The attack on the World Trade Center in New York City on September 11, 2001, was part of a larger coordinated attack. The terrorists behind the plot to attack the United States hijacked planes originating at airports on the US East Coast that had full loads of fuel for cross-country flights. Two of the planes targeted the World Trade Center in New York, while two more were destined for Washington D.C.
One of those other two planes made it to its destination, striking the Pentagon in Washington D.C. The other plane was brought down by brave Americans on board who fought back against the hijackers and forced the plane’s crash landing in a field in Pennsylvania. In the two decades that have passed, Americans have vowed never to forget the events of that tragic day.
The obverse of the 1 oz 9/11 20th Anniversary Copper Rounds features an image of the smoldering wreckage of one of the towers at the World Trade Center. This image was made famous in the aftermath of the attack as smoke rose from the site for days as rescuers worked to try and find any possible survivors, while also recovering the remains of those lost on that day. In this design, the American bald eagle stands watch on the right as the American flag swoops around the building on the left.
On the reverse of 1 oz 9/11 20th Anniversary Copper Rounds is a common design used on various copper collections from the issuer. The heart of the design features the wings of an eagle spread wide with a version of the US national shield at the center.
These 1 oz 9/11 20th Anniversary Copper Rounds are available to purchase brand new from the mint. The rounds will arrive individually in plastic flips, in tubes for multiples of 20, or in Monster Boxes for multiples of 500. The box holds 25 tubes of 20 rounds each.
