Our mission here at (SS) Challenge Coins is to provide those who have served in the United States Navy and their families with quality, American made coins to commemorate the decommissioned and active subs of the submarine service. (SS) Challenge Coins is owned and operated by Navy brat, Shelly Saxton, who has made a business out of something close to her heart. What began as a gift to her father, RMCS(SS) Curtiss Gardner USN (Ret.), blossomed into a company that allows her to give back to those who have served our country.
If you don't see your boat here please contact us at SubmarineCoins@gmail.com
. We have many boats that are currently in our request file and we will gladly add yours to our list and will let you know when we get to her.

Do you make custom coins?
Yes, we have made many custom coins for the US Navy, USSVI bases, conventions, boat reunions, museums, fire departments, a few schools, family reunions and even a wedding.
If you're looking for a highly detailed coin of excellent quality, then you've come to the right place. All our custom coins are die cast and not die struck allowing for much greater detail and 3-D effect in your custom coins. You will not find a better made custom coin anywhere. Shipping and handling will vary depending on the quantity ordered.
