Space Font Used

The mint doesn't mention it, but they used a very decisive font on the new Florida Innovation Dollar...
created just for NASA in 1975...NASALIZATION...featuring open letters and spacey rounded edges...

    The P&D rolls are almost sold out.
    D has less than 100. P just over 200 rolls left.

    Finally! A coin that actually looks good with little bag marks and scratches, it actually looks like space debris, meteors, galaxies, and planets. Some of those look better than the stars included in the design!

    Nice catch @Rc5280 , now we'll have two coins with this unique space signature.

    Good timing Dan, the D's are gone and the P's have 150 left.

    Just to give a little recognition to the originators of the font (from a Google search):

    The "worm" NASA logotype, introduced in 1975, was designed by Richard Danne in partnership with Bruce Blackburn.
