Silver $10 coin glows in the dark
Canada’s 'U.S.S. Voyager' silver $10: “When I dipt into the future far as human eye could see; Saw the Vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.” Alfred, Lord Tennyson and ship’s motto. (Image courtesy Royal Canadian Mint)
In March, the Royal Canadian Mint released the second coin in a brief series documenting the most famous vessels in Starfleet history. This time around, U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656 as commanded by Captain Kathryn Janeway gets the nod.
The reverse of the 34 mm, 15.87 g .9999 fine silver $10 colorized proof presents the Intrepid-class starship stranded in the Delta Quadrant, backed by a glow-in-the-dark nebula and ringed planet and, hopefully, setting course for home.
The engraved frame contains two navigational deflectors. Mintage is 10,000.
