Richmond County (NY) District Attorney Investigation Bureau Challenge Coin
“Cross-examined by the clever attorney …”

In 2016, the Investigation Bureau of the Richmond County (New York) District Attorney’s office issued a Sherlockian themed challenge coin. Richmond County is all of the borough of Staten Island, so it is a part of New York City.
