From the Royal Canadian Mint: Looney Tunes Coins
What began as an advertising effort to promote sheet music quickly became a solidified part of pop-culture. In 1930, company Warner Bros. dipped their toes in the new and exciting pool of cartoon animation. Planning to use animated shorts to promote their music, Warner Bros introduced the world to their first animated character, Bosko the Ink-Kid who stared in the cartoon short, “Sinkin’ in the Bathtub.” After several years of competition with the creative minds at Walt Disney Studios, Warner Bros broke through with Porky Pig, Daffy Duck and of course, Bugs Bunny. Warner Bros. was able to syndicate their shorts which later grew into full-length movies, television series an even video games.
The Looney Tunes gang quickly rooted themselves into the hearts and culture of America and is still to this day, aired on television. To celebrate the colorful history of Looney Tunes, The Royal Canadian Mint released this playful, commemorative coin series in 2015.
Widely celebrated for their consistent quality and unique releases, the Royal Canadian Mint continues to uphold their high standards with the Looney Tunes Commemorative coin series. Each coin in the Loony Tunes series features different members from the Looney Tune gang. In addition to having vibrant, colorized releases, each coin comes with original Mint packaging from the Royal Canadian Mint!
