Originally, I didn't plan on doing that one. But, because of Air Conditioning problems in the USS Chicago Ship-7, they moved a bunch of sailors to the USS Marvin Shields Ship-13.

I don't make the decisions on which coins get done. All I do is design them and make the story about them. PIRGift.com is the ones who have the final authority on what gets done and when they post them on Ebay.

I will suggest to them that the USS Marvin Shields should get bumped up the list since they are having problems with the USS Chicago....
