challenge coins?

what are they for? do they come w/ the knife or only sold separately ?

Remember: If the challenged cannot produce their coin they are required to buy a drink of choice for the member who challenged them. If the challenged member produces his coin, then the challenging member must pay for the drink!

This tradition continues at ScrapYard Knives.

and they are not included with a knife, they are available from the company store

the first part of that is from the stores description

How does somene know who is a coin holder?

I was wondering that myself

You don't but that's the point, if they don't have their coin you owe them a drink, if they do, you owe them one. So you want to catch people without theirs. I was at a busse meet and Ted showed me his, I owe him one, haha.

You don't know,but hope they don't have one or can't produce theirs.

LOL, I forgot about that!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" />

Welcome Battlehawk <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" />- great to have you here <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/thumbup.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />.

Battle Hawk, WELCOME to the ADDICTION! And this one IS NOT against the law! I first heard of "challenge coins" in the military. First heard of them associated with "Elete Units" as a mark of belonging. Don't know if it originated there or not. BUT the drink tradition is the same. If you got one and they don't, THEY owe you. If they HAVE theirs, (and you do to) THEY owe YOU. If they got theirs and you don't, you owe them. I have also heard it that you MUST buy a drink for ANYONE that has their coin and hears or sees the challenge if you loose the challange.

Hello there, and welcome to the Yard.
Here you go

i lost mine #52 at Knob Creek <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/frown.gif" alt="" />...the replacement shipped today <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

That is awesome Sumo.

Sound like fun. I need to get one.

That is SWEET that you got a replacement. Sorry to hear that you lost it though!

What number Saint?

I don't have it yet K. It is in with my Reg. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/2weeks.gif" alt="" /> + <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/2weeks.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crossfingers.gif" alt="" />
I'm gonna be looking for #115 though. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Although I already have my coin with the number - #001 - I am anxious to get my next coin next month - a Challenge Coin tattoo. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

......WOW....WOW...order confirmation 4-22-2010 10:12 AM......delivered 4-23-2010 11:30 AM.....did i say WOW.......#213.......

Congrats Clint,now you need a holder for it. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

anyone know where 108 is i would be grateful

Well, you'd never be without a Logo at least. But does it count as a coin? I think we should vote on it. Metal or no?

You're correct on the last one. I've seen many a GB buy a round at the Green Beret hangout I frequent (not being specops myself, I only get one if thier generous.) It's kind of a one time thing though, unless the challenger leaves for a long time and comes back much much later (deployment, coming back on leave, etc.) You cant just come to the bar and spam for free drinks with your coin, lol.

Still looking for #96. OK, Who's got it?

I should know what number mine is on Monday.

Let us know.

I'm going to want 116 or 117.

Got mine thanks to a great Dawg in AZ.



Keep looking...they're out there...

No way to tell...unless challenged...no coin then you buy the drink. The excuse I never got a coin does not float. The Dogs are thirsty bunch <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

I have committed to never leave home without it, I did that once! Hey ColdOne how was that beer?

Dan

SAVE 116 for me!!!

I'm almost there.

Well I was just informed that CC 115 is out here in the yard. If any one has it I would be very interested in getting it. Thanks guys.

I voted that you HAD to have an actual coin. Tats are nice, and cost WAY more than a coin (which shows dedication). BUT, whoever hear of a Jarhead without at Tattoo, that would be just be cheating! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> Hi Tom! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Randy, you DOG!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> And Hey! I already have a bulldog on the other arm!!! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
