Product Description

The USS Mobile Bay (CG-53) holds an important place in defending American interests and protecting freedom across the globe. A Ticonderoga-class guided-missile cruiser for the US Navy, she is superbly equipped to succeed in even the most demanding of missions. The USS Mobile Bay was named after the Battle of Mobile Bay, a decisive battle during the American Civil War. Commissioned on 21 February 1987, the USS Mobile Bay has a displacement of approximately 9,600 long tons and stretches some 567 feet in length. Armed with naval guns and anti-air, anti-surface, and anti-submarine missiles, plus other weapons, she is equipped for surface-to-air, surface-to-surface, and anti-submarine warfare. She also is the home of two Seahawk LAMPS III helicopters. Minted in the USA from solid bronze, finished with an antique patina, this coin pays tribute to the USS Mobile Bay and salutes the exceptional service of her crew. The obverse contains a port view of the USS Mobile Bay, cutting through the waters on its way to a mission. The reverse displays the United States Navy logo. TM Department of the Navy.
