Of the many twists and surprises offered up inThe Empire Strikes Back,one of the most memorable was the freezing of the heroic Han Solo in “carbonite,” a substance that kept him in suspended animation for transport. In a more typical adventure film of the day, it was the kind of event that would be resolved by a last-minute rescue before the end of the movie, but as the secondStar Warsfilm came to a close, Solo remained frozen and his fate uncertain. This iconic episode in the saga is celebrated by the 2022 Antique Niue Han Solo in Carbonite 1 oz Silver Coin.

  • Comes in aStar Wars-themed display box, encased in black velvet!
  • Issued in 2022, part of the New Zealand Mint’sStar WarsCollectibles series!
  • Limited mintage of only 5,000 pieces worldwide!
  • Contains 1 Troy oz of .999 Fine Silver.
  • Face value of $2 (NZD) backed by the state of Niue.
  • Arrives with a Certificate of Authenticity.
  • Obverse side shows a sculpture of Han Solo frozen in carbonite.
  • Reverse carries a portrait of Queen Elizabeth II.

Obverse

The coin’s obverse side is a sculpture of Han Solo in carbonite. It reproduces the cast of Harrison Ford’s face and a body double’s arms, legs, and torso that formed the original prop from the movie.

Reverse

On the coin’s reverse side is a legal tender portrait of Queen Elizabeth II, accompanied by the inscriptions “Elizabeth II,” “Niue,” “Two Dollars,” and “2022.” It also confirms the coin’s purity as “1 oz 999 Fine Silver” and bears the trademark and copyright of Lucasfilm Ltd.

History

The first sequel to the originalStar Warsfilm became famous for its surprising twists and a degree of narrative risk-taking unusual for adventure tales and space opera. Featuring the villains of the Galactic Empire avenging their defeat at the hands of the heroes in the prior film,The Empire Strikes Backincluded one of the most famously shocking revelations in the history of film — Darth Vader’sI am your father”— and saw the heroic Han Solo captured by the villains and sealed in suspended animation.
