Im thinning out my Challenge Coin collection and need to get rid of most of my coins. There will be no Second Chance Offers as this is the only one that I have. Let me know if you have any questions. This coin is NOT a reproduction. Nor is it a Chinese knock-off done by an overstamp the process of taking an authentic coin and stamping it wax to build a mold to make knock-offs. You can generally tell these coins by their lack of detail, shallow relief, poor epoxy and paint, and overall “something is not-quite-rightness” I have served in both the Army and Air Force, in the Pentagon for senior military leaders, at the Old Guard, the Army’s Escort to the President, and for numerous units all over the world. I know coins, know what they mean both as professional mementos and collectibles. I’m not by any means the fore most authority, but I’ve owned literally thousands of coins in my collection, and will do what I can to provide you with the highest quality product and information. The size, shape, and weight of your coin will dictate the packaging and how it is mailed. I take ALL photos in natural sun light to try to best capture true color. This can make some softer. Bronzes seem almost grey and shiny gold-tones appear silver. I find the natural sun light gives the best contrast for 3d detail and preserves natural epoxy color. The counter to this is it can also cause a glare at the tops of coins with High Gloss coatings. Please support your local VFW. Thank you for your consideration.
