Anyone have any good tools that they use for tracking down values for various military challenge coins? I have tried eBay comps, but it is hard since some don't show up and others have so many variations that you can't really pin it down. The reason that I ask is that I picked up a box lot of misc stuff at auction a couple weeks ago and there were a couple dozen challenges coins in it. They range from the ones that you can buy in a gift shop such as the one for the Vietnam wall and an Air Force on that reads on the back, "I Love My Airman," to ones that carry larger importance such as the one that was presented by General Peter Pace when he was the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

It is a real niche in a niche market for challenge coins. They are highly personal, so valuable to those that carried them, and a mystery to many. Your best bet is to divide them into service lots (Army - Air force - Marines - Navy), and advertise them on Ebay or Service related sites. Good Luck!
 

I love my airman is less than $10. Peter Pace has one on eBay for $40 atm.
 

maybe donate to a VFW with a permission to dig the property??
