Skywalker has one of the most intricate ties to the other characters in the Star Wars film franchise. He is the son of fallen Jedi master Anakin Skywalker, better known to many as Darth Vader. He is the twin brother of Princess Leia, and the uncle of the newly-introduced character Kylo Ren, son of Leia and Han Solo.
On the reverse of each of these silver coins in the Star Wars classic collection is the image of Skywalker. He is depicted standing beside his X-34 landspeeder on his home planet of Tatooine in an image taken from Star Wars: A New Hope. Skywalker was introduced in the Star Wars storyline in the first film of the original trilogy as a simple farm boy from the planet of Tatooine. He never knew of his lineage and his potential place in the universe until he crossed paths with Obi Wan-Kenobi.
The obverse of the 2017 1 oz Silver Niue Star Wars Luke Skywalker Coin bears the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. This image was designed in 1998 by Sir Ian Rank-Broadley, and captures Her Majesty in a fourth-generation depiction.
