With its Star Wars collectibles, the New Zealand Mint celebrates icons of one of the world’s longest-running and most influential media franchises. One of the most unexpected of those icons has been Boba Fett, originally cast as a minor villain inThe Empire Strikes Backmore than forty years ago, but whose mystique as one of the galaxy’s greatest bounty hunters and most formidable badasses has only grown over the years since. The age of online streaming television has seen him reborn, played by Temuera Morrison, helming his own show and making famous guest-starring appearances in the hit seriesThe Mandalorian.The New Zealand Mint celebrates this iconic crossover with the 2022 Proof Niue Mandalorian Boba Fett 1 oz Gold Coin.
Highlights:
The 2022 Gold Proof Niue Mandalorian Boba Fett Coin features the frosted elements and mirrored finish of a true proof-quality collectible, and it ships in a themed presentation case inside a protective acrylic capsule. Each coin is fully insured by Provident Metals and comes with its own Certificate of Authenticity.
Obverse
The coin’s obverse side features Ian Rank-Broadley’s globally recognized effigy of the late Queen Elizabeth II, confirming it as legal tender. It is accompanied by the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “NIUE,” “2022” and “25 DOLLARS.”
Reverse
The reverse side of this coin shows Boba Fett in action,in the middle of combat against remnants of the evil Galactic Empire that he once served. An inscription confirms the coin’s weight and silver contents at the rim.
History
Boba Fett’s visual design and attitude captured the imaginations of generations of fans starting with his first screen appearance over forty years ago. Those fans kept his legacy alive and saw to it that the franchise kept revisiting him or building ties to him in new movies and shows. His emergence to prominence in the 21st century has been like nothing ever done with the character before, and there’s surely more to come — and more iconic moments for the New Zealand Mint’s bullion collectibles to commemorate — in the future.
