2018 Rwanda 1oz Silver Nautical Ounce Series - HMS ENDEAVOUR

Continuing the great success of the initial release Santa Maria, the Nautical Ounce series continues with the 250th Anniversary of the HMS Endeavour.

The HMS Endeavour was the ship explorer James Cook commanded on his first voyage to Australia and New Zealand from 1769-1771. In April 1770 the HMS Endeavour became the first ship to reach the east coast of Australia. Continuing the voyage to New Zealand, where no European ship arrived since Abel Tasman's Heemskerck 127 years earlier, the Endeavour continued and rounded the Cape of Good Hope on March 13th, 1771 to reach the English port of Dover on July 12th, 1771.
