On September 2, 1945, Japanese officers signed the documents of formal surrender to the Allied forces, and with it the end of World War II. 75 years after the end of the war the Australian Mint wants to honor those who served during the war and remember the impact over time that this conflict had in Australia with the issuance of a colored commemorative $ 2 coin intended for circulation.

World War II took place between 1939 and 1945. Australia's involvement began on September 3, 1939 when Prime Minister Robert Gordon Menzies announced that Australia had joined the war. Almost a million Australians, both men and women, served during the war and almost 40,000 lost their lives.





In September 1945, when Japan surrendered to the allies, the war ended for Australia and a new stage of hope for peace and prosperity opened. The design of this circulation coin reflects the hope of peace as well as the memory of those who died, with four elements in the design: a map of the Southeast and Asian Pacific region, a dove of peace, a band of colors that It represents the three Australian forces and a seven-pointed star for the Commonwealth and also for the stars that appeared on the Mother and Widow insignia.






The obverse shows, like all the $ 2 coins, the portrait and name of Queen "Elizabeth II", the name of the issuing country "Australia" and the year of issue "2020".
