Barbie 50th Anniversary 1 ounce Silver Proof

In 1959, the Barbie doll made her first appearance. She was an instant hit, and she is now one of the world's most famous and hottest-selling collectibles. To mark Barbie's 50th Anniversary in 2009, the Perth Mint in Australia has issued an exclusive limited edition commemorative Silver Dollar that is officially authorized and licensed by Mattel, the toy company that created the original doll in 1959. It is the world's first legal tender Barbie commemorative coin.

The coin is specially colorized, making it the perfect addition to any Barbie collection or coin collection - as well as the perfect gift for anyone who enjoyed playing with Barbie as a child.

The Barbie commemorative coin is a legal tender issue of Tuvalu, and it is struck in one full ounce of .999 pure silver. Each coin is struck to the highest Proof quality. The Perth Mint is one of the world's most prestigious mints, and its Proof coins are among the finest produced anywhere.

The coin depicts the special 50th anniversary "Barbie" logo and signature, together with Barbie's head and trademark ponytail, as well as a full-length doll to show her legendary "curves." The background of the coin features stars and is colorized with pink highlights. Only 20,000 coins will be issued, making it rarer than most Barbie dolls. Each coin comes with a numbered Certificate of Authenticity and is housed in a pink presentation case featuring the Barbie 50th anniversary logo.
