GOLLUM & SFII RYU CHIBI (2021 NZ Mint)
The second pair of Chibi for July launches today and we see the continuation of the Lord of the Rings subset with a fifth release, and the first in a whole new subset. Gollum is the neat looking character from the Tolkien behemoth and may well turn out to be the most popular of them to date.
The all-new coin is one that dips into the videogame world, joining Halo, and features the smash-hit Street Fighter II franchise. Yes, we did see a release of this character in LPM’s new Street Fighter series, but this is a good opportunity to see the difference in visual style between a Chibi coin and the more realistic approach of regular art. Quite different, so you can easily pick the one you like best. Both will no doubt see follow on coins in the monthes to come, with LPM already having confirmed two more at least.
Available now for $99 USD, or you can opt for the ‘Premium Selection’ to get one of the first 200 numbered certificates for $199 USD. We’ve added this pair to our very comprehensive profile of the series, filled with images and videos, all neatly laid out by sub-sets.
