Falklands 40th Anniversary Coin Series – Wessex

One of six coins in our series commemorating the 40th Anniversary of the Falklands conflict. This coin commemorates 737 NAS Wessex HAS.3 XP142 named ‘Humphrey’. Probably one of the most famous aircraft from the conflict. Operating from the destroyer HMS Antrim, ‘Humphrey’ was one of the first aircraft to see action during Operation ‘PARAQUAT’ in South Georgia rescuing Special Forces from Fortuna Glacier and also helping in the sinking of the Argentine submarine the ARA Santa Fe.

Measuring 2.00″ in diameter and 4mm thick , the coins come in capsules as standard.

You can also select a presentation box, acrylic stand or ‘floating’ coin stand from the drop down menu if you’d like to take it up a notch!
