This coin represents the sixth release in the Marvel Bullion Series produced by The Perth Mint, showcasing six iconic Marvel characters. It follows earlier releases in the series, including Spider Man, which have since sold out.
Captain America is instantly recognizable by his costume featuring the American flag motif and his iconic, nearly indestructible shield, which he wields both defensively and as a projectile weapon. The character is the alter ego of Steve Rogers, a physically frail young man who was transformed into the pinnacle of human strength and endurance through an experimental serum developed to support the United States government during World War II. Near the war’s conclusion, Rogers was frozen in ice, surviving in suspended animation until his revival in the modern era. Though often challenged by the realities of a world far removed from his own time, Captain America remains a symbol of honor, leadership, and integrity, ultimately becoming a long standing leader of the Avengers.
