Now you can own an exclusive uncirculated US half dollar enhanced by Mystic to commemorate the P-51 Mustang aircraft used during World War II.

The P-51 was a long-range fighter-bomber produced by North American Aviation.  Designed in 1940, the single-seat fighter was flown by the Royal Air Force before the US entered the war.  When a new Rolls-Royce engine replaced the previous model in 1942, the aircraft’s performance was greatly improved at higher altitudes, and the Mustang was now competitive with the German Luftwaffe’s fighters.  As the Allies forced the Nazis to retreat, the US Army Air Forces flew P-51s as escorts for bombing raids over Germany.  Mustangs also flew throughout the European and Pacific theaters.  P-51 pilots destroyed almost 5,000 enemy aircraft during World War II.

This P-51 Mustang coin honors the vital role this fighter played in the Allied victory of World War II.  It would make a neat addition to your history or aviation collection.  Order yours today.
