Product Description
2015 $10 1/2 oz Fine Silver Superman Coin – DC Comics Originals: Gauntlet
The DC Comics Originals series has a classic, slightly retro style, recalling the look most comic book fans grew up with and remember fondly. Basing itself on the DC Comics style of the 1980s, this series celebrates one of the most established looks for the DC Comics pantheon of superheroes, and a few of its villains too.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- First wave in an exciting new series! Celebrate DC Comics’ greatest superheroes presented in their classic form, just the way you love them!
- First-time appearance of villains Mister Mxyzptlk, Brainiac, Quex-Ul, Faora, General Zod and Lex Luthor on a Royal Canadian Mint coin!
- While selective colour recreates Superman’s classic look, the use of laser engraving technology on the villains recreates the look of inked comic book art, while striking a contrast between sheen and shadows that allows the characters to emerge from the background and gives the design its multi-layered feel.
- Where the past and present meet! Traditional engraving and finishes meet selective colour and cutting edge laser engraving, giving this coin depth, affect and the illusion of movement.
DESIGN
The reverse design mimics a comic book splash page with a coloured and engraved rendition of Superman, flanked by those who would seek to destroy him. In mid-flight, the Man of SteelTM is on the defensive as he faces off against his foes: Superman’s greatest nemesis, Lex Luthor, is prominent at the far right in his battle suit; Phantom Zone criminals General Zod, Faora and Quex-Ul are above Lex Luthor in an attack position; and a robotic Brainiac flies alongside the diminutive Mister Mxyzptlk to complete the hoard.
