About Tuvalu Iwo Jima Silver Coins

2020 marked the 75th anniversary of the forever-immortalized Battle of Iwo Jima as well as the anniversary of Joe Rosenthal’s famous photograph of six U.S. soldiers raising the American flag atop Mount Suribachi. To commemorate this, the U.S. Money Reserve worked closely with Australia’s Perth Mint, one of the most established and trusted names in precious metal production, and the Island of Tuvalu, to produce the Tuvalu Iwo Jima Silver Coin.

History of Iwo Jima Silver Coins

One of the most iconic moments of World War II, Joe Rosenthal’s Pulitzer Prize–winning photograph of the soldiers on the Mount proved to be so powerful that it’s often recognized as helping to bring about the end of World War II.

This solid silver coin marks the anniversary of this epic military campaign and honors the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice during the Battle of Iwo Jima, and the others that followed throughout World War II.

Tuvalu is a Polynesian Island in the Pacific located midway between Australia and Hawaii. It became a British colony in 1916 and broke away from the United Kingdom in 1974 to emerge as its own country. After gaining independence, Tuvalu worked in conjunction with the The Perth Mint in Western Australia to begin producing its own circulating coinage. The obverse of Tuvalu coins always features an effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, while the reverses feature depictions of various themes and subject matters.

The Iwo Jima Silver Coin collection is a top choice for today’s silver owner. Government-issued status, a rich history commemorating our fallen heroes, and the highest quality bullion fineness make these coins a premiere option for collectors and investors alike.

In the realm of Precious Metals, Tuvalu coins are distinctive treasures that combine the small nation's unique history and diverse culture. Thanks to its partnership with The Perth Mint, Tuvalu has taken its coinage to unprecedented levels, producing artistic pieces worth much more than their face value. As collectors worldwide continue to appreciate and seek out Tuvalu’s gold and silver coins, now is a great time to begin investing in one of the most unique names in numismatics.

Design of Tuvalu Iwo Jima Silver Coins

The reverse side design of these Iwo Jima silver coins shows U.S. soldiers bravely raising the American flag, inspired by Joe Rosenthal’s famous photograph. The inscription “IWO JIMA 75TH ANNIVERSARY,” Perth Mint’s “P” mintmark, and the year 2020 in rare Roman numeral dating (MMXX) also feature on the reverse side.

The obverse of the coins feature an official portrait of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II in honor of our wartime allies Australia and Great Britain. Along with the Queen’s effigy, the year of issue, weight, fineness, and face value also all appear.

As a retired Catholic, veteran and union transport worker I was anxious about doing something kinda out of scope for someone of similar background. But fuggetaboutit these guys answered all my concerns and made what I thought would be a long story short. Honest, patriotic and God loving they made my choice easy. They can do the same for you too.
