[QUOTE="Cazkaboom, post: 4010472, member: 33215"]Thanks for explaining that rule. I didn't quite know how exonumia worked in the game. Back in 2011 or 2012, my uncle came while I was at my grandma's house shooting some coins. I had just started collecting coins, so I didn't know about any exonumia save for Chuck-E-Cheese's game tokens. He pulled out his wallet and asked me "Do you know what a Challenge Coin is? Me, new, said no. He explained the rules and a bit of history behind challenge coins. He then produced his to show me. I was 16 at the time. I was in high school at the time and participated in the JROTC program. When we were issued our uniforms, our MSgt gave us challenge coins and a tidbit of history. Until my uncle produced his, I only thought it was a military thing. Didn't know other civil service jobs had their own participated in challenging. Game. Set. Match. I pulled out my wallet and produced my own. All he said after that was "You sly dog! Do you want a glass of milk or a juice box??" I snagged his to take a picture, as I thought the design was quite beautiful. A year later, he gave me a couple he had duplicates of. Now I have to dig them out and photograph them.
