A promotional Fantastic Four: Rise Of The Silver Surfer coin to celebrate the movie's release has been deemed illegal.
Marketing bosses collaborated with Franklin Mint to create 40,000 new coins featuring the Silver Surfer's image on one side and George Washington's face on the other, but the commemorative item contravenes tough U.S. laws on producing money.
A spokesperson for the U.S. Mint says, "The promotion is in no way approved, authorised, endorsed or sponsored by the United States Mint, nor is it in any way associated with the United States Mint."
