- "Together, as a community, we were able to be a part of something wonderful, that helped us looked to the stars despite the hardships."
The first commemorative coin to be introduced, Per Aspera Ad Astra recognizes player dedication to our fleet through the hardships of the COVID-19 pandemic. The Captains Council agreed the phrase "per aspera ad astra", translating to, "through difficulties to the stars," was a fitting theme for the endurance of our member base worldwide.
The coin displays the new logo introduced in 2021 to signify the launch of our new brand and recognize that this was an experience that affected our entire community. On the left of the coin, the image of a spiral – representing rebirth, and resilience, while also alluding to the mRNA sequence (which looks similar to a DNA spiral) of the vaccines which are helping to bring us out of this tragedy. On the right-hand side, you'll find the image of a lily, representing the return to innocence after death and the recognition of grief that touched many of us during this difficult time.
