The Royal Mint has launched two new 50 pence collector coins to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the Star Trek television series. The coins were released on Thursday, September 3, 2026.
Six decades have passed since the first episode of the franchise was broadcast to a global audience. These new coins commemorate the series' cultural impact and its pioneering role in science fiction and popular culture. One coin depicts the iconic starship Enterprise, while the other features prominent characters such as Spock and Captain Kirk.
The design of the coins aims to capture the spirit and distinct aesthetic of Star Trek. The Royal Mint has previously issued themed coins related to significant cultural phenomena, but these Star Trek coins represent a new venture in the collectibles market.
The collector coins are produced with high-quality materials and are available in limited editions, offering fans and collectors a chance to own a piece of Star Trek history. The release is timed to coincide with the franchise's anniversary.
