The Dramatic Story of the SS Tilawa – The "Titanic of the Indian Ocean"

On November 23, 1942, a tragic chapter was written into maritime history. The SS Tilawa, carrying 950 people and 60 tons of silver bars belonging to the British government, was torpedoed by the Japanese submarine I-29 while en route from Bombay to Durban. After the first hit, the ship bravely fought against the floods. But a second torpedo sealed its fate. 281 people lost their lives in the waves of the Indian Ocean.

The valuable silver sank with the ship to a depth of over 2,500 meters. For decades, this treasure rested untouched on the seabed – until modern salvage technology made it possible in 2017 to recover large portions of this historic precious metal. Today, part of this recovered silver is used for this exclusive Krugerrand edition, turning each individual coin into a tangible piece of contemporary history.
