Each of the 2017 Proof Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Silver Coins in this five-coin release from BH Mayer Mint arrives inside of unbelievable shippers. Individual ½ oz coins are set inside of circular tins with colorized depictions of the individual character represented on that coin.
Former professional wrestler Dave Bautista played the role of Drax the Destroyer. Drax is formerly an intergalactic criminal in the comic storyline but has since joined the Guardians of the Galaxy alongside Star Lord, Rocket, Groot, and Gamora. Though he has a rough and intimidating appearance, Drax is also sensitive and will give his all to protect his fellow Guardians.
Each of the 2017 ½ oz Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Drax Silver Coins in this product listing is ultra high relief specimens, with this stunning visual finish achieved through the Mayer Mint’s use of Smartminting technology.
On the obverse of all Guardians of the Galaxy Silver Coins you’ll find the image of Queen Elizabeth II. Her right-profile portrait on these Cook Islands-issued coins comes from 1998 and is the fourth-generation depiction of the Queen, which was created by Ian Rank-Broadley.
The reverse of the 2017 ½ oz Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Drax Silver Coin includes the colorized image of Drax with a background of skeletons. Drax is from a race of primitive beings which are naïve and underdeveloped, but he possesses the fierce determination and brute strength necessary to serve as a Guardian of the Galaxy.
BH Mayer Mint was founded in Germany in 1871, and continues its operations today under fifth-generation leadership. The coins of the Guardians of the Galaxy Series are available today from Mayer Mint for individual purpose, and there is also a five-coin set available online as well.
