Each 2017 1 oz Tuvalu Star Trek Mirror, Mirror Proof Silver Coins ships to you housed inside of a Star Trek inspired case transporter that actually lights up when the lid is opened. That special packaging is presented inside of a custom designed display box with a Star Trek-themed shipper, and includes a numbered Certificate of Authenticity.
This silver coin relives a moment from the “Mirror, Mirror” episode of Star Trek: The Original Series. Debuting on television on October 6, 1967, the episode sees the members of a landing party meeting with the Halkan Council transported back to a parallel universe rather than to the Enterprise.
Captain Kirk, Dr. McCoy, Chief Engineer Scott, and Lieutenant Uhura are transported back to the Enterprise during an Ion storm, which creates a malfunction in the transporter that results in the group being sent to a different universe, and their evil counterparts sent back to the Enterprise.
On the reverse of each 2017 1 oz Tuvalu Star Trek Mirror, Mirror Proof Silver Coin you’ll find the image of Spock and Spock prime facing one another as they appeared 50 years ago in the episode of Mirror, Mirror. The background is the planet Earth bisected by a sword, with the design of Spock’s uniform insignia visible and a colorized finish.
The obverse of each coin includes the right-profile portrait of Queen Elizabeth II. Her Majesty appears on the obverse of all Australian and commonwealth coinage, and this particular design is the fourth-generation image created in 1998 by Ian Rank-Broadley.
The Perth Mint is Australia’s oldest operating mint facility. Opened in 1899, it was originally the third and final Royal Mint facility on the continent. Today it operates independent of the Royal Australian Mint, and is owned by the state government in Western Australia.
