We had a first responders day at church this last weekend. Our Rep. Greg Steube handed out some VERY nice challenge coins to EMS, Nurses and Police.
Got me wondering about it. There is a website https://allaboutchallengecoins.com/ and others (google it) to give you and idea for time and cost.
So what do you think? Is this a worthwhile endeavor or already done it. don't care?

The bottle opener coins would be cool.

As a military guy, these are very common and collected. I'm for it.

I agree and have many of these from my time in the Army and a few given by customers in support of military programs.

I'm thinking of a color filled Factory Five Logo on one side, and Cobra car or truck on the other side. Any ideas other that this?
You could keep it generic and do the FFR logo on one side and the "Built not bought" logo on the other.
You'll likely need to get FFR's permission before the coin maker will make your coins.
For what it's worth, this thread has me thinking of getting coins made for my team that I manage.

I worked a great deal with Law Enforcement and CBP in the US and across the globe. The challenge coins were always welcomed and I was happy to receive them as well. Always a collectors item. I'm thinking maybe something club related. The Cape Coral Cobra Club I belong to has all kinds of Cobras as well as Shelby Mustang Cobras. Maybe something with the CCCC logo on one side and generic Shelby on the other. Would be fun to get other clubs to create their own and exchanging/collecting a great bonding thing.

I sent a request to info for Dave Smith to read this topic.
