CAPTAIN AMERICA: THE FIRST AVENGER (2011) - Decoy Tesseract - A decoy Tesseract from Joe Johnston's Captain America: The First Avenger. HYDRA leader Johann Schmidt (Hugo Weaving), later known as the Red Skull, found a decoy Tesseract - also known as the Cosmic Cube - in a destroyed viking ruin before locating the real tesseract in a mural of Yggdrasil.

The Tesseract possessed limitless power, making it the envy of Schmidt and Arnim Zola (Toby Jones) as well as characters such as Thanos (Josh Brolin), Loki (Tom Hiddleston), and Howard Stark (Dominic Cooper). The decoy sequence represented the first appearance of the famed device in the wildly popular Marvel Cinematic Universe, setting the stage for its recurrence throughout Phases 1 through 3.

This opaque cube was originally sold in Marvel's official Captain America: The First Avenger auction held in April 2014, though its Marvel Certificate of Authenticity is no longer present. It is cast from resin and painted with sparkling and swirling patterns to appear otherworldly. It exhibits small white paint splatter and paint flaking throughout its faces and corners, exposing the resin. Dimensions: 3.75" x 3.75" x 3.75" (9.75 cm x 9.75 cm x 9.75 cm)

Estimate: $10,000 - 20,000
