6 SHUTTLES ON THE COIN WITH A REAL SPACE FLOWN MATERIAL:

The coin includes the flown mix is flown hardware (like thermal insulation, flown metal pins from the space shuttle payload bay and flown bolts, flown nuts and flown washers) .

Everything was ground into a powder like mixture with some larger pieces.

ENTERPRISE: Designated OV-101, Enterprise was the prototype shuttle and rolled out for the first time on 17 September 1976. Built without engines or a working heat shield for use as a test-bed, she was originally meant to be retrofitted for spaceflight, but design changes and other cheaper options meant it wasn’t to be. She was restored and placed on display at the Smithsonian in Virginia until 2012 when she was moved to the Intrepid Sea, Air & Space Museum in New York.

COLUMBIA: The second to be built but the first space-rated orbiter, Columbia, designated OV-102, launched for the first time on mission STS-1 on April 12, 1981. In the next 22 years, she completed 27 missions but disintegrated during re-entry on mission STS-107 on 01 February 2003, killing all seven members of the crew.

CHALLENGER: The second space-rated orbiter, Challenger (OV-099) had its maiden flight on 04 April 1983. She made nine flights successfully before breaking up 73 seconds after launch on the tenth, STS-51L on 28 January 1986. The crew of seven was killed and the shuttle fleet grounded for two and a half years as a result.

DISCOVERY: After her first flight on 30 August 1984, OV-103 went on to complete 39 missions in the next 27 years. She was the first shuttle to retire, having undertaken more spaceflights than any other vehicle, including lifting the Hubble telescope and International Space Station parts into orbit. Her last mission was STS-133 on 24 February 2011. Discovery now lives in the Smithsonian Institution’s National Air and Space Museum.

ATLANTIS: Given the designation OV-104, Atlantis first flew on mission STS-51-J between the 3rd and 7th of October, 1985. She undertook the final ever shuttle mission (STS-135), her 33rd, on 08 July 2011. Over a successful career, Atlantis had orbited the Earth 4,848 times, covering a staggering 126 million miles. She is displayed at the Kennedy Space Center Visitor Complex.

ENDEAVOUR: The fifth and final space-worthy shuttle to be built (OV-105), Endeavour was constructed partly from spares to replace the tragically lost Challenger. She undertook 25 missions between May 1992 (STS-49) and May 2011 (STS-134). She was named after the British ship Endeavour (hence the British spelling), the vessel which took Captain Cook on his first voyage of exploration. There was even a piece of wood from Cooks ship in the cockpit. She currently resides at the California Science Center awaiting a new display.
