5th Special Forces Group Challenge Coin - 25th Anniversary 1961-1986
⭐ KEY FEATURES
• 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) “Special Forces” 25 Year Anniversary challenge coin (1961–1986)
• Serialized edge coin — #0463
• “DE OPPRESSO LIBER” reverse with beret/weapons motif and raised relief detail
📌 DESCRIPTION
This vintage-style 5th Special Forces Group (Airborne) anniversary challenge coin commemorates the unit’s 25-year mark and is clearly dated 1961–1986 on the face. The obverse features a Special Forces soldier figure with “SPECIAL FORCES” and “(AIRBORNE) GROUP.”
The reverse displays the SF motto “DE OPPRESSO LIBER” with a beret-and-weapons centerpiece, making this a strong, historically themed piece for serious SOF-focused collections—especially with the added premium touch of serial number #0463.
