🧊 ARCTIC CIRCLE BLUE NOSE VETERAN CHALLENGE COIN – OFFICER EDITION 🐻‍❄️⚓

Story & tradition ❄️
Crossing into the Arctic is more than a line on the chart. For the sailors who stood watch in freezing wind, chipped ice from the decks, and watched the Northern Lights flicker above a black sea, earning the Blue Nose is a badge of honor. This challenge coin pays tribute to that rite of passage and the cold-water legends that came with it.

Design details ⭐
• Distinguished polar bear in a naval officer’s cap and coat, complete with the classic “blue nose,” capturing both humor and hard-earned Arctic credibility.

• Arctic mountains, dark water, and aurora-lit sky in the background, setting the scene at 66° 34' N where the stories were made.

• Bold ARCTIC CIRCLE and BLUE NOSE VETERAN text around the rim with star accents, giving the coin a formal, medal-style presence.

• Rich, high-contrast colors and detailed relief that stand out in any rack, shadow box, or desktop display.

For veterans & collectors ⚓
Ideal for sailors and coasties who have actually crossed the Circle, or for anyone who appreciates Navy and Coast Guard traditions, this coin is a perfect way to mark a rare experience few ever earn.

Display it beside your deployment coins, gift it to a shipmate who froze on the line with you, or keep it as a daily reminder that you’ve gone farther north, in harsher seas, than most will ever know.
