Challenge Coins
Police & Firefighter Challenge Coins
Challenge coins are a long-standing tradition in the military, law enforcement and the fire service. They are handed out to mark a promotion, a graduation, a certification or simply a job well done, and many people keep a collection on a desk or shelf. This category holds coins for both police and fire: Thin Blue Line coins, Thin Red Line coins (including one with the Firefighter's Prayer), Saint Michael coins, and ASP coins tied to baton and tactical training.
How to choose
- Who it is for: Thin Blue Line designs honor law enforcement, while Thin Red Line designs honor firefighters. St. Michael is traditionally regarded as the patron saint of police officers.
- Occasion: An ASP Certified coin fits a training graduation; a prayer or patron-saint coin makes a thoughtful gift for a new recruit or a retirement.
- Display: Coin stands, shadow boxes and capsules help protect the finish if you plan to keep the coin on display.
