A few years ago I started a tradition of giving away challenge coins to the people that do Lightning talks at SHHH. These coins were made to represent social capital personified. I took the idea from the geo coin and https://www.geocaching.com/ game, but it organated in the military
Each SHHH a different member designs and produces 15-20 of these coins to be given away. Each coin SHHH is different and unique. You can tell who has been a longer member at VHS by how many coins they have.
I have missed a few SHHH over the past few years, I have ~8 of these coins but these are the ones I could find tonight. Post the pictures of the coins that you got.
