2016 - $10 - 1/2 oz. Fine Silver – Batman v Superman: Dawn of JusticeTM - Logo

Fearing the actions of a god-like SUPER HERO^TM left unchecked, Gotham City's own formidable, forceful vigilante takes on Metropolis' most revered, modern-day saviour, while the world wrestles with what sort of hero it really needs. And with BATMAN^TM and SUPERMAN^TM at war with one another, a new threat quickly arises, putting mankind in greater danger than it's ever known before.

Established with firm Canadian roots, SUPERMAN^TM was the first SUPER HERO^TM, spawning countless new characters in the DC COMICS^TM pantheon.  He was the inspiration for a new archetype that not only still exists today, but is more popular than ever.  Many important Canadian visionaries continue to shape the DC COMICS^TM Universe even today, lending their talents as storytellers and further building on the history that began in 1938.

While debate rages over whether he is a "saviour" or a "false god," SUPERMAN^TM has become widely known following the destruction of METROPOLIS^TM in Man of Steel^TM. Meanwhile, BATMAN^TM has always preferred to remain in the shadows and rarely allows more than a fleeting glimpse of him in action; as a result, the DARK KNIGHT^TM is considered a vigilante by most, and a possible myth by others. The two characters seem worlds apart—particularly when one possesses superpowers and the other relies on stealth—yet they share a common purpose in the fight for justice. The coin's reverse symbolically brings together their two logos to create a single one, which embodies both the differences and similarities between these iconic SUPER HEROES^TM.
