Armed Forces Japan

A Symbol of Strength, Honor, and Allied Unity, Inspired by the Samurai Spirit.

The Armed Forces Japan coin is a tribute that symbolizes the strength, resilience, and honor shared by both nations. The timeless warrior spirit of Japan’s samurai, revered for their discipline, courage, and loyalty, serve as the perfect emblem of the qualities that define the alliance between the U.S. Armed Forces and Japan. Just as the samurai fought for their country with unwavering commitment, so too do the men and women in uniform who defend peace and stability in the Pacific region.
