The Groot character you’ll find on these new 2017 ½ oz Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Groot Silver Coins is not the one fans met in the first film. At the end of the first film, to save his friends, Groot sacrifices himself so that his friends can survive.
All of the 2017 Guardians of the Galaxy Silver Coins are ½ oz specimens that feature .999 pure silver and have a stunning ultra high relief strike. This gives the coins added depth and beauty of design, and were made possible by the Mayer Mint’s use of Smartminting technology.
Your individual 2017 ½ oz Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Groot Silver Coin arrives inside of a collectible tin that features theatrical images from the feature film itself. Each of the coins features its own collectible tin, making the entire set a must-have for serious collectors and fans of the film franchise.
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 side of the 2017 ½ oz Cook Islands Guardians of the Galaxy Groot Silver Coin includes the colorized image of a young and playful Groot. Following the destruction of Groot in the first film, Rocket found a single twig which he was able to use to produce a baby Groot, bringing this lovable character back to life for the second film.
