@Coctaanatis Army challenge coins are special coins that are typically given to members of the military, particularly in the U.S. Army, to commemorate significant achievements or accomplishments. The coins often feature emblems, insignias, or unit logos and are seen as symbols of pride, camaraderie, and belonging. The exact origin of challenge coins is disputed, but they are believed to have originated during World War I. According to one popular story, a wealthy officer in the Army Air Corps had bronze medallions made for his unit, which they wore in leather pouches around their necks. One pilot's plane was shot down over enemy territory, and he managed to escape capture, only to be mistaken for an enemy soldier. He was almost executed, but he presented his medallion to prove his identity as an American. Since then, the tradition of carrying challenge coins has spread throughout the military.
