Commemorate the heroes of the rebellion with one of its greatest heroes – Han Solo, by snagging these 2017 2 oz Niue Star Wars Han Solo High Relief Silver Proof Coins. Struck by the New Zealand Mint, these silver coins join the growing repertoire of Star Wars themed coins backed by the government of Niue.
The latest minting techniques make this ultra high-relief design possible – allowing the image to ‘pop out’ further than ever! This not only makes the design more realistic, it also adds a subtle, unique luster to the coin that can’t be replicated using a normal minting process.
Each of these coins is struck using 2 troy ounces of 0.999 pure silver. Moreover, they are assigned legal tender status in Niue with face values of $2 (NZD) each.
The coin’s reverse bears the image of Han Solo, depicting him being entombed in carbonite. The expressions, the posture, and fine details closely replicate the famous scene. In fact, the high-relief design adds to the realism of this image and will immediately transport you back to that terrible sequence of events that led to Han Solo’s entombment.
The coin comes ensconced in a black velvet branded Star Wars case that makes it a truly unique and thoughtful gift or even a great addition to your own showcase!
These 2017 2 oz Niue Star Wars Han Solo High Relief Silver Proofs are essential to any Star Wars collection. Furthermore, their pure silver content makes them great tangible assets as well. With a limited mintage of just 5000, these silver proofs will fly off the shelves sooner than later!
