You right Northerncoins, also the amount of sets vs other toys should be considered. Quote: I wonder who will be the first to bring out a Memorial Spock/Nimoy coin. This could be good for the fans, but not for the Mint (if it is coins), since totally not ethical to have the profit on the "memory of dead person" even if it is memorabilia. Not so short after the death.....1 year after will be OK.

Quote: Not so short after the death.....1 year after will be OK. Maybe so , but how long after JFK was dead did they pump out massive amounts of "Memorial Coin/tokens/medallions" ?

Could Spock be on one of the upcoming Perth Mint Star Trek coins?

thanks commems. Mine is still a new order so maybe they are working through the shipments. I did find this pic of an actual coin on ebay which is encouraging.

Quote: received my 3 coins today cant go wrong for the price. I think, the coin is worth it's price, from the collector's point of view. But "can't go wrong for this price" I believe it should be priced as face value or PM content value. Hope I wrong, but low price will not make it more popular. The same, like you will not buy souvenir piece of plastic with Canada flag on it, non coin collector will not buy silver coin with Canada flag on it.
