Showcase of our best challenge coins



Custom challenge coins are medallions or emblems made of copper, brass, silver and rarely gold. The oldest usage of challenge coins in history can be traced back to Ancient Rome, when soldiers who demonstrated valor on the day’s battle were presented with a challenge coin as a memento. Later in history challenge coin usage sprouted-up during the World War I, when a rich American lieutenant of one flying squadron presented all the unit members with a challenge coin and one of the pilots who received the challenge coin from the Lieutenant later got caught by Germans after his plane was bombed-down. The Germans to be sure that the American pilot does not escape stripped out all his identities but for the challenge coin he possessed.

 Later on, one night, taking chance out of a heavy bombing on the German-held territory; the American pilot sneaked out from the German incarceration and escaped. By sheer chance he ended-up in a French-held territory after escaping from the Germans. The Germans mistaking him for a traitor missing to notice his American accent ordered his execution. Fortune smiled on the American pilot through a French officer who happened to notice his challenge coins and identified his affiliation to the US squadron; with this the American pilot was relieved of the execution. This successful escape of the American pilot just because of the challenge coin was responsible for making it mandatory for all the military men to carry challenge coins.
