Cook Islands 2021 Firefighter - Real Heroes – Only the Brave are Free - 9/11 3 Oz Pure Silver Black Proof CIT Smartminting® Nobody will forget the heroism of the Firefighter facing unimaginable circumstances during the 9/11 attacks. Images of courage and bravery seared into our consciousness forever. More recently, we have seen many images of these heroes in action fighting the wildfires of the world.
CIT is proud to honor this “Real Hero” by presenting a most stunning coin ever done of the Firefighter. A tribute to not only those who gave the ultimate sacrifice during 9/11, but to all Firefighters that we count on to keep us safe.
This 3 oz Black Proof measures 50 mm in diameter and features a stunning, realistic image of a Firefighter from the New York City Fire Department. The number 343 on the helmet honors the Firefighters that died in the Twin Towers.
Thanks to enhanced smartminting® technology the ultra high relief, partly polished honeycomb pattern and extremely detailed elements reaching to and even over the edge of the coin and generate a striking design. The visor that protects the firefighter's eyes from the dangerous smoke and gases is a unique overlay making this coin even more special.
“ONLY THE BRAVE ARE FREE” and the illustration of the original Twin Towers on the obverse are a matching and worthy statement to honor these real heroes. A mintage of only 911 will be struck.
