The quarter that has been put into limited circulation Variety reported with a total of 40,000 quarters released into the currency stream.
The legal tender coin is a California state commemorative quarter minted by the U.S. Mint and color-enhanced by Franklin.
One side of the limited-edition collector's quarter features an image of the Silver Surfer character, while the name of the movie's Web site appears in tiny lettering.
Those finding the quarter can go to the Web site and take part in the Search 4 Silver campaign, including registering to win a trip for four to the world premiere of Silver Surfer in London.
