Celebrate the Legend of “Captain Outrageous” with the Ted Turner Memorial Coin
The world of media changed forever in 1980, and today we honor the man who dared to make the news run 24/7. With the recent passing of the visionary Ted Turner, there is no better time to own a piece of history. This commemorative gold coin is more than just metal; it’s a tribute to the man who gave us CNN, transformed the Atlanta Braves into “America’s Team,” and conquered the high seas as a world-class yachtsman.
A Design as Bold as the Man Himself
This isn’t your average pocket change. We’ve designed this coin to capture the multi-faceted legacy of a true American original. Whether you knew him as the “Mouth of the South” or the greatest philanthropist of our time, this design speaks volumes.
- The Front: Features a high-relief portrait of Ted Turner in his later years, capturing his determined spirit and iconic mustache. It is framed by the titles he earned: “Captain of Media” and the memorial years 1938–2026.
- The Reverse: A masterpiece of symbolism. You’ll find the famous CNN logo orbiting a globe, representing the 24-hour news cycle he pioneered. Beneath that, a sailboat glides across the waves—a nod to his 1977 America’s Cup victory—beside a rising sun that signals a “Visionary Legacy.”
Premium Quality for a Lifetime of Remembrance
Crafted for collectors and history buffs alike, this coin is built to last as long as Ted’s impact on the world. It feels substantial in your hand and looks stunning on a desk, a shelf, or in a display case. The sharp, clean lines and polished gold finish ensure every detail of the film reels, sailboat, and global orbits stands out.
