Design Details

Obverse - Superman Soars Above the Kent Farm

Designed by U.S. Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna, the obverse features Superman in a bold pose flying above the Kent family farm. The image embodies Superman's enduring role as a symbol of hope, strength, and humility born from the American heartland.

Reverse - Clark Kent's Path to Destiny

Sculpted by U.S. Mint Medallic Artist Joseph V. Noorigian, the reverse features young Clark Kent seated on a fence, gazing toward the sky as his father looks on from a distance. A plane passes overhead, hinting at the flight and freedom that await the young hero. The rural backdrop represents Smallville and symbolizes the beginning of Clark's heroic journey.

Dean Cain Signature

Each coin comes with a label hand-signed by Superman himself—Dean Cain, the actor who portrayed Superman in the television series Lois & Clark: The New Adventures of Superman. 

Trusted Quality

Certified a perfect PF 70 Ultra Cameo (UCAM) by NGC, this coin displays deeply mirrored fields and frosted reliefs. Each coin has also been designated First Day of Issue, meaning NGC received it within 24 hours of its official U.S. Mint release.

Comic Art Coin & Medal Program

The Comic Art Coin & Medal Program was created by the U.S. Mint with DC Comics to celebrate the influence of comic art in American culture. Each release features an officially licensed design struck in precious metal, combining DC's characters and storytelling with the Mint's craftsmanship to create the ultimate comic book collectible.
