I AM STARTING THIS AUCTION AT A VERY LOW OPEN WITH NO RESERVE! I HAVE ONLY ONE OT THESE TO SELL SO BID NOW! THERE ARE NO MORE TO BE BOUGHT, THE WHOLESALE MARKET IS SOLD OUT! THE PEOPLE HOLDING INVENTORY HAVE THE ONLY INVENTORY LEFT! This is a VERY RARE chance you have to be able to own one of these complete collections of history, some of the nicest artifacts of history and disaster to ever be saved and certified in any way. I have no doubt that these coins, being so few and so important, will rise in value by multiples of today's pricing. I feel that as the other 95% of the world becomes aware of these treasures actually existing, the supply and demand will be elevated to reflect the price based on the supply, which is so very few, and the demand, the people, the Americans, and the collectors will create a demand that cannot be filled. I believe, very soon, the value of these will multiply by tens of times. They say that since the state quarters there are now two-hundred million collectors, based on that there are not enough to allow ONE WTC coin for every TEN THOUSAND COLLECTORS! Think about that. These coins I find so very special, and symbolic, for the American Silver Eagles have Lady Liberty on the obverse dressed in the American Flag, on a full ounce of .999 fine, pure, silver, even having a face value of $1.00 ea., when of course this coin, this symbol of peace, has a cost of ten times that amount, in silver value alone. The way I see that is, I believe that for the first time in many people's, lives they now realize that our freedom is not free, it comes with a cost to each, a cost higher than what it may have appeared, by it's 'face' value. To think we almost went one whole generation without war, war is different now, but it is still war and war is death. The iron mountain depository safe burned for over two months before the coins were found, and for months after it burned, but these coins, these symbols of our strength, being soft of the purest of metals, these coins were recovered in the cleanest of condition, some even MS69. The attacks on 9/11/2001 changed our course of history, our children's grandchildren will learn of this as part of their required reading in U.S. History. The attacks have began a revolution of growth, awareness, and change that will be remembered not only as the NYC WTC attacks, the Pentagon, the one downed, but will be remembered by historians as sparking a whole series of events from the anthrax to Iraq. History is still writing the attacks of September 11, 2001. Less than one certified coin for every ten thousand coin collectors, the majority of Americans are not even aware these pieces of history exist! In 2000 or 2001 the US Mint made an American Silver Eagle proof condition coin to memorialize the 15th anniversary of the American Silver Eagle, it was 2000 or 2001 American Silver Eagle in proof condition, the population/the mintage (the # made) was around 25,000 pieces I believe. Those 25,000 anniversary Eagles are more than every single WTC coin certified WTC recovered, more than all the WTC coins combine, not just the 2001, all the American silver, gold and platinum, all denominations, all years, all grades, all other recovered coins of other countries, all the other countries and all their sizes,dates, denominations and precious metals, all the WTC American and all the WTC foreign all added together does not equal the population, or the number of coins made, of this US Mint anniversary Silver Eagle. Now what is the number of 1989 Silver Eagles alone VS the number of anniversary Eagles, there were also the year 2000 WTC recovered American Silver Eagles to match whatever date the anniversary coin was minted. Now honestly would you rather have the anniversary Silver Eagle for $3,000.00 to $5,000.00, or would you rather have the WTC 2001 Silver Eagle that has a population of maybe 1/10th or less the number that exist of the anniversary Silver, which is more important, which is most rare? Now what value is yet to be realized. Every financial institution advises people to put their money in a position to make them more money, and all these institutions strongly recommend 10% to 20% to be invested in numismatic gold & silver, I can't think of any gold or silver coin to have more potential than the WTC coins. Not one of my friends or family knew these few WTC coins were graded/certified and for sale to the public.HURRY AND TAKE ADVANTAGE OF YOUR CHANCE TO OWN ONE OF THESE VERY RARE COMPLETE COLLECTIONS OF HISTORY BEFORE THEY ARE REALIZED AND PRICED BEYOND THE REACH OF MOST, YOUR CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN WILL THANK YOU FOR IT!***NOTE*** ATTENTION:ALL THESE AMERICAN WTC GEM, SILVER RECOVERED COINS ARE ENCASED, GRADED AND CERTIFIED BY PCGS AS TO BE IN GEM GRADE AND AS BEING RECOVERED FROM WTC GROUND ZERO; UNLIKE OTHER PCGS UNC GEM COINS, ALL THE AMERICAN GOLD AND SILVER GEM COINS INCLUDE PCGS'S PARENT COMPANIES(=PCGS'S OWNER) NAME ON THE BACK OF THE PCGS SLAB, "COLLECTORS UNIVERSE" IS PCGS'S PARENT COMPANY.
