The Perth Mint has just unveiled an imaginative celebration of one of pop culture’s most iconic superhero teams: the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Their brand-new 2025 Domed Shell 1.5 oz Silver Coin is not just another release, it’s a ground-breaking blend of artistic innovation, premium craftsmanship, and nostalgic appeal.

Why This Coin Stands Out
Innovative Shape & Design
Whether you're a fan of Leonardo or just appreciate great minting, seeing the Turtles’ iconic shell sculpted into a 3D domed form is a jaw-dropper—offering tactile depth and visual strength. The antique colouring enhances the gritty vibe of an urban hero’s armour
Pop-Culture Meets Numismatic Art
This isn’t a flat collectible; it’s a fusion of pop‑culture homage and minting excellence. The shell symbolizes unity and protection—an apt metaphor for the TMNT ethos
Investment & Nostalgia Combo
With only 1,500 struck, the coin’s scarcity could drive demand in secondary markets. Add in nostalgia and Perth Mint reliability, and this becomes a collector magnet
Presentation & Packaging
Each coin comes with:
- A numbered Certificate of Authenticity
- A custom latex case that protects the shell shape
- A sleek black gift box sporting the TMNT logo and stylized shell art
Release Info & Pricing
- Launch Date: Officially released July 8, 2025
- RRP: $259
Buy Quickly: With just 1,500 minted and high interest from both coin and TMNT collector communities, this one will disappear fast.
Protect the Dome: The unusual shape demands special storage – a padded display stand or soft-fit holder is ideal.
Retain Everything: Box, case, certificate—all are essential to maintain full collector value.
Track the Series: This unique domed coin could spark a wider TMNT series from Perth Mint—worth watching!
For fans of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and premium coin collectors alike, the 2025 Domed Shell Silver Coin is a game-changer. It casts beloved characters in a new, tactile medium, while staying true to the epic craftsmanship Perth Mint is known for. With a rare limited mintage, striking design, and official licensing, this coin hits all the right notes.
