Description: This auction is for a AUTHENTIC #065 3rd 3d Infantry Regiment The Old Guard TOG President Escort Challenge Coin The 3rd United States Infantry Regiment is a regiment of the United States Army. It currently has three active battalions, and is readily identified by its nickname, "The Old Guard," as well as "Escort to the President". The regimental motto is Noli Me Tangere (from Latin: – "Touch me Not"). The regiment is a major unit of the Military District of Washington (MDW).The regiment is the oldest active duty regiment in the US Army, having been first organized as the First American Regiment in 1784.The Old Guard is also home to the Tomb Guard of the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, the Presidential Salute Battery, the Army Fife and Drum Corps, the US Army Caisson Unit, the Army Drill Team, and conducts all the Army and Joint Service funerals in Arlington National Cemetery.I’m thinning out my Challenge Coin collection and need to get rid of most of my coins. There will be no Second Chance Offers as this is the only one that I have. I drastically reduce shipping with each auction you win within the same order!!!Let me know if you have any questions.This coin is 100% AUTHENTIC, it is NOT a reproduction or commemorative coin. Nor is it a Chinese knock-off done by an overstamp (the process of taking an authentic coin and stamping it wax to build a mold to make knock-offs. You can generally tell these coins by their lack of detail, shallow relief, poor epoxy and paint, and overall "something is not-quite-rightness") I have served in both the Army and Air Force, in the Pentagon for senior military leaders, at the Old Guard, the Army's Escort to the President, and for numerous units all over the world. I know coins, know what they mean both as professional mementos and collectibles. I'm not by any means the fore most authority, but I've owned literally thousands of coins in my collection, and will do what I can to provide you with the highest quality product and information. Best Regards! I do try to incorporate recycled shipping materials into my orders mailers, boxes, coin sleeves, bubble wrap if necessary, etc. I do this to keep my shipping cost down and in doing so, pass those savings on to you.Please support your local VFWThank you for your consideration
