I like the commemorative coin with the mushroom cloud rising over Baghdad a lot better.

Hey, ummm, can you post the header of that email to confirm it? I would think that something like this would be posted in the front page or at least in the news section of USAA's website and it's not. I can't even find it ANYWHERE on their website for that matter (and yes, I am a member).

I'm not accusing you of anything, but I just don't want to call a random phone # and give out my personal details, yaknow?

This deal is for real. I'm a USAA member and am pissed I don't get something cool.

I've been with USAA for almost two years. I called and said I heard about this promo... blah blah blah. The lady asked for my USAA membership number, which I didn't have with me. She looked it up using my SSAN, then said thank you and that I will receive the coin in the mail in 4 to 6 weeks.
