This is absolutely awesome! It covers everything that’s going on currently. It’s interesting and historic. And the satin luster is really attractive. Five stars on this one!

    I'd love one with that Fed side paired with the old Uncle Scam Wants You In Debt from way back. My copper one with the helicopter dropping money is a conversation starter when I carry it around.

    I'm mixed on them. They are a neat way to remember this historic event, but parts of me don't want to remember it.

    It's this one, in copper. http://www.dc-coin.com/2008hardtimestoken536minted-2-2.aspx

    Mine is chocolate colored at this point after years in the pocket...

    I have an exhaustive DC collection. I will not be adding this piece but understand why others would. Not for me

    This I have to think about

  • JBKJBK Posts: 16,726 ✭✭✭✭✭

    I have almost all the so-called Hard Times tokens from D Carr. I expect I'll add this one as well.

    Good reminders of history.

    I bought 2 and wish I grabbed a couple more. I didn’t think I would like them and almost passed but they are actually really nice, I like them a lot.

    I like them... a nice silver round to 'commemorate' this chapter in our lives....Might get one. My wife is looking for a birthday gift for me... ;):D Cheers, RickO

    All he has are the bright shiny ones. Maybe you can convince him to artificially tone one for you. :D

    My wife is partial to the "To infinity and beyond" design. We like it a lot. This chapter for humankind needs this memorium and then some. Peace Roy

    I as on the web site and the one showed was dark in color. Is that normal?

  • 291fifth291fifth Posts: 24,854 ✭✭✭✭✭

    This Covid19 medal is likely to be in demand far into the future because of its very interesting subject matter.

    All glory is fleeting.

    Mine arrived on Monday. I like the simple obverse design and the satin finish. Has that medical brushed steel look. I also purchased one of the silver center chain cents.. really lovely.

    Mr. Carr certainly puts out a good product and this new covid medal is no exception. I focus primarily on his Knights of the Coin Table series.

    Could this become a problem? Disney owns the trademark for "To Infinity and Beyond!" (Though apparently they "abandoned" it, so perhaps Mr. Carr is in the clear?)
