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?

I need a bigger one apparently as my son seems to be hopping all over the place. I'd like to find one of those triangles, or perhaps one that looks like a ship.

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
