BUMP!
Here are six coins that I have found so far that I just HAVE to have for my collection. Anyone having any of these and would be willing to part with them, let me know how much you want. Of course I will pay for shipping in addition.
EDITED to add: Below each coin is a description of what makes it different.
If you have other, unusual Ranger coins, let me know about those too.
Thanks for your help.

We'll need to see a photo of it first. Preferably with you holding it up at least chest height for size comparison.Nina wrote: ↑October 17th, 2017, 3:10 pm I have this coin..I am wondering is it something that you would be interested in..plz let me know thanks ..I tried to download pic 4 times wouldn't let me do it..but Isa 1988 Republic of Korea LRSD Ranger Airborne 2D ID 2D BDE on the back it's says Long range Surveillance detachment
