From the very first call to break free from tyranny, Americans have risen to defend our nation. In 1775, trailblazing women like Deborah Sampson and Molly Pitcher joined the fight, beginning a proud tradition of service and sacrifice that continues to this day. Over 3 million women have served our country in the United States Armed Forces, standing shoulder to shoulder with their fellow citizens. Now, in honor of all our veteran heroes and the 250th anniversary of America's independence, we are proud to present a superb collection of U.S. veterans challenge coins, each made in the U.S.A. Introducing the 250th Anniversary Made in America Challenge Coin Collection, available exclusively from The Bradford Exchange Mint. This collection begins with Issue One, Women Veterans. Soon, your collection will continue with Issue Two, WWII Veterans and FREE Deluxe Display Box, followed by Issue Three, Gulf War Veterans and additional collectible challenge coins, each a separate issue to follow.‡

Each coin in this remarkable collection is expertly minted at the nation's oldest private mint, struck in golden bronze and brought to life with vivid tri-chromatic artwork. Upholding the honorable tradition of military challenge coins, these tributes serve as enduring reminders of fellowship, valor and shared commitment to freedom. The front of each coin showcases compelling sculpted imagery of veterans from every branch and era - including women veterans on Issue One - while the back features a sculpted 250th anniversary design with a heraldic eagle, the bold numeral "250", and the words "FREEDOM", "Since 1776", and "PROUDLY MADE IN THE U.S.A." Proof quality coining dies have created polished, mirror-like fields and raised, frosted imagery on both sides. Every coin is grandly sized at 2 inches in diameter and preserved in Proof condition within a crystal-clear capsule. Plus, arriving as Issue Two, the FREE deluxe display box offers the perfect way to store and showcase your collection - and a handsome presentation for giving it as an unforgettable military gift. We are proud financial supporters of the families of those taken prisoners of war or remain missing in action and the loved ones of those who have made immense sacrifices in service to our country thanks to customers who encourage us to do so. Intense demand is expected, so don't wait. Order now!
