As one of the most enduring science fiction franchises across the globe, Star Trek continues to be just as popular today as it was 50 years ago when the first show aired. The 2015 Tuvalu Star Trek U.S.S. Enterprise NX-01 1 oz silver coin was designed and minted to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the franchise. Featuring the fifth television series, Star Trek: Enterprise, this silver coin has a detailed design that is sure to win over the hearts of Trekkies from all walks of life. The coin has a face value of $1 and is considered to be legal tender on the Polynesian island of Tuvalu. The coin contains 1 oz of .999 pure silver and is highly prized amongst Star Trek devotees.
Coin Highlights:
Still evolving and growing today, with new shows being announced every few years, the Star Trek franchise went boldly into television history in 1966 with the original series featuring the Enterprise paving the way through the final frontier. In the years since, there have been several spin-off series, more than a dozen feature films, an animated series, and countless books and comic books.
When Star Trek: Enterprise launched onto televisions screens in 2001, it was touted as a prequel to the original Star Trek series. While it had just a short 4 season run, the show endeavored to connect some of the plot lines that ran through the franchise.
Obverse
The obverse of the coin features the right-profile portrait that was created by sculptor Ian Rank-Broadley in 1998. The image of Her Majesty is surrounded by the engraved f Elizabeth II, Tuvalu, and also the face value and year of issue of the coin.
Reverse
The reverse of the coin features a detailed image of the USS Enterprise NX-01, which was the starship seen during the run of the Enterprise series. The ship dazzles with detail and a silver finish, while the background of mountains and a pink sky add a vibrant pop of color to this coin.
