Merian C Cooper’s Classic Movie King Kong created in 1932, saw the introduction of the colossus, King Kong.
The story of Kong, his home on Skull Island, and the dramatic battle on the top of the Empire State Building has captured the public’s imagination for nearly a century. King Kong has spawned numerous remakes, and variants through the cinema of the 1900’s and 2000’s, but it was artist and author, Joe DeVito that the estate of Merian C Cooper turned to, to develop the official sequel and world building histories around the original characters. Joe’s original stories- Skull Island and the History of Skull Island, revealed details of the history of the Kong’s, events leading to the capture of King Kong, as a result of Carl Denham’s trip to the island, and the aftermath of the battle on the Empire State Building.
A talented artist, Joe has contributed to comic book retelling of his stories by a number of publishers, offering distinctive cover art for the series. It is from this rich cover art that we have selected the 2024 image. Featuring King Kong atop the Empire State Building, with Ann Darrow clasped in his giant hand, this art featured on the cover of Dynamite Entertainment’s King Kong: The Great War from 2023.
A Classic King Kong, by the official partner to Merian C Cooper’s estate captured in investment grade 999 silver, as a limited-edition collectible.
King Kong of Skull Island 2024 coins feature individual numbering on the reverse face, lower right of each coin, and come attractively packaged in a quality wooden case and card outer, with matching numbered certificate of authenticity. The coin images below showcase Joe DeVito’s comic cover art, featuring King Kong atop the Empire State Building, clutching a helpless Ann Darrow. The cityscape background is engraved and frosted, with Kong prominent in color.
This is one of two coins that are the only official releases for the property in 2024 and represent the commencement of an annual programme to celebrate the legacy of King Kong of Skull Island, and the comic book artistry of Joe DeVito.
