Description
Hawkins, Indiana. Population 30,987. On 6 November 1983, a child went missing and the town changed forever. What happened beneath its quiet streets — in a government laboratory building a gateway to somewhere else — became the story that Stranger Things has told across five seasons and a decade of television. The Perth Mint's Hawkins coin does not depict characters. It depicts the place.
The reverse shows the town itself — ordinary, suburban, 1980s — with the Mind Flayer looming behind it in the background. A grayscale section of the design represents the Upside Down, the parallel dimension bleeding through the surface of the real world. The contrast between the coloured Hawkins streets and the grey of what lies beneath is the design's central tension. The inscription simply reads "HAWKINS." The Perth Mint 'P' mintmark and the Stranger Things logo complete the reverse.
This is a gold-plated collector coin — this is not a gold or silver bullion coin — presented in a collector card with themed packaging. At a mintage of 5,000 pieces it is more accessible than the silver releases in the same series. For Stranger Things collectors building the full Perth Mint series, this is the atmospheric companion to the character-focused coins: the town before the characters, the setting before the story.
Highlights:
- Minted by Perth Mint and officially licensed Netflix collectible
- Gold-plated collector coin
- Mintage: 5,000 pieces worldwide
- Hawkins and Mind Flayer design with grayscale Upside Down effect
Obverse: Jody Clark's effigy of H.M. King Charles III with denomination and 2026 year-date.
Reverse: The town of Hawkins — suburban streets, quiet surface — with the Mind Flayer looming in the background; a grayscale section depicts the Upside Down bleeding through reality; "HAWKINS" inscription, Stranger Things logo, Perth Mint 'P' mintmark.
