The mintage is limited to only 5000 coins worldwide meaning that this is sure to become a prized coin for both numismatic collectors and Star Trek fans.

The series broke new ground at the time, and explored many different social issues at a time when young people were beginning to questions many of the values held by older generations.
The obverse of the coin features the Ian Rank Broadley effigy of Queen Elizabeth II and the words "Queen Elizabeth II 1 Dollar Tuvalu 2015" and the artist's initials.
The reverse of the coin features actor Leonard Nimoy, in the role of Spock.
Spock is giving the Vulcan salute, which was often accompanied by the blessing "Live long and prosper".
Spock has the IDIC Vulcan symbol around his neck, and the symbol is engraved into the coin behind Spock's hand.
This coin, like the original run of the series, is strictly limited, get yours today before they are all gone!
ABOUT THE PERTH MINT
The Perth Mint opened in 1899 as the British Royal Mint's 3rd branch in Australia. The historical Hay Street location handled gold refining until moving to a modern facility in April 1990. Ownership of the mint was transferred to the Government of Western Australia in July of 1970. Under an agreement with the Commonwealth Treasury, they were empowered to mint and market gold, silver, and platinum as Australian legal tender to investors and collectors worldwide. Today, they are amongst the elite world mints whose pure gold, silver, and platinum items are trusted without question. Items such as the Australian Nugget, Silver Coin Series (Kangaroo, Kookaburra, Koala, and Platypus to name a few), as well as the Australian Lunar Gold and Silver Coin Series are extensively sought after by bullion investors worldwide.
