The Japan Mint announced that they will be issuing commemorative coin sets for the 25th anniversary of the first day ‘Neon Genesis Evangelion’ aired on television.

Proof coin sets, featuring specially treated coins with a mirror-like finish and a special leather case, will retail for 13,700 yen (₱6,297.24) including tax and postage.

Limited to 20,000 sets, they will contain the six denominations of Japanese coins in circulation as well as a silver medal featuring a color print of Unit 01, the Evangelion piloted by the series’ protagonist Shinji Ikari.

In addition, 50,000 regular coin sets, comprising the six coins in circulation plus a tombac medal of Shinji Ikari and Rei Ayanami, the pilot of Evangelion Unit 00, will retail for 2,500 yen including tax and postage.

Customers will be chosen by lottery if pre-orders exceed the number of sets available and a limit on how many sets can be purchased per person may also be imposed. Deliveries will commence in late October, the Mint said on its website.
