I'm trying to find out this information for the article I'm writing for the American Numismatic Association's July 2019 edition of their magazine; The Numismatist.

I'm trying to find out about any flown coins during the Mercury and Gemini era. For what it's worth, I know about:

  • Grissom's dimes on Liberty Bell 7 (and several coins during GT-3)
  • On GT-4, McDivitt brought a variety of coinage
  • Cooper brought a gold coin on GT-5
  • Schirra brought a nickel aboard GT-6
  • Armstrong brought a gold coin (for someone else) on GT-8
Any others that you are aware of would certainly be helpful to me. Thank you!

All times are CT (US)
