Description

Obverse

The coin’s face elegantly displays Ian Rank-Broadley’s universally admired depiction of the late Queen Elizabeth II, marking its legitimacy as tender. Surrounding the portrait are the inscriptions “ELIZABETH II,” “NIUE,” “2022,” and “TWO DOLLARS.”

Reverse

Darth Vader stands prominently on the coin’s reverse, lightsaber in hand, with the name “VADER” to his left side and a shadowy outline of his imposing armor in the backdrop. Tiny inscriptions around the edge further validate the coin’s weight, silver purity, and Lucasfilm’s proprietary rights.

Historical Note

The New Zealand Mint’s celebrated Star Wars collection brilliantly captures the essence of the franchise’s legendary characters. Darth Vader, the transformed Sith Lord once known as the heroic Anakin Skywalker, holds a distinct space in cinematic history. His descent into the Dark Side has mesmerized audiences across two movie trilogies and several individual films and TV episodes. Representing one of film’s most iconic antagonists, this silver coin is a treasure for fans and collectors alike.
