Boeing has produced a medallion commemorating its CST-100 Starliner Orbital Flight Test. A number of these medallions are flying aboard the uncrewed mission to the International Space Station.
With the CST-100 Starliner, we are revolutionizing the way people travel to and from space just as we did with air travel in our first 100 years of flight. This commemorative coin, containing metal from a Starliner crew module, serves as a token for our appreciation for your determination to defy gravity and to keep propelling human space exploration forward.

Nice medallion. Are they going to offer the coin on the retail level? Or an employee medallion?

Given the inscription on the card (reprinted above), I believe these medallions are only intended for presentation.

Four of these sold on eBay in the last 2-3 weeks. All four quickly sold with Buy it Now. Don't know how or where the seller got them, but hopefully there are more out there.

The coin is back on eBay now at $33 each, for anyone who missed it the other week.
