Challenge Coin Textures: Meaning, Options & Benefits
Texture is a surface treatment applied to certain areas of a coin, creating slightly raised or recessed patterns such as cross lines or random spots. Shiny metal surfaces often feel too bright because the polished raw metal and dense plating resemble mirrors. Texture and antique finishes help reduce this glare.

I have GS-JJ for pins and patches for a couple of years now and their work has been fantastic! I recently had occasion to use them for my first challenge coin order and they did not disappoint. I emailed Sally, my rep, with the concept and she and her team of designers brought my concept to life. Sally did her usual outstanding job of taking care of me and getting my order to me quickly. I highly recommend using GS-JJ.

Challenge Coin History
For a deeper understanding of what challenge coins are, it's important to learn the history. The actual origin of challenge coins may never be known. Below are the most popular stories about the history of the military coin, also known as command coin.

WWI Coin History: Are You Interested?
During World War I, in one squadron, a wealthy lieutenant ordered medallions struck in solid bronze and presented them to his unit. One young pilot placed the medallion in a small leather pouch that he wore around his neck.
It became a tradition to ensure that all unit members carried their medallion or coin at all times. So that is the story behind challenge coin history and traditions.

WWII Coin History: Know More?
Another tradition dates to US Military service members assigned to occupy post-World War II Germany. WWII history is also an indispensable part to understand the history of coins and what challenge coins are.
With the exchange rate, the West German One Pfennig coin was worth only a fraction of a U.S. cent, and they were generally considered not to have enough value to be worth keeping unless one was broke.

Vietnam Coin History: Why Not Read?
The tradition of the military coins dates back to Vietnam, actually, when soldiers would tote along with a piece of “lucky” ordnance that had helped them or narrowly missed them. What were Challenge Coins during this period? At first, it was small arms ammunition, but this practice grew to much bigger and more dangerous ordnance as time wound on.
