In Alma, chapters 56 and 57, we read the story of the 2,000 young soldiers of the people of Ammon who volunteered to fight in the great war between the Nephites and the Lamanites. This is the Army of Helaman. Theirs is a story of faith and courage. With no previous experience, but with great faith, they went to war and fought with “miraculous strength” under the leadership of Helaman. They faced the Lamanites in many battles, but not one of them was killed.

The years ahead will be full of opportunity and challenge that will test us every bit as much as the army of Helaman. The only sure power is to be as the army of Helaman and trust in God. The Helaman coin is carried as a physical reminder to be faithful and valiant as we move forward in our daily battles for truth and right. These challenge coins have great personal value to both men and women of every age. 

Other symbolic design elements are also used to encourage thoughtful pondering.
