In Greek mythology, Nice is the goddess who personifies victory in any field including athletics competition and war. Since classical times, she is often portrayed in Greek art as “Winged Victory”. In Australia, she was the inspiration for Gilbert Doble's Winged Victory, created for the top of the Marrickville Soldiers’ Memorial unveiled in Sydney after World War I. Having suffered considerably from the elements, the elegant copper statue was restored and permanently transferred to the Australian War Memorial in Canberra in 2013 as an object of national significance.
In 2025, The Perth Mint commemorates the 80" anniversary of the end of the Second World War. This pivotal event in global history is honoured every year on VP (Victory in the Pacific) Day held on 15 August. The day serves as a powerful reminder of Japan’s acceptance of the allied demand for unconditional surrender on 14 August 1945.
The Perth Mint will release no more than 5,000 of the 2025 80" Anniversary - End of WWII - WINGED VICTORY 1oz Silver Proof Coin.
Design
The coin’s reverse presents a powerful portrayal of Nice as Winged Victory. Her muscular figure, symbolising strength, stands with ethereal, feathered wings spread out in full glory. She clutches a sword in her right hand, as a gesture of respect, and a palm wreath in her left, signifying her role as the messenger of victory. As well as the inscription “80 YEARS END OF WWII 2025”, the reverse also incorporates The Perth Mint's ‘P’ mintmark.
Presentation
Accompanied by a numbered certificate of authenticity, the coin comes enclosed in a protective capsule, in a classic display case with a clear lid, and boxed in a card shipper featuring its own unique stunning design.
