80th Anniversary Pearl Harbor Challenge Coin

Yesterday, I drove artist Richard Yazzie to his medical appointment at the Veterans hospital in Albuquerque.

Since we got there early, we browsed around the hospital's gift shops. 

Most items were veteran-specific (Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, Coast Guard, etc.). But I did come across some challenge coins. As in other items, most challenge coins were veteran-specific.

However, I did find one challenge coin that commemorated the 80th Anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack on December 7, 1941. 

Here are both sides of the coin:



Since I visited Pearl Harbor in 2016 and the coin was only $20.00, I decided to get it.
