The works of internationally celebrated Pop Culture artist Burton Morris adorn the walls of many a celebrity – Barrack Obama, Oprah Winfrey, and Brad Pitt, to name just a few. Hailed by some as the modern-day Andy Warhol, Morris’ works animate everyday objects to create symbolic statements about popular culture, especially that of the United States. This coin follows the series’ first issue – ‘POP!’ – and features one of filmmaking’s most famous icons – King Kong! The giant gorilla made its big screen debut in 1933 and has since inspired many cartoons, video games and art. Burton’s interpretation entitled ‘Monkey Business’ depicts a more light-hearted version. This 1oz pure silver legal tender coin is engraved and accented with vibrant color to capture Morris’ iconic style. Limited mintage of 2,500 coins.
