This NCLT coin was released by the RAM as part of a limited edition metal box set - A Century of Air Power - Eleven Coin Collection. Personnel, veterans and aviation enthusiasts will delight in this stunning coin collection celebrating iconic aircraft of the Royal Australian Air Force as the service marks its centenary. Australia was the second nation to establish an independent air force. The air force has always been on the leading edge of technology - from wood and fabric aircraft of the 1920s, to the advanced fifth generation F-35 Joint Strike Fighters of today.


There are nine other pad printed coins in the set and one non-pad printed coin. Only 15,000 Limited Edition sets are available and the only way to get the non-pad printed coin is as part of this set. Each coin in the set was issued in a coincard.
