4,500 doubloons

Arizona — U.S.A. Premium Tier VI Battleship.

USS Arizona, the second Pennsylvania-class battleship, was laid down in March 1914 and entered service two years later. During World War I, she was part of Battleship Division 8. Later, the battleship was transferred to the Pacific Fleet, where she primarily participated in exercises during the 1920s and 30s. In the early 1940s, the ship underwent a major overhaul. During the Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor, she was hit by several bombs that caused an explosion in the main battery magazines, resulting in the loss of the ship and more than 1,000 crew members. A National Memorial was unveiled at the site of the tragedy in 1962.
