Darth Vader invokes a fearsome image whenever he appears on-screen or in literature. Although he grew to be one of the most widely recognized villains in all of cinema and pop culture, he began his life as a slave named Anakin Skywalker. Born on planet Tatooine, this young, promising Jedi was mentored by Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. Subsequently, evil Emperor Palpatine took advantage of young-adult Anakin’s desire for power and control over death and turned him to the Dark Side. Because he contained more Midi-Chlorians (microscopic life forms) in his blood than any other human, Anakin’s abilities were unmatched by those who tried to challenge him. After his transformation into a Sith Lord, Anakin assumed the name Darth Vader. He then became the main adversary of Luke Skywalker and Leia Organa, his biological children hidden from him at birth. After a tumultuous journey and epic battle between Luke and Emperor Palpatine, Darth Vader sacrificed himself to save his son, thereby completing his arc of redemption.

The obverse shows the effigy of Queen Elizabeth II, surrounded by inscriptions.

The reverse of the coin features a colorized proof rendering of Darth Vader’s black helmet, brought to life in stunning high relief.
