New Coins for Christmas

I got some new coins for Christmas that are really cool.


I got the 2009 50 Cent Holiday Coin. It has a picture of a toy train the is a hologram. It looks like it`s moving if you move the coin.





My mom also got me a coin that was made from the metal of the Apollo the 11th, the first space ship to land on the moon in 1969.

I think it`s cool cause it was on the moon and in outer space.







Another one of my favorite coins I got was a coin that was recovered from the Admiral Gardner ship wreck. The coin was found at the bottom of the ocean. It was made in 1808. On it`s way to India, the ship got stuck in a storm and sank. They found the ship wreck in 1985.
