![]() ![]() Dozens of unofficial “challenge” coins sold on eBay portray an agent on horseback accosting asylum seeker Mirard Joseph and wielding the reins like a whip - a shocking scene first captured by photographer Paul Ratje in Del Rio, Texas, last September.Ī sculpted relief of Ratje’s photo appears on the obverse of the coin above the words “Honor Will Always Be First.” On the reverse, the phrase “Reining It In Since May 18, 1924” references the founding of US Customs & Border Protection (CBP), accompanied by “Yesterday’s Border Is Not Today’s Border.” Along the edge, an ominous inscription warns: “You Will Be Returned.” CBP’s Office of Professional Responsibility has since opened an investigation into whether the creation and distribution of the coins can be traced to Border Patrol agents.
