Cheryl...totally appropriate....RTC Coin or perhaps his Ship....and by all means...start a collection that follows his accomplishments (rate/rating/assignments) as he progresses!
Question ... My son is PIR Boot Camp end of this month. Is it inappropriate of me to get him one of these coins for RTC Great Lakes as a keepsake for graduation? Am thinking this would be a good starter for a potential collection ... Does it have to be awarded or anything?

Anyone finding any really unique display cases for your coins?
not exactly re: coins, but think I have some more coin holders to build-----ran across this from Woodcraft: original teak from the deck of the USS North Carolina BB-55. The North Carolina was the lead ship of the North Carolina class of battleships.....decommissioned in 1947 and now a museum in Wilmington NC. Here is a link to the sale http://www.woodcraft.com/search2/search.aspx?query=USS+North+Carolina
