This is one of the more colorful coins in my collection with one side nearly completely enamled with the red, green, and yellow leaf emblem of the 24th division. The other side is a great example of how these coins are somtimes identified with a serial number. The eagle at the top is the rank insignia of an army colonel because these coins were only given out by the brigade commander who was a colonel. "Sledgehammer" was the nickname of our brigade and that is why you see the hammer on the back.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
