2019 Tuvalu $1 1-oz Silver Wizard of Oz™ 80th Anniversary Proof
Commemorative Coin Celebrates a Beloved Classic of the Cinema
Based on Frank L. Baum’s delightful children’s book, The Wonderful Wizard of Oz, the 1939 film version staring Judy Garland is today regarded as a true icon of the cinema and one of the most beloved films of all time. In celebration of the 80th anniversary of The Wizard of Oz™, Australia’s prestigious and award-winning Perth Mint has issued an absolutely magical commemorative coin that’s sure to appeal to fans both young and old.
Officially licensed by Warner Bros. Entertainment Inc, this legal-tender masterpiece captures all the excitement and joy of the treasured classic. Depicting Scarecrow, Tin Man, the Cowardly Lion and Dorothy, the coin’s engaging design shows the foursome arm-in-arm as they follow the Yellow Brick Road towards the Emerald City of Oz. Plus, the addition of blazing and vibrant colorization effectively brings these cherished characters to life. Above them, the film’s title logo is seen with Dorothy’s ruby red slippers™ in full color incorporated into the design.
In addition, each fantastic coin in this offer comes in gorgeous Proof condition, meaning they were expertly crafted by the mint from hand-selected planchets, polished dies and multiple strikes to produce beautifully frosted details rising over mirror-like fields! Fans of the film will not be disappointed by this exciting coin!
There’s just one catch: The Perth Mint is striking just a paltry 5,000 of these colorized proof coins on behalf of the government of Tuvalu. When you consider the enormous fan base for both the film and Judy Garland combined with all the coin collectors and silver stackers who would like one of these coins, it becomes painfully evident that there are not nearly enough coins to go around.
Don’t’ wait for a house to fall on you or for flying monkeys to spirit you away; secure your 2019 Wizard of Oz 80th Anniversary One Ounce Silver Proof now before they’re all gone!
