Silver Two Ounces 2020 Batman Mask, 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 - for example, two ounces of silver (abbreviated as 2 oz Ag, where "Ag" comes from the Latin word for silver, Argentum).

This coin is part of New Zealand Mint collection dedicated to DC Comics characters and themes, and features the iconic Batman's Mask.

The Mint says about it:
"This incredible coin replicates Batman’s cowl in perfect detail. A unique collectible it follows the shape of the Dark Knight’s head but is still, in fact, a legal tender coin!

The obverse bears the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The use of a weighty 2oz of pure silver allows for great depth in its design.

The coin is nestled in black velvet inside an extra-large, quality coin case - perfectly angled to display the 3D aesthetic of the coin. A Certificate of Authenticity fits neatly inside the coin case. Along with the Batman themed outer box, this coin is a collector’s dream."
