Royal Canadian Mint Reveals New Superman Coin

The Royal Canadian Mint has released seven limited edition coins featuring the most iconic of all comic book heroes, Superman.

In honour of the 75th anniversary of the DC Comics’ character, not only were stamps released to commemorate the milestone but now there will be coins. According to The Canadian Press, the coins feature an engraved message reading “75 years of Superman” in the character’s native language, Kryptonian, and one of the coins depicts Superman flying above Metropolis with the famous Fortress of Solitude in the background. The 14-karat gold coin sells for $750 and is supposed to be like the original design of Superman’s Canadian co-creator, Joe Shuster. The other six coins have a price range from $29.75 to $129.75. The designs include a 3-D hologram of Superman flying and an almost pure silver coin of Superman in his latest uniform.

The coins can be ordered directly from the Mint at 1-800-267-1871 in Canada (1-800-268-6468 in the USA), or on their website.
