Every item in my shop is vintage - except this! I present to you my own creation: the Good Idea Fairy Coin!! It's the exact opposite of a military challenge or motivational coin. Demotivate those who truly deserve it or use it to coin your own "leadership". You can't go wrong with a Good Idea Fairy coin!
TREMENDOUS POPULAR DEMAND!!! OVER 2000 SOLD! These may be one of the most sought-after coins ever made available.
Made of a high-quality metal alloy with an antique gold, bronze-like finish, each coin is 1.08 oz. in weight, has a 1.5 inch (37mm) diameter, and is 3mm thick. With each coin, I include a clear PVC protector sleeve.
The history of challenge coins:
Challenge coins are small medallions (usually military, but may also be found among fire and police professionals), bearing an organization’s insignia or emblem and carried by the organization’s members. Traditionally, they're given to prove membership when challenged as well as to boost morale. They are also highly collectible and popular among many who serve or have formerly served in the Armed Forces. Challenge coins are typically presented by unit commanders in recognition of special achievements by members of the unit. They may also be exchanged in recognition of visits to an organization or location.
But enough about motivation. What about those who may worthy of a little recognition for achievement of a different kind, likely influenced by the creature known as the Good Idea Fairy?
The history of the Good Idea Fairy:
The Good Idea Fairy is an evil (or perhaps just mischievous) mythical creature that whispers advice and ideas into the ears of leadership that cause hundreds of unnecessary changes and countless wasted hours. But the Good Idea Fairy doesn't just whisper to military leaders. It also whispers into the ears of any manager in any field or line of work. The pointy-haired boss of Scott Adams' 'Dilbert', for example, seems to be completely possessed by the Good Idea Fairy. Or maybe the those public officials from that Indiana town in 'Parks and Recreation'. Perhaps even the head of 'The Office'. Sadly, this creature doesn't just target managers; the Good Idea Fairy doesn't discriminate and will talk to anyone who fails to see the warning signs and will listen to the absurd.
You've probably encountered people who have succumbed to the Good Idea Fairy. You know who I'm talking about. So why not acknowledge his or her "brilliance"?
Perfect for gift-giving to bosses, siblings, commanding officers, executive officers, big brass, moms, dads, sons, daughters, co-workers, managers, professors, college students, grads, men, women, elected officials, mayors, governors, presidents, vice presidents, CEOs, anyone and everyone whomever is deserving of recognition.
