From where?................
(I placed my hand on the Titanic once.
I own a piece of Titanic coal.)
Well what do you know, so do I. Mine is in a small glass case with a plaque with my name engraved on it as owner of Titanic coal anthracite. It comes with a certificate of authenticity. I actually purchased it from RMS Titanic LTD in 1996 after the owner, George Tulloch, obtained salvage rights to the Titanic. Mine comes from the 1994 salvage expedition. I have it on my fireplace mantel to this day.
I did too. I went to a Titanic exhibit in Boston several years ago. They had a side panel of the ship on display that they had retrieved from the ocean floor. It was in an outside tented area. Still had water being washed over it for preservation purposes. It clearly had a sign on it not to touch it. A guy next to me said: "Oh go ahead, touch it. You know you want to." So I did. Didn't get caught thankfully.
