Pure Silver Coin Depicts Sensational Arrival Of Wonder Woman™
There were a handful of female superheroes who appeared before Wonder Woman™ made her first appearance in the pages of All-Star Comics #8 published in October of 1941, but none have gone on to have the success that DC’s Amazonian Princess has had over the past 80-plus years. Typically, even the toughest female superheroes had to be bailed out of harm’s way by a male hero. Not Wonder Woman! Compassionate, stubborn, opinionated, competitive, and immortal, Wonder Woman is more than willing to kick some butt in the name of justice and equality! Buoyed by the response to her initial appearance, DC Comics quickly brought Wonder Woman to America in the pages of Sensation Comics #1—the first comic book to feature her on its cover. That iconic cover has been reproduced in full color on a limited-edition coin as part of the New Zealand Mint’s popular COMIX™ series!
Rectangular-Shaped Coin Shows Wonder Woman Taking On A Gang Of Thugs
Struck in a Troy ounce of highly pure 99.9% fine silver, the rectangular-shaped coin shows Wonder Woman taking on a gang of thugs on the streets of Washington, D.C. Her famous Bracelets of Submission are repelling the bullets fired by the crooks’ pistols and machine guns. The exciting scene is described with “THE SENSATIONAL NEW ADVENTURE STRIP CHARACTER – WONDER WOMAN!” To further mimic the original comic book, the coin has been colorized on four sides to represent the cover, spine, and pages. Small flashes of silver have been left on the cover to catch the light! This legal-tender $2 coin was also struck in gorgeous Proof condition meaning it was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies, and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields.
One Of The Top 100 Golden Age Comics Ever Published
Sensation Comics #1 was published in January of 1942 and is currently listed at #20 on Overstreet’s list of Top 100 Golden Age Comics. In the story, Wonder Woman, fresh from rescuing U.S. Army Air Force pilot Steve Trevor after he crashed on her homeland, brings him home to the United States where she assumes the identity of nurse Diana Prince so that she can remain near Steve. Soon, in order to earn money, she performs her “bullets and bracelets” routine for an adoring public, not realizing her promoter is stealing all the profits. An incredibly valuable comic book, a copy in 9.6/10 condition sold in 2017 for $399,100!
