While America is knock off its meter still trying to apologise why we still make pennies , Canada is hard at work celebrating the most iconic superhero of all time . The Royal Canadian Mint has announcedthe release of seven special coins to memorialize Superman ’s seventy-fifth day of remembrance , worth anywhere from $ 29.75 to $ 750 Canadian .
Here are the seven coins with their values :
• A $ 10 silver coin , showing vintage Superman :
• A $ 15 silver-tongued coin , showing New - day loony toons :
• A $ 20 hunky-dory silver coin , anticipate “ Man of Steel ” and featuring a Jim Lee Superman :
• A $ 20 hunky-dory silver coin , showing Superman ’s entropy - shell :
• A $ 20 hunky-dory silver medal “ Metropolis ” coin with a hologram featuring Superman fly above the city
• A lenticular 50 - penny coin and tender set where Superman “ transforms ” from Greco-Roman to modern
• A $ 75 , 14 - karat Au “ The Early Years ” coin featuring Joe Shuster ’s Superman from issue # 1 :
you’re able to order them all herewhile supplies last ( a few of them are special ) .
Now , as you might surmise , these cost somewhat more than their time value — the holographic 50 - cent piece and stamp stage set is at the bottom at only $ 29.75 Canadian , while the $ 75 gilt coin tops the list at $ 750 ( yes , 10 times the price of the coin ) .
Still , it ’s skillful that Canada can be discommode to celebrate the seventy-fifth anniversary of one of the twentieth century ’s most popular and enduring characters , as well as the Canadian ( Shuster ) who co - created him . So how is America honor Superman ’s American co - creator Jerry Siegel?Oh well , I imagine it ’s estimable than nothing .
