My Coins - B Co Bisons

This coin, though simple in design is a rather neat coin. The center has a bison skull with "4ID" between the eyes on both sides. One side lists the different 4th Infantry Division Headquarters staff sections, which comprise B Co. These sections are G1, G2, G4, and G8 (listed above the skul, between the tips of the horns) and DIV SURG and SAFETY (listed below the skull, on either side of the nose). The other side has the word "BISONS" at the top, between the tips of the horns and "BRAVO COMPANY" at the bottom, on either side of the nose.

Capatin Heather Richards, the Commander of B Co presented this coin to me and to two of my technicians because we had spent over a week running CAT5 cable and installing computers, printers, and phones so that B Co could get up on communications at the beginning of our tour in Iraq.
