<p>[QUOTE="mrbrklyn, post: 215350, member: 4381"]During the holiday I regret taking a trip to the Statue of Liberty with the kids. I regret the trip because the security precautions to see the statue and the restrictions on not being able to climb the statue are so disheaterning that the whole expereince is very negative. I could remember the days of climbing to the crown and being free to expereince the statue. The bomb sniffing macines make Liberty Island the only place in NY Harbor where the nuclear weapon which will be destroy us will not be set off from, that is for sure.</p><p><br /></p><p>Regardless - here are some Statue of Liberty Coins</p><p><br /></p><p>This one is a 3 dollar "coin" made from the machine on the spot.</p><p><br /></p><p>Its actually quite nice <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie2" alt=";)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" /> I wonder what the copper value is.</p><p><br /></p><p><a href="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_obverse.png" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_obverse.png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_obverse_sm.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><a href="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_reverse.png" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_reverse.png" rel="nofollow"><img src="http://www.mrbrklyn.com/images/statue_of_liberty_and_coins/statue_of_liberty_3_dollar_coin_reverse_sm.png" class="bbCodeImage wysiwygImage" alt="" unselectable="on" /></a></p><p><br /></p><p>Not this is the 20 dollar Chinese Medal from the shop.
