I'm sure we all still remember the World Trade Center bombings that happened on September 11, 2001. But there is a story some of you may not know of or may not have heard of. Unbeknownst to millions of Americans when the Twin Towers fell on that dastardly day, no one expected to find anything salvageable, yet alone anything worth any real value. Inside the World Trade Center vaults was a vast accumulation of investment grade Silver, Gold and Platinum held by a assortment of fiscal institutions from around the globe including places such as the United States, Arabia, India, Germany, Russian and the United Kingdom!

When the Twin Towers fell, no one anticipated to find anything salvageable, however, on November 1st 2001 the workers at ground zero attained the Iron Mountain vault which was located directly underneath The Twin Towers. Inside this vault were silver, gold, and platinum bullion as well as various coins from around the globe that miraculously survived the incredible disaster. On November 1st, 2001, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani announced that "more than $230 million" worth of gold and silver bars that had been stored in a bomb-proof vault had been recovered underneath all the rubble and debris.

Under advanced security the coins were then loaded into several different Brinks Armored vehicles and sent to Collectors Universe a parent company of the well-known PCGS also known as Professional Coin Grading System. This particular organization is the archetypal company for collectors of coins. Once this organization collected all of the coins they then continued on to catalogue, grade and encapsulate in the PCGS high security tamper resistant capsules along with a specially designed commemorative United States Flag insert that identifies the coins as a genuine artifact. In fact this is actually the best way to know if a coin is really genuine or just some fake imitation, search for the US Flag and then you will truly know what you are buying.

There are several different coins for the disastrous event including; 2000 WTC Ground Zero Recovery gold eagle, silver eagle, and also a few uncirculated 1993 silver eagle gem. To buy these coins you can spend anywhere from $60 on up to $1000+. These coins truly are a piece of our history and its definitely a piece, if you could choose any piece, that you should have in your collections! It doesn't matter if your a master at collecting or if you are just starting out, or if you are going to keep these or sell these, this is a valuable part of history that you can take ownership over. Check these out the next time your online!
