For clarification, this appears to be a cryptography-challenge coin, not a cryptography challenge-coin.

To elaborate, a challenge-coin would be awarded for achievement or entry into a prestigious group. The coin is usually decorative but contains no challenges in itself.

In this case, the coin contains challenges, and anyone can purchase it - rather than it being awarded.
