  1. I have been looking at ham radios and have know idea were to start. I have looked at hamcity.com and some other website. I have no idea what the price range is, do i need a licence and what equipment do i need. Any help is greatly appreciated.

    These days there are at least two types of coins being produced. Among those are Geocoins and 'feel good' coins. This 9/11 coin falls squarely into the latter category, because it has absolutely nothing to do with caching whatsoever.

     

    What is the point of the coin in the first place? Is it to help raise funds that will be donated to a post-9/11 effort, or is it going to help buy a PS3 or make Christmas a little better for you? I realize that question might seem a little brash, but this far past the events of that tragic day, I have to really question the motivation behind it.

    for on the ps3 stinks and i would get a 360 i love geocaching and geocoins and thought it would be neat to make one. its for fun not for a ps3

  3. This is the latest proof of the coindd412ea5-bc30-41ca-9c35-211169889225.jpg

    We will be adding the coords of the twin towers along the bottom and it will be trackable the company just forgot to add the place where the number will be i will post the picture again when we get the latest proof

  4. Visited the WTC last month; it looks like - well, like a construction site. The area has little to offer visitors but chain link fencing screening off the site, a storefront charging admission to help raise funds for one of the memorial 'agendas', and the incredible 56' wide bas-relief bronze memorial at FDNY's Station Ten... what an awesome testimony to the heroism of the first responder emergency personnel - especially the firefighters. Station Ten houses Engine 10 and Ladder 10, and is located on the south side of the 'block' across the street from the WTC. As you can imagine, their station's losses were substantial in terms of personnel. If you're visiting New York City, look up that firefighters' memorial on the west wall of Station Ten - it will help you understand the final sacrifice made by 343 firefighters as their department carried out the largest rescue operation the world has ever seen...

     

    The monument's at N40 42.590 W 74 00.780 - on the west side of the station, corner of Liberty & Greenwich St. Best as I can tell from my track log and offsetting to the north, the center of the square block the WTC sat upon is N40 42.690 W 74 00.750

    Fifty-six feet wide - three hundred and forty-three names - Courage and self-sacrifice defined...

  7. My grandmother and I are thinking about producing this coin. We will be selling it depending on how much interest it generates. Cost would be 9.99 and shipping $1.50 in Mainland U.S.A. Thank you for your comments and suggestionsd8b17bef-cd71-46ff-8c99-bc01ae4da2bf.jpg
