The Few, The Brave, The Marines.... maryfrances54, IL Rating 1/7/2010
I have two sons-in-law who are Marines [once a Marine, always a Marine] and two brothers-in-law who are Marines {oaM,aaM], Their pride and connection to their brothers emblazed on this coin is priceless and eternal. None of my soldiers were required to give the full measure that Lincoln spoke of, but each gave his highest and best. I know their hearts. When I look into their eyes, I know without question, that to a man, each of them would have willingly and proudly spilled their life's blood on the sands of Iwo Jima. It's not always about what you did, sometimes it's about what you were willing to do. My husband and I were overjoyed to purchase a set for each of our heroes. The coin displays the seal of the Marine on the face with the planting of the face on the reverse. It's beautiful. One of the boys has been looking for one since 2005. The sand, the stamp and the presentation box are just over the top. A beautiful heritage to pass down.

Iwo Jima collection... Anonymous , VA Rating 6/5/2008
The coin was ok but I think price was a little steap for what you get.Not a very good representation and tribute when you think about how the marines suffered on that Island.Debating on whether or not to send it back for a refund.
