Why add this 2016 Batman: The Dark Knight Colorized Silver Proof to your collection?
2016 marks the 30th Anniversary of artist/writer Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns. Miller's description of an aging Batman forced out of retirement and into a dystopian Gotham City to fight crime unleashed a new generation of comic writers and filmmakers. This proof coin, issued by the Island of Fiji with a limited mintage of 3,000, was struck from 2 Troy oz. of .999 fine silver with a vibrantly colored rendering of the iconic hero.
Gothic Style Batman Image
The reverse features a vertically divided design, with a frosted field on the left inscribed "THE DARK KNIGHT". The right depicts a colorized image of an aged, grim Batman splattered in blood, with raised fist poised to strike, contrasted against a red background.
The obverse depicts the Island of Fiji coat of arms, inscribed "FIJI 2016," "2oz.," ".999 FINE SILVER" and "2 DOLLARS."
