When Black Panther first made an appearance in the Marvel Comics universe it signaled a positive change in the way that changing cultural views were being depicted in fiction. Prior to Black Panthers introduction, all of the superheroes in the Marvel universe were Caucasian. Black Panther was the first main character of color showcased as a superhero in Marvel Comics. Taking center stage in comics and now blockbuster movies, Black Panther and the world created around him, have had an inspiring and positive impact on pop culture. The introduction of more inclusive characters has also opened up Marvel Comics to new generations to appreciate. The Marvel Series of silver coins, by the Perth Mint, features some of the most prominent and beloved superheroes in the Marvel universe.

Obverse Design

The obverse of 2018 Tuvalu Black Panther Marvel Series 1 oz Silver Coin features the portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This right-profile relief was designed by sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998 for the Royal Mint of England. The design was featured on British coins until 2015 and on Australian coins until 2018. Today its no longer used in Britain and Australian, but is still seen on coins issued for some South Pacific nations like Tuvalu.
