There’s no more lovable character from the original Ghostbusters films than Slimer. The oddly shaped, big-eating ghoul debuted in the first film in the franchise but had no name throughout the original script. It wasn’t until the movie was in production and he was referred to because he “slimed people,” that he became known as Slimer to fans and characters in the film.
Your 2017 1 oz Tuvalu Ghostbusters Slimer Silver Coin is available today inside of a brilliant Ghostbusters-themed box that mimics the appearance of the charged boxes the Ghostbusters captured ghosts and ghouls in for storage. Each coin includes an individually numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
On the obverse of all Tuvalu Ghostbusters Slimer Silver Coins you’ll find the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty is captured in this design by Ian Rank-Broadley, and it serves as the fourth-generation depiction in use on many commonwealth and British coins since 1998.
The reverse of the coin features the image of Slimer. Captured in his full, bright-green glory, the beloved ghoul is captured in the draw of the Ghostbusters’ signature containment units as he’s sucked in for capture and storage. Engravings include “Ghostbusters,” with the infamous logo of the group serving as the “O” in the name.
