And today we will unbox a Star Wars themed coin from the Island Nation of Niue that honors everybody’s favorite Sith apprentice, Darth Vader.
The coin is one of several coins struck in 2015 to honor Star Wars. 2015 has been a celebration of sorts for the famed science-fiction franchise, which has seen a rebirth since it was purchased by Walt Disney. The recently released Star Wars: The Force Awakens returns Carrie Fisher, Harrison Ford, and Mark Hamill to their iconic roles.
The Force Awakens was released to widespread critical acclaim and boffo box-office receipts because it recaptures the magic of the sci-fi soap opera and gives fans the movie that they have been clamoring for since Return of the Jedi marked the end of the film’s original trilogy.
The 2016 Niue Star Wars: Darth Vader one-ounce silver coin recaptures the moment audiences got their first glimpse of him. The coin we unbox comes in a black core NGC holder with a special insert.
