{{/presale}}The signature creative and performance style of legendary puppeteer Jim Henson was identified with the word “muppets” from early in his career and would go on to become the core of multiple successful shows, including The Muppet Show, whose iconic casts of puppets would claim a major place in popular culture and especially in children’s entertainment. The earliest runaway success was the groundbreaking children’s show Sesame Street,whose muppet cast members quickly became the core of the brand, driven by famous characters like Oscar the Grouch, Grover, Bert and Ernie, and the iconic Cookie Monster. The outlandish blue-furred aficionado of cookies is celebrated by the 2021 Proof Samoa Sesame Street 1 oz Silver Cookie Monster Coin, now available from Provident Metals.

The Cookie Monster dominates the coin’s reverse side, appearing in mid-munch in a full-color portrait with his hands full of chocolate chip cookies. He’s accompanied by the inscription “COOKIE MONSTER” above and “1oz Pure .999 Ag” below, along with the trademark and 2020 copyright for “Sesame Workshop.”
History
The Independent State of Samoa has issued several high-quality collectibles in tribute to the Muppets of Sesame Street, iconic puppet characters who have been a part of childhood for generations of viewers. One of the most widely recognized of these characters, the Cookie Monster made his debut in 1971 with the song “C Is For Cookie,” still one of the best-known songs to originate on the show and of the few Sesame Streetsketches to be directed by Jim Henson himself. The character evolved over the years, eventually acquiring a family, the given name Sid, and even a slightly more nuanced approach to his favorite food in order to better promote healthy eating for children, but has always retained his signature devotion to the cookie.
