50 PCS Wholesale Lot - US Navy Chief Petty Officer Challenge Coin Ship's Wheel Ask The Chief Bronze

50-Piece Wholesale Lot: Navy Chief Petty Officer Ship's Wheel Challenge Coins

Struck as a ship's wheel, spokes and all, with open cutouts between them and a braided rope border circling the rim in deep navy enamel. It's the kind of shape that makes people pick it up before they've even read it.

The front reads TESTED • SELECTED • INITIATED across the top and UNITED STATES NAVY below, wrapped around a center medallion holding the CPO combination cap and khaki garrison cover against a colorized Stars and Stripes, fouled anchors set at each side.

The back carries CHIEF PETTY OFFICER and THROUGH LEADERSHIP around a chain-linked center with three USN fouled anchors, ASK THE CHIEF, and the date the rate was established: APRIL 1ST, 1893. Antique bronze relief with enamel color sunk into the recesses, and enough heft to feel like a pinning gift should.

Chief pinning ceremonies, initiations, retirements, and reunions. Every Chief knows what this one means.
