I think the coin in IGE's first post is identical to this one except for the denomination. It's from my Dad's collection and for a guy with 8 kids and one income he must have liked it alot to shell out what he paid for it. I'm glad to have it.

Quote: Kinda cool, but how did NGC get it? Quote: "Numismatic Guaranty Company (NGC) did not directly strip or obtain the fabric from the Space Shuttle Discovery themselves; rather, third-party memorabilia dealers and distributors (such as the Mini Museum) acquired decommissioned, mission-flown payload bay liner material—backed by official NASA disposition paperwork—and partnered with NGC or its affiliate Collectibles Authentication Guaranty (CAG) to authenticate, encapsulate, and grade the fabric alongside commemorative coins."

A very nice example with high sentimental value!
