Coin Design Features
What does a military challenge coin say? Our custom coins express the gratitude, pride, and honor. Meanwhile, others celebrate a job well done or foster a sense of familiarity and friendship. Whatever the case may be, if you have a group worth celebrating, we’re here to help express your thanks. This month’s coin is an army coin designed to honor the 205th Military Intelligence Battalion. With much of the bold blue, yellow, and green accents set against a timeless silver-plated coin, this coin is an example of class with sleek design details.
On one side of the coin’s face reads, “205th Military Intelligence Battalion” in big bold letters encircling the top border of the coin. In addition, the phrase “Pacific Vigilance” is embossed across the bottom of the coin. In the center is a detailed scrawling depiction of the 205th Military Intelligence Battalion Unit Crest, complete with detailed white torches either side of a black torch with red flames. Meanwhile, the other side of the coin also features a smaller unit crest towards the bottom left. There is also a raised outline of the state of Hawaii filled in with an eye-catching green color. The border on this side of the coin is diamond cut and serves as a compelling contrast when compared to the other side of the coin’s face. Across the top of the coin reads, “Commander’s Coin of Excellence” with the phrase “Pakipika Maka ‘Ala” written across the bottom. This month’s silver coin is reflective of the many design layouts and features that our team can accommodate. For our team, no idea is too great!
About the 205th Military Intelligence Battalion
September’s coin of the month highlights the service of the 2015th Military Intelligence Brigade. They have three battalions all of them with a history that dates as far back as World War II in 1944 and has been in continuous active service since then. After their service in northern France, Ardennes-Alsace, the Rhineland, and Central Europe, the group was then reorganized as the 205th on June 25th of 1958. They have also offered their expertise to the Vietnam War efforts, such as taking part in the Tet Offensive, and took part in Operation Iraqi Freedom.
