Well...........I have to say I am honored to be a recipient of the coin....It really does mean alot to me guys!! I still am unsure why in my own mind but we will digress on that issue as someone(jwirecom109) gave me their reason.

I thank GOC for everything they do for this community and hope that I can remain a part of this awesome group, community and hobby for many years to come!!

and here is to post number 10!! lolol

I'm not certain I understand the idea of the coins. Could you define 'drawing' the coin better for me?

The challenge, which can be made at any time, begins with the challenger drawing his/her coin, and slapping or placing the coin on the table or bar. In noisy environments, continuously rapping the challenge coin on a surface may initiate the challenge. (Accidentally dropping a challenge coin is considered to be a deliberate challenge to all present.) Everyone being challenged must immediately produce the coin for their organization and anyone failing to do so must buy a round of drinks for the challenger and everyone else who has their challenge coin. However, should everyone challenged be able to produce their coin, the challenger must buy a round of drinks for the group.-wikipedia-

'drawing' means to produce the coin from your person.

Awwww... I figured drawing involved an etch a sketch :(

Its popular in the military. Normally would get coined once you completed basic and in your unit. IE presenter would have a coin in his hand and give you a hand shake. Welcoming you to the group.

They can also be used as a thank you gift.

I though it was a fast draw thing, like gunfighters from the wild west, but throwing the coins at each other like throwing stars. If they don't have razor sharp edges I'm losing interest.
