Design: Your coin combines the application of robust colour over intricate engraving to bring to life these artistic depictions of WONDER WOMAN™, SUPERMAN™ and BATMAN™—the "trinity" of the DC COMICS™ Universe. Throughout the image's background, carefully positioned polygon shapes are contrasted through the use of frosted finishes in order to create a stunning "shattered glass" effect; this visual element is highly symbolic, for it represents the "shattering" of what was established in Man of Steel™ and the challenges that lie ahead after Superman has revealed himself to the world. Within three of these shapes are the iconic SUPER HEROES™ themselves: WONDER WOMAN™ in a battle-ready stance as she holds her Phoenician-inscribed sword before her; SUPERMANTM appears as a pillar of strength, his gaze steady on the horizon while the viewer's eye is naturally drawn to the iconic red and yellow S-shield emblazoned across his chest; and BATMAN™, whose gritty expression beneath his cowl adds a brooding feel to this likeness of the seasoned crime-fighter. Each super hero's name is engraved next to them in the intricate Kryptonian syllabic writing system established by renowned Canadian linguist Dr. Christine Schreyer.
