I just purchased a SigForum silver coin and I was curious as to when these were available to members. Can anyone share some information on the history of these? Thanks | ||

They had a group buy for these several years ago (5 or 6) that folks pre ordered them. I bought several and gave them to buddies. I also did a Karma a few years ago here.

Where did you find the coin at? “Our actions may be impeded... But there can be no impeding our intentions or our dispositions. Because we can accommodate and adapt. The mind adapts and converts to its own purposes the obstacle to our acting. The impeding to action advances action. What stands in the way becomes the way.” ― Marcus Aurelius | |||

Time flies and the Sigforum challenge coin happened twice. The 2nd challenge coin was in 2017 organized by member ffips. I can't remember when the first challenge coin occurred as the system pruned it, but I had it when lived in Canada 2014 to 2016: There are 3 varieties of Sigforum challenge coins in existence: Ego is the anesthesia that deadens the pain of stupidity DISCLAIMER: These are the author's own personal views and do not represent the views of the author's employer. | |||

The first challenge coins (copper and silver) were from 2015. I dug up my old order, and it shows May of 2015. | |||

I can’t believe it has been ten years! I still have all the copper and silver ones I got. I gave away one to a member who missed out on the purchase. After I posted this, I had to go make sure I knew where they were. Such a good design and yes, they are date stamped 2015.  NRA Benefactor Life Member | |||

I wish I'd bought more at the time. Both silver and copper. SIGforum: For all your needs! Imagine our influence if every gun owner in America was an NRA member! Click the box>>>  | |||

When we did the copper and silver ones, we put a date and "mint mark (A)" to make these as much like real currency as possible. A value wasn't ever assigned because we felt them "priceless." I keep saying "we" because it was a joint effort. I played but a small role in each of the efforts. | |||

Congratulations on your find. I bought a couple when first offered then few a couple of years later, when a member slod some of his. I think I have 3 left. I also have a few of the later painted metal ones. I carry one with me every day. Niech Zyje P-220 Steve | |||

My silver ones were taken from my low rent residence by doper neighbors. I still have the copper ones. I intended to post a WTB ad in the future to replace the silver and, I didn't even know of the painted coins. And, I fully intend to own a Spartan ring as funds allow. | |||

I have Silver and Copper. I take the Silver when I travel overseas and post a picture here. I remember there was a thread before where you post where your Sigforum coin has been. I can't remember the thread title. _______________________ P228 - West German | |||

Nobody is actually carrying a silver or copper challenge coin uncased correct? | |||

I got a copper coin from a member years ago. Usually in mu pocket when I travel, and on rides on the motorcycle The Enemy's gate is down. | |||

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ The one I carry is no longer in a case, I dropped it and broke the case. Without the case, the coin has worn very well, not tarnished. Niech Zyje P-220 Steve | |||

I have two copper coins, used to carry one with me at all times, but I lost it. Put the other in a safe drawer, still in its plastic case, then a few months later found the lost one under a couch. Now, it's in the drawer as well.

I’m looking forward to receiving my silver coin. I would also love to be able to buy a copper coin if anyone has an extra to spare. | |||

The reason I ask is because I knew a man who carried a half dollar in his pocket for roughly 30 years. It was hard to tell that it was a coin. It looked like it went through a rock tumbler. | |||
