Design: Detailed engraving and contrasting finishing instill this unusually shaped coin with an inspiring, nostalgic feel. Its arrowhead shape mimics that of the iconic Delta Shield Insignia, which was worn by the crew of the U. Enterprise and became the identifying emblem of Starfleet. The Starfleet insignia is the Enterprise’s patch, which was later adopted by Starfleet and worn by all members in recognition of the crew’s five-year mission. A different Starfleet insignia was featured in the episodes Charlie X and The Omega Glory. S Enterprise falls under the authority of Starfleet, which is itself under the authority of the United Federation of Planets. Early episodes referenced United Earth Space Probe Agency (UESPA) (Charlie X, Tomorrow Is Yesterday) before Starfleet was established as the authority in command of the Enterprise (Court Martial). Other terms included Star Service (The Conscience of the King), Spacefleet Command (The Squire of Gothos) and even Space Central (Miri). Starfleet’s responsibilities include exploration, research, defence in space and diplomacy. During first contacts, Starfleet officers have the authority to act as official representatives of the Federation.
