Quote: Hmmm weird, these two came up first for me when I did a completed listing search. Very weird. Repeated the search. The listings on your screenshot came, but not as the first - among many other in range of CAD 130- 150. Your first one - by Talisman.....the question, why to buy it for CAD 236, if it still available for CAD 134?Might be the Canadian guy with 134 will not ship to US, so the buyer bought from Talisman.....

It depends on what search terms you use. A tip when it comes to searching on ebay or other sites: less is better than more. You should type the basics and you will get more hits. I did two searches: 1. Typed "Star Trek Enterprise coin" and I came up with many more listings, including the one for $134.99. 2. Typed "Tuvalu Star Trek Enterprise Coin" and it came up with fewer listings but came with the $236 and $232 coins. But not the $134 coin.

How you search is important, what I found is when I've done searches and I think I've seen everything on E-Bay with my search. I friend who has done the same search will find coin's that my search never found, so I've missed coin's don't know why this happens. It has caused me to miss out on certain items

MoneyPenney correct. Less you limit the search by giving specific words - more results will appear. Sometimes I do the search on ebay.com too, although it suppose to give the same as ebay.ca - but not always. And the Spock coins....yeah, soon we will search for them on ebay only, and will search for the price that will be more or less acceptable.

Thanks to the other forum members, that kept track of "Spock" coin offers. The coin available in the Perth Bullion (was available at 10:51 Toronto time), and for inflated price on ebay. Better not to hesitate and load it up now...

Star Trek Spock (Mr. Nimoy) coin appears in stock at GovMint. The Price is USD $99.
Looks like it popular, but less, than predicted.

Ya I think it will be one of those slow moving coins that increase in value over time, don't count it out yet... thats my prediction anyways...  I think the star ships will do a similar slow progression upwards and maybe James T Kirk, but the others I am not too sure about. Well Pickard might do ok too.

Quote: I hope you are right.. I have four of these :) If you have a budget, better wait. Hopefully, Perth Mint will not overuse (like RCM done to Superman) the theme. And in the future, the coin with the actor/character which will never return, should be valuable (again, in hope)

Technically there isn't a connection with Star Trek and the town of Vulcan Alberta. They just created it after the fact. Leonard nimoy did visit the town a few years ago. But it's beneath William shatner to visit. They created a bronze bust of Leonard nimoy with his actual bronzed hand print. He was a very nice man.
