Silver Ounce 2022 G.I. Joe 40th Anniversary, Coin from Niue - detailed information

Niue, a sovereign state in free association with New Zealand, uses two official legal tender currencies. The New Zealand Dollar is the circulation currency for daily transactions, while the government also authorises legal tender coins in the Niue Dollar currency for collector's purposes.

A number of mints issue a large variety of commemorative, bullion and collector coins under the authority of Niue. These coins are dedicated to historical or general popular culture themes not related to Niue itself. Many of them are in standard bullion sizes - typically, one ounce of silver (abbreviated as 1 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum). Many of these feature characters and themes from popular culture.

The Mint says about this coin:
Featuring the first cover of the comic book series in 1982, this rectangular 1oz pure silver coin shows the Joe team in full colour with the 40th-anniversary logo at the top. The design includes a mirrored border and a mix of light and heavy frosting on the text and speech bubbles. This is a piece that will certainly stand out in your collection! To confirm it as legal tender, the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth ll is engraved on the obverse.

This officially licensed coin arrives in a G.I. Joe-themed box, that includes the anniversary logo and an eye-catching image of Snake Eyes. Inside this specially designed box, the coin is held in an acrylic case, perfect for showcasing while keeping it protected from any forces. Printed on the back of the box is a Certificate of Authenticity and the coin’s unique number in the mintage of 1,982 - reflecting the year of the launch.
