Star Trek - Metal Cards were a series of metal trading card sets produced by Metallic Impressions in 1996-1997. Three series were produced, each available in a collectors' tin. The third set, Distinguished Officers, was intended to be the first in a series of releases. Future releases did not take place, however.
A promotional card, featuring the USS Enterprise, was produced for the Huntsville 30th Anniversary Convention. 15,000 of the cards were produced, but only 5,000 were brought to the convention, with the remainder being repackaged with mugs and steins produced by the company.
