You are probably right CC they did tell me there names but I forgot you was you,
that means the one on the right is the signature on the left side of the certificate with Bondar.

Trully commemorative.
Well done with the signature!
The coin is convex, but I would try to display it in the "floating" frame....

Thanks for sharing your experience and pics!!
That's a great memory right there.
Very cool to have your coin signed by a Canadian icon on the day the coin was released.

So at least one of the coins is now worth about $160 :) Congrats, that's a neat story.

Thanks for all the nice comments, I did get a little choked up when getting it signed and yes it's now worth the $160 and more.

It was in a meeting room that has the seats going uphill, a full class of aviation students, people she worked with here and other invited guests, so I guess 100 people.

I'm sure she was tickled for the ceremony and you asking for the signature was probably the cherry on top! :) She deserves it, she has inspired many and accomplished much!
Rest in Peace

I saw this coin today... it really was beautiful, and could have been the first NCLT coin I have bought in a long time... then I saw the price. There is no way this thing was worth $150 in my opinion. I will wait a few years, and then pick one up.

I had to buy it for that price to get it autographed.

Agree with SSP on the price aspect but I think the fact that you got it signed makes it more valuable. I probably would have done the same in your shoes even though I rarely get mint items at retail prices.
