Gene Roddenberry’s classic television series Star Trek captivated audiences when it first debuted, and continues to capture the imagination of a whole new generation of Science-Fiction fans today. The series wasn’t on the air long, but it has nonetheless obtained cult-classic status around the world. Today, the Perth Mint is celebrating the popular T.V. show with its commemorative Star Trek series of silver coins. Among the most popular coins in the series is the 2015 1 oz Star Trek Captain Kirk Proof Silver Coin which is available from JM Bullion in brand new condition.

Roddenberry’s sci-fi TV series first hit the airwaves in 1966. Set in the 23rd century, the show followed the adventures of Captain James T. Kirk and his crew aboard the U.S.S. Enterprise. The powerful, interstellar spacecraft was dispatched from Earth to explore the universe by Fleet Command. The ship traveled the galaxy on behalf of the Unified Federation of Planets. Actor William Shatner is remembered to this day for his engaging portrayal of Captain Kirk.

On the reverse side of the 2015 1 oz Star Trek Captain Kirk Proof Silver Coin is the colorized image of William Shatner in his iconic role as Captain Kirk. The background includes an overhead shot of the U.S.S. Enterprise, and the engravings “Captain James T. Kirk” and “P” mint mark.

The obverse side of the coin boasts Ian Rank-Broadley’s right profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. The Queen’s image is encircled by engravings that read “Queen Elizabeth II,” “2015,” and “1 Dollar.” These coins will be extremely hard to come by as the Perth Mint has capped mintage around 5,000 total coins.
