Coast Guard Auxiliary Challenge Coins
Create challenge coins to best represent your Coast Guard Auxiliary crew
“Semper Paratus,” “Always Ready,” the official motto of the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, an organization charged with improving and promoting boating safety, providing trained crews to maintain coastal security, and supporting Coast Guard operational requirements. Organizationally separate from the military Coast Guard, auxiliarists take part in dangerous aquatic missions including search and rescue operations, responding to natural disasters, and mass evacuations. Auxiliarists demonstrating initiative, strong work ethic, and bravery during these operations are often awarded unique Coast Guard challenge coins in recognition of their stellar performance.
At Signature Coins, we have been in the business of crafting high-quality custom-designed challenge coins for over 15 years. Our company understands these coins hold value going beyond the metal plating and every order will tell a hundred stories to a hundred different people. We are a trusted source of these mementos in every branch of the nation’s military and strive towards meeting the same standards of excellence as our clients in the military.
What Are (USCG) Coast Guard Auxiliary Challenge Coins?
Challenge coins are unique symbols gifted to Coast Guard auxiliarists by their commanding officers in recognition of service and solidarity. Some challenge coins are given to every member of a unit or crew in order to build tighter bonds between servicemembers. Other challenge coins may be awarded to auxiliarists demonstrating exceptional heroism or participating in a particularly harrowing mission such as a search and rescue on a capsizing ship or a timely response to a massive hurricane. Over the course of their career, a service member will likely gather quite a collection of unique coins with a unique story attached to each and every one of them.
Receiving or gifting a challenge coin is a ubiquitous tradition in nearly every branch of the military and we are honored in our role of designing and supplying these unique products to servicemembers posted on land, sea, and air. Some officers in the Coast Guard order simple circular challenge coins with mottos like Semper Paratus and the official emblems printed on both sides, while others develop entirely unique designs with 3D facing, bottle openers, and shapes that might not even fit the traditional mold of a coin.

Signature Coins is Here to Help
Some of our clients come to us with a design drawn on paper and ready to print, others only have vague concepts scribbled on the back of a napkin, and some clients aren’t even sure where to start. Whichever best describes you, Signature Coins is here to help.

We offer free artwork of every design as we go through the process of helping you design a coin, so you know exactly how an order of coins will come out when it’s delivered. Additionally, we do unlimited revisions of a coin based on client feedback of the initial proof. Your order won’t go to production until it’s exactly as you want it.
