This is *real* money. From space.
 
The US Mint has just released a new $1 coin commemorating one of America's greatest innovators: young Steve Jobs. We flew them to the edge of space on May 14, 2025. The coins hitched a ride onboard a cosmic ray research balloon, floating 111,113 feet above the Sierra Nevada mountains of central California.
 
The coin's design depicts a young Steve Jobs sitting in front of a northern California landscape of oak-covered rolling hills. Inscriptions include “STEVE JOBS” and “MAKE SOMETHING WONDERFUL.”  
 
You can have a single coin for 49.95. Each coin weighs 8 grams of 6% zinc, 4% manganese, 2% nickel, and 88% copper. You'll also receive a greeting card showing the coins in flight and telling the story of their journey to the stratosphere and back again.
