First Marvel Coin !!
Made of 1oz pure silver, this COMIX™ Coin displays a coloured image of the Amazing Fantasy #15 comic cover from 1962 – the first appearance of Spider-Man™! Some parts have been left engraved to let the silver glisten. To mimic the comic book, it is crafted into a rectangular shape and coloured on all four sides to represent the spine and pages!
To confirm the coin as legal tender, the Public Seal of Niue is on the reverse. A turning page has also been engraved to keep that comic feel. The worldwide mintage is set to just 5,000 coins.
Niue
Island Country
Niue is a small island nation in the South Pacific Ocean. It’s known for its limestone cliffs and coral-reef dive sites. Migrating whales swim in Niue's waters between July and October. In the southeast is the Huvalu Forest Conservation Area, where trails through fossilized coral forests lead to the Togo and Vaikona chasms. The northwest is home to the rock pools of Avaiki Cave and the naturally formed Talava Arches. ― Google
