ARTIFACT: This is an Extremely Rare Early 1960's 10th Special Forces Group Trojan Horses Challenge Coin of Rigger Taylor.

Challenge coins were originally used by Special Forces to recognize soldiers for outstanding acts, team training, unit identification, to boost esprit de corps, and to build camaraderie. Today, all military and many law enforcement units have challenge coins. Traditionally, "coining" was executed to see if fellow soldiers were carrying their unit's coin. In the Viet Nam era this tradition was modified slightly so that the loser of the challenge was obligated to buy a round of drinks. Today Challenge Coins are handsomely presented in display cases for everyone's enjoyment. Many people trade these coins at training and collect other department/unit coins.

VINTAGE: Early 1960s.

SIZE: Approximately 1-9/16" in diameter.

MATERIALS / CONSTRUCTION: Coin Silver.

ATTACHMENT: N/A.

MARKINGS: RIGGER TAYLOR

ITEM NOTES: This is from a US Army collection which we will be listing more of over the next few months. MEJV07 LFGEX03/01/23

CONDITION: 7 (Very Fine): The coin shows minor wear, and tarnish. Challenge coin carrying many stories of the Rigger Taylor. I wish coin can tell us his story!

GUARANTEE: As with all my artifacts, this piece is guaranteed to be original, as described.
