Florida Challenge Coins
Florida Garrison Challenge Coin
As this 501st Legion challenge coin shows, translucent red enamel and high polish gold plating make for one of the most striking combinations available. Not to be outdone, the translucent blue on the back is also an impressive touch.
Orlando Pride Coin
This high polish gold coin was created by the FBI in honor of the first responders and agents who worked tirelessly during the Pulse attack in Orlando. At just 1.75", this coin is a masterclass at fitting a lot of information in a small space. Everything from the date, to the pulse line, to the ribbon and the 49 stars representing the lives lost in the attack fit on the coin without feeling cluttered.
Sarasota County Firefighter Coin
Firefighter challenge coins will often include a reference to the thin red line like this coin. Including a nod to the important equipment that firefighters use on the job, like the pick and ax in this design, is another design cue that will make a set of bottle opener coins more meaningful and memorable to a team.
Winter Park Police
The oblique line edge gives this coin a special and almost sharp feel. The recessed text staring out from the high polish gold plating is also a nice touch.

Okaloosa County Criminal Investigations Division
The Latin phrase below the knight, tueri innocentem reum persequendum, translates to "Aims to protect the innocent prisoner." Including Latin in a custom coin design is sometimes the best way to impart a message.

Police Department Challenge Coin Gallery
Custom law enforcement challenge coins are used in police departments to instill a sense of camaraderie and membership between different members of a police department and to remind them of their duty to local communities. The coins themselves are collectible tokens of recognition with origins in the military, though they have since become popular with other organizations in the government and with civilian agencies.
Within law enforcement organizations like OPD, challenge coins reward officers for their duty and are also used by officers on occasion to recognize outstanding members of the public who help identify or solve crimes. Police challenge coins may also be traded to members of different police departments as a sort of cooperative memento commemorating a joint venture or meeting.
While it’s common for individual units to maintain their own challenge coins between their members, police chiefs and other higher-ranked officials may also commission their own custom set to be gifted out to outstanding officers, staff, or members of the public who have earned their personal regard.
