Silver Ounce 2023 Transformers - Starscream, 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 famous movie characters.

This coin is part of a range featuring characters from the Transformers movies, and shows Starscream.

The mint says about it:
Starscream is a fan-favourite and cultural icon known for his ceaseless pursuit of power and insidious schemes. From his notable jet mode to his silver tongue, he embodies the epitome of Decepticon might and cunning.

Officially licensed, the coin features a coloured image of the Decepticon as seen in his 1984 debut. The design highlights his sleek form, menacing gaze, and striking colour scheme - It’s sure to tingle your nostalgia! The unmistakable Transformers logo and year have been engraved and frosted. To complete the design, a mirror finish background has been applied.

On the obverse is the Public Seal of Niue, confirming that your coin is legal tender. The display box is made with quality materials and is Transformers-themed. Printed on the back are a Certificate of Authenticity and the coin’s unique number in the limited mintage.
