What are challenge coins?
The modern history of challenge coins dates back to World War I, and has enjoyed a long and proud heritage.

Veterans have taken this tradition into the civilian world, where it has been adopted by law enforcement and other entities.

The cost is dependent on many factors, such as quantity, finish, and optional features (i.e., edging, laser engraving).
