MCRD Parris Island Challenge Coin

At the Marine Corps Recruiting Depot in Parris Island in South Carolina, recruits  earn the right to be called a Marine through a rigorous process lasting 12 weeks, culminating in a test of mental and physical endurance known as The Crucible. Commemorate the making of a Marine with this unique gift!

This 1.75″ South Carolina-shaped antique brass challenge coin features the State flag above a 3D Eagle, Globe, and Anchor, and the words “MCRD Parris Island – Making Marines since 1967”, set against a transparent red starbust background. The reverse side contains 3D images of various portions of the obstacle courses set above USMC Devil Dog Mascot.
