The Robert Pattison headlined The Batman movie gets a three-ounce silver coin bar replete with high relief With a premiere in early 2022, the Matt Reeves helmed, Robert Pattinson starred superhero film, The Batman, launched to excellent reviews, quite something in an industry suffering from superhero fatigue. The film eschewed the usual mass of CGI, and instead focused on what was essentially a detective story, taking this most iconic of comic [...]

Bullion round-up 15: Batman, birds, dragons, scientists, monkeys, and a Slavic sea spirit, Does it get more varied than that! Part two is here, although we called it round-up 15 for clarity, and there's another varied selection from around the world. The Komodo Dragon literally just came out, and barely scraped in, but it's a great design, especially in antiqued form. A couple of Perth Mint show specials using the pretty [...]

In our second catch-up of New Zealand Mint popular-culture releases, we have the usual selection of Chibi, Harry Potter, DC Comics, Star Wars, and more, encompassing a decent selection of styles and formats.

Batman is back with another reboot and another actor playing the iconic role. The NZ Mint is prepared for it. I think we're on safe ground assuming anybody reading this will know who Batman is, having been around since 1939, and that you're also aware of the character's various incarnations over the years, so we'll head straight onto the new coin. Also varying considerably over the last decade, is the variety [...]

Batman Returns with an impressive new 80 mm tall silver miniature of the Caped Crusader crusading It's been a while since we've seen a silver miniature emanate from the New Zealand Mint, with only Grogu from the mega-hit The Mandalorian show coming out, but we have seen others dip their toes in. The Mint of Gdańsk launched a very well done Geralt of Rivia statue, and Coins Today have dipped into [...]

Holy investment opportunity, Batman!!
