Ranger challenge coins

Post by Ranger Ron »

I have a collection of Ranger challenge coins. I have a number US Army and other coins but mostly am looking for Ranger coins of various kinds. Pretty much any coin that refers to Rangers in any way. (Even have a USS Ranger coin for the fun of it.) If anyone has an extra coin that you would be willing to part with, let me know how much you want for it and I would certainly consider buying it if I don't already have it. You can PM me or my contact info is in the roster.

So, let's have a COIN CHECK :roll:

Yeah, we have one for the Vietnamese Ranger advisors (Biet Dong Quan), but I don't know how to post a picture of it. I'll ask the Great Ape for help.

If you have a picture of it, I could probably help you get it posted.

Do you have extra an coin or are they for sale somewhere that you know of? I watch ebay most of the time but have most of the ones on there.

It would be fun to see it even if I can't obtain one.

Yeah right! Although I do have a USS Ranger coin, I have passed on the Royal Ranger and the Power Ranger coins. I should have known you all could come up with some off the wall coins.

My most interesting coin. This one is an ivory 3rd Group coin, made in the Ivory Coast.

Some guys in 5th Group had solid gold group coins made up when we were in Abu Dhabi, but I wasn't rich enough to get one.
