Challenge Coins

Bundeswehr Coins are special challenge coins awarded within the German armed forces to demonstrate affiliation, recognition and special achievements. They are part of a deeply rooted military tradition that has now been adopted by the police, fire brigade and other emergency services. Brothers in Arms continues this tradition and brings it into the civilian world.

Our challenge coins are made of solid, high-quality metal. With a diameter of about 50 mm, they feel heavy and valuable in the hand. We consciously rely on a robust, durable workmanship – exactly matching the values that our community lives by.

Absolutely yes! Our designs are influenced by our experiences in the military, but they are not just for soldiers. They represent a mindset – one of discipline, resilience, camaraderie and a willingness to bring out the best in yourself every day.

Whether you've served, are en route, or just doing your best in the civilian world, if you identify with the message, you belong. Brothers in Arms isn't an exclusive club; it's a statement. If you live the values, if you celebrate the designs, wear them with pride.

Our challenge coins are extremely robust and can be carried in a pocket or purse without any problems. However, to keep them in pristine condition, we recommend storing them in the protective case provided or displaying them in a display case or coin holder together with other coins. This will keep your coins permanently protected from dust, scratches and other damage.

Yes, there are actually various traditions such as the so-called “coin check”. Here it is customary to have your challenge coin handy at all times. If a member of your group calls for a coin check, everyone present must show their coin. Those who can't show a coin will have to buy the next round of drinks and listen to a few funny jokes from their comrades. Of course, this rule does not apply to the Challenge Coins from Brothers in Arms, as these are primarily intended to motivate you. However, if you want, you can set up similar rules among your friends and give the coins an even deeper meaning.

Of course! Many of our customers collect our signature coins as a sign of belonging and as a reminder of special milestones. The high-quality designs give you real collector's items with emotional and sentimental value.

Yes! With every purchase of our military coins, you automatically support our mission to help veterans, especially in mental health care (e.g. PTSD support). This way, you are not only part of a strong community, but also show appreciation for people who have selflessly stood up for others.
