Look! Up in the Sky! It’s a Bird! It’s a Plane! It’s Superman! It’s our groundbreaking Comic Art Coin and Medal Program celebrating comic art as a uniquely American art form! This program honors Super Heroes who represent the best of American culture and values. This silver medal depicts Superman and his alter ego Clark Kent™ as symbols of hope and strength. Get the Man of Tomorrow™ rendered in fine silver. Both the Super Hero and his secret identity reflect truth, justice, and bravery in a distinct matte finish.

Obverse:
This design depicts Superman flying over his family farm. The Sun not only nurtures the farmland where a young Clark Kent was raised by his adoptive parents, it is also the primary source that fuels his incredible powers. Even so, it is the love, values, and inner strength instilled in him by Martha and Jonathan—Ma and Pa Kent—that ultimately made him a Super Hero. The inscription is “LIBERTY.”

Reverse:
This design explores the duality of identity inherent in the story of Superman and the concept of “the hero within.” Clark Kent is shown as a young adult, deep in thought as he watches a plane fly overhead. Although still young, Clark is mature enough to be aware of his capabilities and to contemplate what is possible. His father, Pa Kent, looks on in the distance and knows it is only a matter of time before Clark leaves home to fulfill his destiny. Inscriptions are “SUPERMAN” and “HOPE AND STRENGTH.”
