U.S. patriotism soared and the world stood tall against terrorism.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>This world’s first, government-authorized, legal-tender coin also came together to honor lives lost, and as the severse states, “Lest We Forget”. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Other commemorative medals followed, but no other currency has captured the moment, or American and Ally strength and resolve quite like this. The wreath surrounding the image of the New York skyline is a mourning wreath. The wreath symbolizes the sadness and mouning for the tragedy that day. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Together Buckingham Palace and the New York Mint are pleased to introduce a coin that towers above all others.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://javascript&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:swapTabs('tab_specifications')" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://javascript&lt;b&gt;&lt;/b&gt;:swapTabs('tab_specifications')" rel="nofollow"><span style="color: #0000ff">Specifications</span></a> </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><b>Country:</b></p><p>British Virgin Islands<b>Date:</b></p><p>2002<b>Metal:</b></p><p>Copper-Nickel<b>Denomination:</b></p><p>1 Dollar<b>Weight:</b></p><p>28.28 g<b>Diameter:</b></p><p>38.6 mm<b>Condition:</b></p><p>Brilliant Uncirculated<b>Obverse:</b></p><p>Queen Elizabeth II <b>Reverse:</b></p><p>New York skyline with the World Trade Center Towers, &quot;Lest We Forget.&quot; </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>Well Ruben, I played around with the GIMP file and the result are as follows, But I did do some back ground work in my of file.</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100039900X900.gif" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100039900X900.gif" rel="nofollow">http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100039900X900.gif</a></p><p><img src="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100039900X900.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/P1100007800X800.gif" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/P1100007800X800.gif" rel="nofollow">http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/P1100007800X800.gif</a></p><p><img src="http://[U][COLOR=#22229c][IMG]http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/P1100007800X800.gif" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" />[/COLOR][/U]</p><p>&nbsp;</p><p><a href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100007800X800.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100007800X800.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100007800X800.jpg</a></p><p><img src="http://i230.photobucket.com/albums/ee18/cherylkubicko/aP1100007800X800.jpg" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>The designer Intials is PM[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
