For yourconsideration is this SCARCE and beautiful looking, two-sided, COMMEMORATIVE HARRIS COUNTY TEXAS SHERIFF\'S OFFICE \"175th ANNIVERSARY\" CHALLENGE COIN.
The coin was produced for one year only (2012). Inasmuch it is a scarce and hard to come by variety of Sheriff\'s Office challenge coins and has never been circulated. Inasmuch it remains in excellent condition inside of its manufacturer\'s clear vinyl envelope. The coin is made out of a heavy goldcolored base metal and is deeply imprinted and embossed on both sides. The coin has beautiful details and multiple colors that brilliantly highlight the Sheriff\'s current issued badge and a historical perspective of the five different Sheriff\'s Office badges that were worn in the past. The coin measuresapproximately 1.75\" in diameter and is approximately 1/8\" thick.The front side of the coin features a highly polished gold colored deeply embossed Sheriff\'s Office badge atop a brilliant blue colored field surrounded by the words \"HARRIS COUNTY SHERIFF\'S OFFICE\" and \"TEXAS\". Thereverse side of the coin features a detailed depiction of the current Sheriff\'s badge against a brightly polished silver colored field in the center of the coin with smaller images of the previous five past known badges that were worn by the deputies of the Sheriff\'s Office throughout the decades. The five past badges represent periods in the Sheriff\'s Office history beginning in 1836 up through the current badge style which was issued beginning in approximately 1985. Surrounding the aforementioned badges are the words \"PROTECTING HARRIS COUNTY FOR 175 YEARS\" and the years \"1837 - 2012\".
Note, This challenge coin is new old stock. However, as a matter of full disclosure, a very astute er recently contacted me and advised me the letter \"D\" was omitted from the rank of \"DEPUTY\" on one of the small badges located on the reverse of the challenge coin. The subject badge is situated at approximately the 5 o\'clock position on the backside of the coin. Obviously, and as unbelievable as it seems, for the past 10 years this tiny manufacturer\'s error has gone completely undetected since the year 2012 when the coin was produced to commemorate the 175th anniversary. Nevertheless, this challenge still remains a collectible and desirable piece since they are no longer made.
