50th anniversary since the end of World War 11 and, at this time, it is fitting to reflect on heroic deeds of men and women in those beleaguered times. This coin is dedicated to those brave souls who suffered, whether in the heat of battle or struggling to cope in adversity on the home front. It is a symbolic and poignant encapsulation of the spirit of the people. The reverse design depicts a returning serviceman, having laid down his arms, embracing his family. To set off this touching portrayal is a cameo portrait of Charles Hazlitt Upham, Victoria Cross and Bar, Greek Legion of Honour, etched into an area of 24 carat pure gold. Charles Upham's acts of bravery are legendary and he is widely recognised as one of the great sons of New Zealand.
