I was looking for a challenge coin and came across this coin. you would think that they would at least make sure that when they mint these things they would make sure they are as accurate as could be. I contacted the company and i guess they had to scrap all the coins already made. Mind you these coins are gold plated so i wonder how much money they lost. lets see how many people can catch the mistake. lol

This coin would've been simple to proof. (Looks like nobody bothered.) It's only scrap if it isn't right.

you people have no sympathy.

The guy that did is just happened to stutter a bit.

LOL

That's what you get when non-vets try to make bucks off those that have served.

Talking about images, today when I was visiting the Community Veterans Memorial park.
I happen to look at the WW II in the Pacific.
In the granite murals there's three images of the war in the pacific.
One is the attack of Pearl Harbor, of the other two, one shows Marines on the beach just below Mount Surbachi and the other one is the second Flag raising but most famous on top of Mount Surbachi or the one that is the model for the Marine Memorial.
I been there many times, it a good way for me to get my exercise on a saturday.
Today, was a nice day, temperatures in the 50's and there was no one there, when I first got there.
One doesn't glorify war, but we remember those that died or were wounded fighting in all our wars.
Today, my thoughts were of those four Americans killed and mulated in Iraq.
Remembering the words on a paver in that park;
"The price of Freedom, is buried in the ground."
How true are those words now.
We gone over a thousand Americans killed in Iraq.
When will it ever end?
