Can someone tell me what this is? How old is it? Is it original? Does it have any value?
I have it for about 7 years now I think, but never really knew what it was.

It's a challenger coin. Doesn't look that old.
It's a "coin." These are given by senior officers to anyone they think deserves it. The man who gave it is easily researched online.
And reading the other forum where you posted, I doubt very much if he would want it back, it was not issued to him, but was one of several he would have had to give away.
Nice item.

I think there are people who would appreciate it more. It doesn't really mean anything to me and it would be better to pass it onto a collector.
They vary in value. Usually depends on how detailed and colorful it is, and what it represents. I have one from the presidential helicopter squadron communications unit. Luckily I knew a marine major in that unit so it was free. I have a few others from varying organizations and they cost around $20 I think. Been a while since I bought one. I'd say yours might be worth around $40-50, based on the detailed design. I don't think there is a huge collector market for these coins.
