    How would this coin work ? Like is the challenge just buying it? Lol or do you hand it out whenever you see someone's truck you like ? I mean it's not a bad idea by any means but I could also just hand them the money! Sorry not trying to sound like a jerk or nothing .

    "Challenge coins have become the number one souvenir collectable for the US military. Almost every unit now has its own coin. Many officers have their own coins to award and provide ‘on the spot’ recognition to his/her team members. From the earliest days of this tradition, the coins were carried to show membership in a unit. Soldiers from as far back as the Korean War would “challenge” comrades by showing their coins. The challenged soldier would have to present his or her coin or “buy a round”. If the soldier challenged had the required coin, the challenger would then be required to buy the round. Little has changed to date. - See more at: https://www.challengecoin.com/about-us#sthash.tY6Vse7m.dpuf"

    In this case just keep the coin on you or in your Tacoma at all times. If you buy extras and feel like giving it out if you see one that you really like them go ahead. I keep a stash of coins and patches in my truck at all times. I give them out and or trade with people all the time. One of my many display cases

    I used to give out Tacomaworld business cards and I'd hand write my name and Southeast Region - Tidewater which is the thread we BS in. I ran out, sent $$ for another batch and got ripped off. Haven't seen any available in a long time. If I could get a chunk of these at a descent price, I'd give them away, but I don't really need one for me.

    If coins were too expensive, maybe poker chips..my part time job is running a non-profit dart league. We made 6 different colored poker chips one year to commemorate our annual large tournament.

    The military accessories sites have them too, though I've seen them cheaper at trophy shops. Simply search for challenge coin display stand and wade through the options.

    84.6%, actually - 16.8% want to snag more than one.

    I think we've demonstrated that there's a demand.
