2024 Solomon Islands $2 1-oz Silver Fender® Jaguar Guitar Shaped Colorized Reverse Proof

Let This “Big Cat” Purr In Your Collection Of Music-Themed Coins

The Fender® Jaguar guitar took some getting used to when it was first introduced to the rock ‘n’ roll scene in 1962. Lackluster sales saw the “Big Cat” getting shelved in 1975, a move that many assumed was the end for the fierce-looking axe. But thanks to the rise of punk and alternative music in the 1980s, the Jaguar saw a renaissance in popularity as the genre’s struggling musicians descended on pawn shops and second-hand music stores to arm themselves with guitars that their limited budgets could afford. Buoyed by such iconic guitar legends as Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, the Red Hot Chili Peppers’ John Frusciante, The Smiths’ Johnny Marr, Arcade Fire’s Win Butler, and Sonic Youth’s Thurston Moore; the Jaguar soon became the weapon of choice for aspiring young grunge rockers. This amazing Fender Jaguar guitar-shaped legal tender coin can be your next choice when you augment the music wing of your collection!

Commemorative Coin Replicates Jaguar’s Original Design

Struck in a full ounce of highly pure 99.99% silver, this officially licensed coin replicates the Jaguar’s shorter scale and extra fret that made for a faster, more comfortable playing style. Its relatively smaller size notwithstanding, the Jaguar was Fender’s fourth and last instrument in its original standard guitar lineup. It was billed as the company’s new top-line guitar and was nothing if not feature laden. Here it has been faithfully recreated as a colorized coin that’s sure to strike all the right chords for your inner guitarist. Plus, this coin also comes with a Reverse Proof finish. Unlike a regular proof that features frosted details rising over mirror-like fields, a Reverse Proof finish coin was expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce mirror-like details rising over beautifully frosted fields!

Don’t Get “Strung” Out By This Coin’s Low Limited Edition

If you’re old enough to remember the original marketing campaign for the Jaguar (And if you’re not, you really ought to look into it!), Fender launched it with the slogan, “You won’t part with yours either,” featuring musicians and their guitars in improbable situations. Those settings included such scenes of rockers riding a motorcycle, skydiving, sitting in a dentist’s chair, and surfing!
