Product Description
2015 $30 2 oz Pure Silver Coin – Looney Tunes Classic Scenes: The Rabbit of Seville featuring Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd
Bugs. Daffy. Tweety. Sylvester. For many Canadians, the mere mention of these names evoke fond childhood memories of spending Saturday mornings in front of a television, transfixed and spellbound as these characters—and many more—outsmarted each other in situations that could only exist in our imaginations.
SPECIAL FEATURES
- Crafted from 99.99% pure silver, this coin is striking thanks to the combined use of selective colour, expert engraving and multiple finishes.
- An ode to a classic Looney Tunes cartoon, the coin’s reverse design depicts a scene from The Rabbit of Seville featuring Bugs Bunny and Elmer Fudd.
- Each coin comes packaged in a box that mimics an ACME crate, which was a fixture in Looney Tunes shorts whenever a character would have something shipped to them!
- A sentimental coin for any Looney Tunes fan, particularly for those with fond memories of this animation classic.
- A wonderful collectible for those with a passion for animation and its history.
DESIGN
The reverse image, provided by Warner Bros., brings together selective colouring and expert engraving in this ode to the famous and much-loved Looney Tunes short, The Rabbit of Seville. Seen in side-profile and in colour, Elmer Fudd is seated in a barber chair as he leans forward to peer into a mirror held up by a self-possessed Bugs Bunny; upon seeing his reflection, he is shocked to find Bugs’ barbershop antics have resulted in a flowery “mane” of bright red flowers on the top of his bald head. Enhanced by the use of multiple finishes, the engraved background offers a depiction of the stage setting, as seen in the 1950 animated short.
