WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 18, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The United States Mint (Mint), in collaboration with Warner Bros. Discovery Global Consumer Products (WBDGCP), will begin accepting pre-orders for the second release in the Comic Art Coin and Medal program depicting Batman^™ on Thursday, September 25 at noon EDT.  Products will be shipped during winter 2025.

Product options, pricing, and order limits are below.  To set up “Remind Me” alerts for each individual product, visit the product page.  Pricing for the gold product options is based on the Mint’s Pricing of Numismatic Gold, Commemorative Gold, Platinum, and Palladium Products Pricing Grid.

From the shadows, DC’s Dark Knight^™ emerges as the second release in our groundbreaking Comic Art Coin and Medal Program, which celebrates comic book art as a uniquely American art form.  Batman is newly etched in a proof finished 24-karat gold coin, fine silver medals, and later in a clad medal that depict the iconic Super Hero ready to fight crime in Gotham City^™.  These stunning products display Batman’s steadfast courage and his never-ending crusade for justice.

The obverse (heads) design depicts Batman leaping into action to protect those in need.  A decorative eagle, carved in stone, perches atop a Gotham City building behind him. The inscriptions are “LIBERTY,” “IN GOD WE TRUST,” and “2025” (24-karat gold coin); “LIBERTY” and “2025” (2.5-ounce silver medal); and “LIBERTY” (one-ounce silver medal).  Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna designed and sculpted the obverse. 

The reverse (tails) design features Batman against the background of Gotham City while the Bat-Signal shines brightly above.  The inscriptions are “UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,” “E PLURIBUS UNUM,” “$50,” “1/2 OZ,” and “.9999 FINE GOLD” (24-karat gold coin); “BATMAN” and “JUSTICE AND COURAGE” (2.5-ounce silver medal); and “BATMAN” and “JUSTICE AND COURAGE” (one-ounce silver medal). Mint Medallic Artist John P. McGraw designed the reverse, which was sculpted by Mint Chief Engraver Menna.

To complement these stunning designs, each 24-karat gold coin and silver medal is encapsulated and packaged in a presentation case and is accompanied by a Certificate of Authenticity (COA).  The 24-karat gold coin and the 2.5-ounce silver medal will each have a numbered COA, indicating the order in which the item was minted.

A Product Subscription Program is available for the one-ounce silver medal. Subscriptions are limited to five medals per household (household limits subject to change).  Sign up once and you will receive the next product released in the series after the date of your registration, then continue to receive products until you end your subscription or until the series ends.  For additional details about subscriptions, visit here.

The Mint has extended the subscription cutoff date for the Comic Art One Ounce Silver Medal depicting Superman^™ through September 22, 2025, allowing the subscription window for this medal to remain open until the product is ready to ship.
