2018 Looney Tunes - Tweety Bird 1/2oz Silver Proof Coin

TWEETY started his life as a pugnacious personality with little sympathy for his enemies but was eventually softened by Friz Freleng.

Since starring in 47 original Looney Tunes cartoons, TWEETY has appeared in The Sylvester and Tweety Mysteries on the Kids’ WB network, and in Cartoon Network’s and Boomerang’s The Looney Tunes Show with his animated co-stars, as well as New Looney Tunes.

The reverse design features TWEETY sitting within the concentric rings of the Looney Tunes logo, with his hands resting on his rounded cheeks. The design also includes the inscription TWEETY BIRD and The Perth Mint’s traditional ‘P’ mintmark. The Ian Rank-Broadley effigy of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, the 2018 year-date and the monetary denomination are depicted on the coin’s obverse.
