Titanic Artifacts information

Now lying at the bottom of the Atlantic ocean, the RMS Titanic was though to be an unsinkable vessel. The apex of craftsmanship and grandeur at her time, the ship was the largest and most luxurious steam liner avaialable. When it struck an iceberg on April 14, 1912 four days into its maiden voyage, a historic tragedy was born. A death count of 1,517, traumatizing effects, and a disaster that would live on forever became the Titanic’s legacy. Throughout the years, many Titanic artifacts have been recovered from the wreck and are among the most desired collectibles known. Most artifacts from the Titanic can be seen at the National Maritime Museum, but some have been sold to private collectors for a hefty sum of money. Here are some of the most unique Titanic artifacts ever discovered in the few expeditions to the fallen vessel.

R.M.S. TITANIC LIMITED EDITION 100th ANNIVERSARY COMMEMORATIVE COAL COIN

Don’t Miss this Unique Opportunity to Own a Piece of Titanic History:
It has been nearly 100 years since the R.M.S. Titanic met its grim fate in the North Atlantic Ocean.  To honor the occasion, a limited edition commemorative coin containing rare coal salvaged from the Titanic is now available to the public for the first time.
Individually Certified and Beautifully Crafted:
Each Titanic coal coin is engraved with its own unique registration number, includes a Certificate of Authenticity issued by R.M.S. Titanic Inc. and comes encased in a clear acrylic protective capsule. These beautifully crafted, limited edition coins feature a bronze embossed finish containing an image of the R.M.S. Titanic and the words “100th Anniversary 1912- 2012″ on one side, while the other side contains pieces of authentic Titanic coal used to fuel the ship and the words “Authentic Coal from R.M.S. Titanic”.
Titanic Coal – The Only Recovered Titanic Item Allowed to be Sold to the Public:
A U.S. Federal Court has ruled that Titanic coal is the only recovered item from the ship that may be purchased by the public, making it a rare and valuable piece of history.
A Rare Investment Opportunity:
Due to the cost and difficulty of recovering items from the Titanic, only a limited quantity of coal has been recovered, all of which has been inventoried by weight and quantity and certified by the United States Customs Service as having been recovered from the wreck of the Titanic. The scarcity, authenticity and historical significance of these elegant coins makes them a unique investment opportunity with a value that can almost certainly be predicted to escalate with the passage of time.
