This is the BS coin you're talking about Atlas

This is a historic artifact, not a 3rd party coin capitalizing on the death if innocent people.

My opinion of these coins is the same opinion I have about Nazi coins. On one hand, they are associated with a lot of bad stuff, but on the other hand, they have as much history (and one could debate that they have more) in them as any other coin. I don't see a problem with owning them as they are pieces of history. Just imagine what kind of story SSK's coin or Cascade's coin could tell. Who wouldn't want to hear those stories? I know I would be the first one in line to hear them.


SSK, Very nice coin by the way!

Does anyone know the requirements from the tpgs to get the 9-11 survivor label? Like how did they prove to them these actually were recovered from ground zero?
Just wondering. I have considered buying 1 in the past. Its amazing the changes brought to such a large and great country as ours by a few handful of men determined to bring death to thousands in the name of their god. Sometimes with the way we bankrupted ourselves fighting long bloody unwinnable wars just like they wanted I think they beat us.

I said on the first post.

You may ask, "well, how do we know this was at ground zero?" We know because after the attack, brink trucks went to get all of the bullion/coins out of the vault underneath the world trade center. All the coins were sent to PCGS, this is one of them.

Ssk is correct. The owners were given the option by pcgs to have their holdings sent to them directly and slabbed for posterity then returned to the owner. How much they paid if anything to pcgs for the service I'm not sure. But they were given back to the owners afterward
