What is a good "congratulations" gift for an Airman retiring from the Airforce?

My sister is retiring, she is financially stable so she basically has whatever she wants. I am thinking about getting a 10 oz bar of Silver and getting it engraved with something....

Opinions?

Thanks,
Ray

    how about the upcoming 2 coin ASE set from the mint?

    SilverTowne has plenty of rounds and bars for any evenience and I think they engrave them as well.

    You could get her a nice Air Force "Challenge Coin" from one of the military supply sites (you'll have to google as I have forgotten the site). Google Challenge Coin and you will find what you need.

    A bit off topic, but a really well struck , high grade FLYING EAGLE would be my choice.

    May I suggest, that you borrow money from her before everything falls apart!

    The 10 oz. engraved silver bar sounds cool. Wish somebody had given me one back in 1984 when I retired from the A.F.image
