Peter K. Hsu, an artist & naval architect, began painting AEGIS ships for the Naval Sea Systems Command (NAVSEA) in 1987. His drawings have become a prominent feature at the christening and commissioning ceremonies for most AEGIS Cruisers and Destroyers. This drawing includes Fort Ticonderoga and the first 4 ships to bear the name Ticonderoga. It also shows two views of Wayne Meyer, the Father of AEGIS, the USS Norton Sound, AVM-1 which was the test platform for the AEGIS program and buildings at Naval Surface Warfare Center, Port Hueneme, CA. The drawing shows the ship crest, motto and dates of the Christening, Commissioning and Decommissioning. And it shows the ship sponsor, Nancy Reagan breaking the bottle at the Christening ceremony. This drawing is 18 X 24. Cost $10.

The commemorative antique bronze coins are made by the Northwest Territorial Mint in Auburn, WA. All have the same design which depicts the cruiser on the front along with the ship's motto "First and Formidable" and the words "First AEGIS Cruiser." On the back are the dates of the Christening, Commissioning and Decommissioning. The ship crest is also on the back along with the name of the sponsor, Nancy Reagan. All coins come in a clear acrylic capsule and are two inches in diameter.
Each coin will come in a glassine envelope in which is the same insert card that is in the postal cachets. This insert card has a beautiful color picture of the ship with the battle flag flying and the crest and dates of commissioning and decommissioning on one side and on the back a black and white picture showing the ships characteristics.
Antique bronze coin - $15Three cachets were designed and printed to commemorate the Decommissioning. They are printed on legal sized envelopes. One Cachet has a picture on the left of the ship with the battle flag flying. It has the name and motto under the ship and the dates of commissioning and decommissioning to the right. On the back is a list of all the Commanding Officers and their dates of service.
Another Cachet has the 8 sided Radar Shield in Gray with the ship crest in the middle. Underneath it says Decomissioned Today.

All Cachets were cancelled on the ship on 30 September 2004. The ship cancellation has the AEGIS shield with CG-47 under the ship. In the killer bars to the right it says Decommissioned Today, USS TICONDEROGA CG-47, Sept. 30, 2004, FPO AA 34093-1158. Most of the stamps used for the ship cancellation is the USS CONSTELLATION Sailing ship stamp.

The cancellation also used the AEGIS Shield with the Pascagoula Zip Code of 39567 under the ship. On the left side of the shield is the word PASCAGOULA going upward and on the right side is the word MISSISSIPPI going downward.
