Isle of Man 1995 Aircraft of WW II Curtiss P-40 Tomahawk One Crown Unc
$16.99The Curtiss P-40 was the first fighter flown in action against the Japanese forces in Burma before the official US entry into WW2. As wartime experience in the P-40 mounted, Curtiss made many modifications. Engineers added armor plate, better self-sealing fuel tanks, and more powerful engines. They modified the cockpit to improve visibility and changed the armament package to six, wing-mounted, .50 caliber machine guns. The P-40E Kittyhawk was the first model with this gun package and it entered service in time to serve in the AVG. The last model produced in quantity was the P-40N, the lightest P-40 built in quantity, and much faster than previous models. Curtiss built a single P-40Q. It was the fastest P-40 to fly (679 kph/422 mph) but it could not match the performance of the P-47 Thunderbolt and the P-51 Mustang so Curtiss ended development of the P-40 series with this model. In addition to the AAF, many Allied nations bought and flew P-40s including England, France, China, Russia, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa, and Turkey.

Isle Of Man Medals Of WWII Series The George Cross 2004 One Crown Unc
$16.99This dramatic uncirculated commemorative Crown was issued by the government of the Isle of Man to honor the soldiers of World War II who exemplified the bravery and self-sacrifice that saw the allies to victory over the forces of Fascism. This Crown bears the impression of The George Cross imposed over a scene depicting the British suffering and resilience during the Battle of Britain. King George VI instituted the George Cross for “acts of the greatest heroism or of the most conspicuous courage in circumstances of extreme danger” when the population of Britain was subjected to mass bombing by the German Luftwaffe in 1940. This award, second only to the Victoria Cross (Great Britain’s highest military decoration), is usually given to civilians and may be bestowed posthumously. It consists of a silver cross, with one side portraying Saint George slaying the Dragon and the inscription: “For Gallantry;” and on the other side, the name of the holder and the date of the award. The Island of Malta was awarded the George Cross during World War II for displaying heroism in resisting hostile attacks.
