There are a lot of impressive coins there . . . but not my Air Force 1 coin. I’ll post a photo of that soon.
I’m trying to convince my wife to let me have the same type of display Bugstrider has.
So far no joy.
Bugstrider . . . Did BG Olds present you the coin with his photo on it ? He was one Badass Aviator. I remember his family/foundation sent them as a “Thank You” for supporting a charity of theirs. I wish I got one. |
Unfortunately not, I would have gladly given a body part to meet the legend. I was in touch with his surviving daughter who finished his book and had the coins made up. I was able to get four personalized autographed books and coins from her. I presented personalized books to my father, brother who was a career AF guy and who still works at Beale AFB as a government contractor and a dear friend who retired a full bird Colonel, who drove F-111’s, F-4’s, F-16’s n F-15’s.
Thanks for the link to your post, I just added a topic to this thread out of good fun. Absolutely no dis-respect to your original thread that you created.
The cases, I found at Michale’s. They run specials from time to time and I have picked several up and given them to family and friends that have a collection of coins.
