Star Wars Silver Coins
The New Zealand Mint recently launched silver coin sets based on a little movie franchise that perhaps you’ve heard of – Star Wars! There are currently two four-coin sets to choose from, one featuring the "good guys" from the original three movies, and one featuring the "bad guys". Both sets come in impressive collectible packages that also play authentic movie sound effects! Future releases will include two additional four-coin sets featuring characters from the three “prequel” movies.
The obverse (front side) of the 1oz .999 Silver coins depict your favorite characters from the Star Wars films in breathtaking color. The reverse (back side) of each coin features the likeness of Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth II sovereign of the commonwealth of Niue. The coins are all legal tender of Niue Island, a small island country in the South Pacific Ocean.
The Rebel Alliance set (the good guys) Open the Millennium Falcon case and you’ll hear authentic movie sound effects of the ship’s iconic “jump to light speed”. Coins include the following character duos:-
- - Luke Skywalker / Princess Leia
- - Obi-Wan Kenobi / Yoda
- - R2-D2 / C-3PO
- - Han Solo / Chewbacca
The Dark Side set (the bad guys) Open the Darth Vader case and you’ll hear the very recognizable authentic movie sound effects of Darth Vader breathing. Coins include the following:
- - Darth Vader
- - Emperor Palpatine
- - Death Star
- - Stormtrooper
The proof-like Star Wars Silver Coins are being produced in very limited mintages by The New Zealand Mint and will be hugely popular with Star Wars fans and coin-collectors alike. So don’t wait, use the Force (or your web browser) and visit www.silvertowne.com to Get Your Coin Sets Today!
