About Us and the coins:
This project
began as an idea to memorialize the events of 9 - 11 and to create a method of
providing funds for the families that lost loved ones. One coin was planned and
as it materialized for the firefighters it became apparent that another was
needed for the Pentagon personnel. When two were designed, a third was
developed for E.M.S. & Police Officers. And as praise was given, it was
then decided to make a fourth for non public safety victims. This Coin, The
Patriots, will benefit victims and families from all three states, New York,
Pennsylvania and Virginia.

The COINS are made of high
quality metals with a SOLID Brass core and plated with a Silver Alloy metal.
The coins are DIE STRUCK not die cast and minted with HAND tooled DIES. And,
then hand painted with a BAKED on Enamel. Then, they are coated with a CLEAR
Epoxy coat to preserve the coins forever against the elements as well as human
skin oils. They are shipped in a BLUE Velvet box for not only safety but for
display.
The designs were developed by myself with the help of a few
very special people who contributed some of the artwork or photographs or
ideas. One is an Emergency Room Nurse who I have known for 20 years. She took
the image of Lower Mathatten with her son while visiting New York in 2000. I
edited it and de-saturated it and cropped out what was not needed. The image of
The Saint Florian was taken by the family (Marc Baron Tantillo) of an Austrian,
Josef Josephu, who created the 12 foot tall bronze statue that was completed in
1935. It survive WWII when the church that it stood in front of was hit with a
bomb. It is now located in the Vienna Fire Service Museum in Am Hof Austria.
His family gave me permission to use the photo as a draft for the coin. The
Saint Micheal image was taken by myself from a lawn statue. The Pentagon design
was drafted from a fabric patch created by a Virginia Fire Chief, Penny
Jingles. The other ideas came from my own thoughts and advice from friends and
family. I sketched the Lady Liberty from a photo my brother took when he lived
in New York in the 80's. The flag on the Patriots Coin was drafted from a
digital photo I took while in Northridge CA. on a mission for The Paramedics
For Children. It was a newly painted mural on the side of an office complex
near the parking lot. The finale artwork for all the coins were completed by
myself with the help of the coin manufactuer.
Truly this is an
international effort as well as a National one, as many people were involved.
It was funded privately by myself as well as managed and administered.
