2026 Niue 5 g Silver $2 Looney Tunes: Acme TNT Plunger Foil

---

This innovative five-gram silver coin from Niue brings the classic animated rivalry of Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner to life. Struck in 0.999 fine silver, the foil coin celebrates characters that first appeared on television screens in 1949. Issued as legal tender with a face value of two dollars, this release is limited to a worldwide mintage of 2,000 pieces. The obverse of the foil captures the explosive comedy of the cartoon series, featuring Wile E. Coyote alongside a mushroom cloud explosion and the infamous ACME TNT plunger. While the standard version showcases this classic scene, a special chase variant exists with a mere ten percent probability, depicting Wile E. Coyote in his post-explosion state. On the reverse, the design showcases a classic desert landscape featuring the swift Road Runner alongside the iconic lettering BEEP BEEP. The New Zealand Mint seal is present alongside inscriptions confirming the weight and purity of the metal, reading 5g 999 Pure Silver Looney Tunes.
