Details

This Star Trek drafts set was produced by Franklin Mint in honor of Star Trek's 25th anniversary in 1991, however the set was not released until 1993 and is a lot rarer than the FM Chess set with the same theme. This set consists of pewter checkers, coated with a layer of 24 carat gold and sterling silver. The gold pieces have a relief depicting the USS Enterprise on one side and the Enterprise Command Insignia on the other. The silver game pieces have a relief image of the Klingon D7 battlecruiser on one side and the Klingon "Trefoil" insignia on the other. The set was sold as a special collector's item with the pieces packed in a velvet lined case and can be played on the Star Trek Jubilee Chess Set game board or on the round glass checkerboard that comes with the set. The checkerboard is modeled in the similar style to the Franklin Mint's Star Trek chess set.
