The fearsome “shoretroopers” whose helmets are represented by this coin are better known as Scarif Stormtroopers due to the planet of their appearance in the Rogue One film, where they feature in intense and unforgettable action sequences. The unique look and coloration of their helmets, one that has captured the attention of fans ever since their debut, is replicated by the look and design of the 2022 Silver Niue The Faces of the Empire Scarif Stormtrooper Shaped Coin.
The reverse side consists of the sculpted and accurately colorized image of the Scarif Stormtrooper helmets, as with any coin in the Faces of the Empire collection. It’s free of any other inscriptions.
The obverse shows Ian Rank-Broadley’s classic effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, as is so familiar from Commonwealth circulation coinage. It’s encircled by the inscriptions “Elizabeth II,” “Niue,” “Two Dollars” and “2022.” Below this, it’s joined by the inscription “1 oz 999 Fine Silver” and the “Lucasfilm Ltd.” trademark.
