Star Trek’s 50th anniversary may have came and went in 2016, but individual series within the greater Star Trek universe continue the celebration of their releases. This year marks the 30th anniversary of Star Trek: The Next Generation, and this opens with a vibrant celebration of the USS Enterprise’s encounter with the Borg cube.
The colorized field on the reverse side of the 2017 1 oz Proof Canadian Silver Star Trek The Borg Coin includes an image of the Borg cube. Its ominous green tractor beam is reaching out to capture the USS Enterprise in its clutches, bringing the intensity of the series to life on these brilliant silver coins.
Each of the individual Silver Star Trek The Borg Coins in this product listing arrives inside of a Star Trek-themed graphic beauty box that recreates the visuals of the Borg cube, and the coins include a numbered Certificate of Authenticity with purchase.
The obverse of all 2017 1 oz Proof Canadian Silver Star Trek The Borg Coins includes the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty appears on all Canadian coinage, and this particular design comes from Susanna Blunt and was created in 2003.
On the reverse of the coins you’ll notice the colorized image field mentioned above. It features the green luminescence of the Borg’s tractor beam as it attempts to trap and hold the USS Enterprise. Engravings include the series name, nation of issue, and year of issue for the coins.
