美国造币厂公布了即将推出的超人硬币和奖章系列的一系列候选设计，这将是庆祝漫画艺术作为一种独特的美国艺术形式的新系列中的第一个设计，以 DC 漫画人物和艺术为特色。

The new series will feature nine iconic superheroes depicted on 24-karat gold coins, .999 fine silver medals, and non-precious metal (clad) medals. Debuting in summer 2025 with Superman, Batman, and Wonder Woman, the three-year series will include six additional DC characters - three each in 2026 and 2027.

新系列将在 24 克拉金币、0.999 纯银奖牌和非贵金属（复合）奖牌上描绘九位标志性超级英雄。这部为期三年的剧集将于 2025 年夏季与超人、蝙蝠侠和神奇女侠一起首映，其中将包括另外 6 个 DC 角色——2026 年和 2027 年各增加 3 个。

Once the candidate designs are finalized, all obverses (heads side) of the coins and medals for this program will be designed and sculpted by United States Mint Chief Engraver Joseph Menna. Each of the reverses (tails side) will be designed by one of the Mint's Medallic Artists under Menna's art direction.

一旦候选设计最终确定，该计划的硬币和奖章的所有正面（正面）将由美国造币厂首席雕刻师 Joseph Menna 设计和雕刻。每个背面（尾侧）都将由造币厂的一位奖章艺术家在 Menna 的艺术指导下设计。
