WTC 2001 Silver Eagle

The 2001 silver eagle BU PCGS certified coin was the most common coin found at the vault under the world trade center. It took months to retrieve the coins from the sub-basement where the vault with these coins where located. Some special WTC 2001 Coin to look for would be coins found to display heat marks making the coin black in spots. These coins are often referred as “end roll coins” because they where the last or first coin in a role and these coins would have absorbed most of the destructive power of the falling buildings and the fire that burned at the world trade center. If anybody as any creditable information on population on this or any other coin talk about in this blog please post a comment or write me an email.

$1 Silver Eagle 2001 MS69

The 2001 $1 Silver Eagle MS69 is a little more rare than the 2001 BU but its still a coin that can still be found on E-bay or other online auction places. The coin is very collectable as its the year of the 9-11 attacks. If I could only buy one coin and did not have the money for the gold coins this would be the coin I would buy. As a matter of a fact this was the first WTC recovery coin I ever bought. There is a section on this blog dedicated to the appreciation in value of this coin as its represents a part of the WTC recovery coins with the most appeal for people just wanting to have one coin from the vault.

A coin dealer was offering the following in 2004:

1/10 gold coin and a Liberty Silver dollar, both PCGS MS69, they had 198 sets of these available, and the coins are dated 2001. Price for both coins in 2004 $425.
