Show your devotion to the dark side with our latest Star Wars™ Chibi® Coin! Featuring the menacing Sith™ lord, Count Dooku™, this will be an excellent addition to your collection.
The Meaning of Chibi:
For those of you who aren’t familiar, Chibi is Japanese slang for short or small and is a style of caricature originating in Japan. It is commonly used to portray stylised versions of Japanese anime or manga characters, with their large heads and tiny bodies, adding a cuteness factor. At New Zealand Mint, we have used this art form and innovated it on a pure silver coin featuring some of your favourite characters in pop culture.
The Infamous Villain, Count Dooku:
Count Dooku was a central figure in the Clone Wars. Once a Jedi™, trained by Yoda™, he became disillusioned with the Jedi Order and thirsted for greater power. Dooku voluntarily left the light side behind and became Darth Sidious’ dark side disciple, taking the secret name Darth Tyranus™ and leading the Separatist™ army. Dooku advanced Sidious’s secret plot to take over the galaxy but forgot that betrayal is the nature of the Sith.
Fine Craftsmanship:
Crafted from 1oz pure silver, the coin is uniquely coloured and shaped to show Count Dooku as seen in the prequel trilogy. Some relief has also been applied to give an epic 3D effect. Turn it to the back, and you will see the Public Seal of Niue, which confirms its legal tender status.
