Coins

By late 1984, the Star Wars toy line was losing steam, as the movies were finished for the foreseeable future. To try and renew interest in the toys, Kenner, decided to include a coin premium as a mail away first and packaged with newer figures. Only about half of the silver coins made it packaged before the toy line was completely cancelled and few participated in the mail away offer making quite a few of these coins pretty tough to find.

There were also gold and bronze coins produced for figures that went along with a Droids and Ewoks cartoon series, that also didn’t last very long. A 2nd series of figures were planned for these, as well as coins to go with them, but they were never released to the public.

These coins can become highly addictive. I originally started by only wanting the Category A and B coins which are fairly affordable. but soon I found myself wanting to “collect them all” 🙂

I’ve reorganized the coins using the letter category system that was introduced in the book Coining A Galaxy. However, you can still see them using the older numbering system  based on the Gus Lopez article: The Comprehensive Guide to POTF, Droids, and Ewoks Coins at the old page.
