The Lion Troop Challenge Coin

The 2nd Squadron of the 15th Cavalry Regiment also called ‘The Lion Troop’ or ‘Lion Squadron, is a cavalry regiment of the United States Army. It was one of the Expansion Units originally established for the Spanish–American War but has been a general workhorse unit ever since.

The Lion Troop is a high-performing, disciplined, competent, and competitive team committed to training the future generation of the United States Cavalry to a high standard and building ready Army Families. The cavalry scout is responsible for being the eyes and ears of the commander during battle. They engage the enemy in the field, track and report their activity, and direct the employment of weapon systems to their locations.

We had the honor to design and manufacture a very cool custom challenge coin for the lions. Uniquely shaped like a statue of a lion, this coin was crafted like an art sculpture, with details such as sculpted relief and inscriptions. They requested their mascot, the lion, sculpted on the front of the coin, while on the back are decorated with small engravings such as their insignia and their motto.

We made sure that the design was done perfectly with our computerized drawing method so our state-of-the-art equipment could execute each of the details flawlessly. The result was a stunning custom coin, a perfect blend of natural finish and painted colors.
