Aanvullende informatie

The P-40 Warhawk saw its most iconic moment at Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941, when a handful of Army Air Corps pilots managed to get airborne against the Japanese attack — George Welch and Kenneth Taylor between them claimed six kills that morning. The Marshall Islands issued a long series of WWII aviation commemoratives in the early 1990s, largely targeting the American collector market with legal-tender face values that bore no relationship to actual monetary use in the islands.

KM#58 is one of dozens in that series. The .999 silver one-troy-ounce format was the standard vehicle for this entire commemorative program.
