Description

Thirty years after the box office success of Back to the Future, The Perth Mint is excited to present the Back to the Future – Hoverboard 2015 2oz Silver Coin.

Back to the Future is an American science fiction comedy trilogy (1985, 1989 and 1990), starring Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, a high school student who accidentally travels 30 years into the past to 1955, jeopardising his own future existence.

The hoverboard – a skateboard without wheels that hovers over the ground – makes its debut in the second film of the trilogy. Marty McFly travels to his future in 2015 and hovers through the air when chased by teen rogue Griff Tannen and his gang.

Each coin is struck from 2oz of 99.9% pure silver.

The reverse of the coin features an image of Marty McFly’s hoverboard as it appeared in Back to the Future II. The inscription HOVERBOARD also appears in the design.

Issued as legal tender under the authority of the Government of Tuvalu, the Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the monetary denomination, and the 2015 year-date are shown on the coin’s obverse.

No more than 2,015 of the Back to the Future – Hoverboard 2015 2oz Silver Coin will be released by The Perth Mint.

Designed to look like Marty McFly’s hoverboard from Back to the Future II, each coin is presented in a plastic capsule. The coin appears to be suspended and hovering within the case. This exciting product is packaged within an illustrated shipper and is accompanied by a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.

About this Series

Written by Bob Gale and Robert Zemeckis, Back to the Future became the most successful film of 1985, receiving widespread critical acclaim. Its success led to the release of two sequels in 1989 and 1990, and a variety of other spinoff projects, including an animated series, a theme park ride, video games, and a musical.

The first film follows Marty McFly as he goes back in time to 1955 where he meets his parents who were in high school, but had not yet fallen in love. In the present day, 1985, Marty’s family members are largely unhappy and unsatisfied with how their lives have turned out.

When Marty travels back to 1955, he unintentionally interrupts his parents first meeting, altering the course of the future. Marty must make sure his parents fall in love all over again in order to ensure his own existence in, and to get back to, the future.

In the sequel, Back To The Future II, Marty and Doc Brown have to travel 30 years into future to stop Marty’s future son from making a horrible mistake that would ruin the future family. They arrive on a Skyway on 21 October 2015.

During this adventure, Marty gets chased by a gang and in an exciting pursuit uses a hoverboard to make his escape.
