Star Trek collectors and enthusiasts will love the latest offering from The Perth Mint, the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Gold-Pressed Latinum Slip Collector’s Edition 2016 1oz Silver Gold-Plated Bar.
In Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, latinum was a rare silver coloured liquid of extremely high value prized by many civilizations in the Alpha Quadrant, particularly the Ferengi Alliance.
The bar is struck from 1oz of 99.9% pure silver and is fully gold-plated.
The reverse of the bar resembles a gold-pressed latinum slip as used in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, and the design includes the maker’s mark.
In the science fiction series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, latinum was a rare silver coloured liquid of extremely high value prized by many civilizations in the Alpha Quadrant. In order to be used as tradable currency, liquid latinum was suspended within gold or gold dust to form the end product, gold-pressed latinum. The gold served only as a carrier for the latinum and was worthless to the Ferengi.
There were several denominations of gold-pressed latinum, the smallest being the slip, followed by the strip, the bar, and the brick. One bar of gold-pressed latinum is equal to twenty strips or 2,000 slips of latinum. Each denomination features a maker’s mark for authenticity.
