The modern superhero archetype had many ancestors and precedents, among them the pulp fiction heroes of the early Twentieth Century, but it had one undisputed prototype: a figure so iconic that he has remained a standard-bearer for colorful comic book heroics since his debut. Superman, also known as the Man of Steel, founded the superhero as a recognizable character type and is still celebrated and widely beloved nearly a century later, now commemorated by the 2022 3 oz Niue Silver Classic Superhero Superman Coin from the New Zealand Mint.
Coin Highlights:
The character of Superman was the brainchild of the young writing and artistic team of Jerry Siegel and Joe Shuster in the 1930s and emerged in something close to his modern form in 1938. From the earliest days, he was the best known and most popular of what would eventually grow into a vast pantheon of comic book superheroes and has continued in the foremost ranks of cape-and-tights-wearing paragons of justice right down to the present day. No collection of DC Comics-related collectibles would be complete without the Man of Steel.
This 2022 Niue Silver Classic Superhero Superman Coin pays tribute to the hero with a vividly-rendered montage of classic comic book imagery executed in three ounces of pure silver with a brilliant mirrored finish. JM Bullion ships each coin fully insured in a themed, velvet-lined collector’s box with its own Certificate of Authenticity. With only a thousand pieces available worldwide, the team advises collectors and fans to order early: opportunities to own this extraordinary coin will fly by fast.
The coin’s reverse features a detailed montage of classic Superman images with pair of high-relief portraits of the Man of Steel in the foreground. They’re accompanied by the iconic “S” shield, the inscription “3 oz 999 Fine Silver SUPERMAN” and the copyright and trademark of DC.
The obverse side features a profile effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II as it appears on legal tender throughout the British Commonwealth. It carries the inscriptions “Elizabeth II,” “Niue,” “Ten Dollars” and “2022.”
