I ordered the 28th, the third day. I says backordered until 3/23. Cancel boxes still there.

Because I always check threads that have 0 posts to them and want to give them a post if I can.....

I also think it is not the best idea for a comm dollar and wanted that to be known.....

Personally, I like the coin. I like the design and the cause. In my opinion it's a nice addition to the commemoratives and worth while collecting.

I like the coin. It is a nice show of appreciation to our vets. I will be getting a couple for my family members that are serving in the military and those that are retired.

Commemorating veterans is a fairly worthy topic of a commemorative coin, IMO.

silvergoldnut

i will order none, poor design.

but it did fire me up to go to the American Veterans Disabled web site, and make a donation of what it would cost for the coin.

TAKE THAT MR. MOY !!!!!

support the cause , not the coin..... i think its time to see the construction of the American Veterans Disabled for Life Memorial in Washington, D.C.,

I don't like the design, a more thoughtful, inspiring design could have been made as endearing keepsake . I believe while a good cause, there are much better, helpful ways to support disabled veterans. I guess if they put a collection box at the memorial, that will be something, other than another pretty memorial to look at (and have the tax payers maintain). I fault nobody for taking a pass on this one. I'm retired USN and also a DV.

I'll have to wait until I get my coins in hand until I make a decision.

I am a disabled vet that joined back when we had a draft. Didn't have to, but did because I felt it was my duty. Ended up serving 22 plus years Marines and Army. However, I wouldn't make a pimple on the butts of the modern soldier that volunteers today, knowing what they know! Desert Shield/Desert Storm, Iraq, Afghanistan, and others are my hero's now. I will support them in anyway that I can. I'll be ordering a couple commemoratives for sure. Cheers

got my proofs today ... excellent quality control by the Mint with my bunch.

Does anyone have the PCGS coin # for the proofs?

aficionado

Got mine yesterday. Just one each.

the coins are in good shape, won't have to send any back.

Got my coins the other day and I liked them as well. Being a Vet, I'm glad I bought them.

lcoopie

if you were ever going to buy a modern commemorative
I cannot think of a better group of people to support
than our veterans.

nycounsel

support the cause , not the coin.

I'm a vet and feel the same. Not a fan of the design, and only $10 of the purchase price goes to the cause; I'd sooner donate $10 or more directly.

Hmmm.....I rcvd the proofs over a week ago and the uncs came in yesterday (or maybe the other way around!)

We've had both PF and BU specimens in hand since the 11th. I totally applaud the subject, but the design is unimaginative and looks like a recycle of the Little Rock HS dollar. Considering this is about our vets I'd have thought they would have put a little more thought into it.

The better designs seem to always get rejected.
