I recently got a coin from the US Navy's newest, and most expensive warship to date, the USS George H. W. Bush (CVN-77). I was on board for her maiden voyage (Builders Trials) and again during the Navy Acceptance Trials last week. She still has a lot of work to be done before deployment. During the builders trials, our aircraft got some great "photo passes" after our testing was complete but we have to wait for them to be cleared before I can post them 
I really like this ship coin, I get a coin and ship patch from every ship I go on. A cool tidbit, I was recently on the USS Boxer for a test effort, you might have heard about it in the news recently around the Horn of Africa.
New CVN-77 Coin:






















And from my Air Force days, when I used to fly as a test engineer in the C-17.
