To be coined in the military means a commander or first sergeant gives you a coin during a handshake, usually immediately after the work that earned it. The coin is a personal award from that leader, and it goes in a pocket rather than on a uniform. Later it often joins a display at home. Commanders carry honor coins so they can do this without waiting on a ceremony. When you order the run, include the unit and the reason so the recipient can show the coin and explain how they were coined.
