Commemorative 2001 American Silver Eagle coin dedicated to the "Heroes of Flight 93" from the September 11, 2001 attacks. 

Design: The coin features a colorized image of a bald eagle and an American flag, with text "In Memory Heroes of Flight 93 September 11, 2001" and the year "2001". 

Base Coin: It is based on the American Silver Eagle, which features Lady Liberty on the obverse and an eagle design on the reverse. 

Significance: This particular coin serves as a tribute to the passengers and crew of United Airlines Flight 93, who bravely resisted hijackers during the 9/11 attacks, preventing the plane from reaching its intended target. 

The coin features a quote attributed to Todd Beamer, a passenger on Flight 93, who uttered "Are you ready guys? Let's roll." before passengers and crew attempted to regain control of the hijacked aircraft from terrorists.

The coin features a quote attributed to the passengers of United Airlines Flight 93: "We're being hijacked. We're going to do something. I know I'm not going to get out of this... Are you ready guys? Let's roll."

Flight 93 was one of four planes hijacked during the 9/11 attacks, and it crashed in a field in Stonycreek Township, Pennsylvania, after the passengers' and crew's intervention prevented it from reaching its intended target, believed to be the U.S. Capitol Building.

The phrase "Let's roll" became a symbol of American resolve and heroism in the aftermath of the attacks.
