Challenge coins are
great souvenirs and versatile,
enticing keepsakes. Since the early 1930s, challenge coins
have been used to promote friendships, strengthen bonds, and
encourage success. For nearly a century, military personnel
have created personalized challenge coins and used them to raise
awareness and funds, educate the public about pressing issues,
and honor exceptional individuals within a unit in the Army,
Navy, Air Force, Marines, and Coast Guard.
Late in the spring of 2011, the Northern Virginia Council board
of directors voted to have a customized challenge coin
produced for the Council. Several drafts of both
sides of the coin were reviewed, and the winning design is shown
above.
We received our shipment of the coins in mid-September.
Of course, the Navy League logo was copied
intact.
The result is a bright "blue & gold" coin you will be proud to
own.
Its diameter is 1.75 inches, solid metal -- designed to last.
NOVA Council is selling the coins
for just $2.00 above cost, and any profit we realize will
go towards the John Camp Memorial Scholarship Fund or to help
fund monetary awards for members of our adopted ships and units.
See the bar on the left side of this page for the list of our
adopted commands.
