I have a orginal Airborne Creed Card that was issued out of the 1st Airborne Jump Class to go thru Ft. Benning, Ga. It has the gold inlayed St. Micheal picture on one side and the prayer on the other. There was only 100 printed. The only other one I have seen is a the Ft. Benning museum. I have been trying to find out for years what it is worth. can anybody else help?

Something like that has no intrinsic value. It is sole decision between you and the person who wants to buy it. You would need to have proof of authenticity to get top dollar. With modern techniques, it is so easy to reproduce such things.
I have several Vietnam cards and such. I just simply put them in a frame and hang them on my wall.
Sorry to be the bearer of sad news.

Its worth whatever you can get for it.

No problem or bad news. I was just wondering? I means more to me than any amount of money. It was given to me by a old Ranger from WW11. He said there were 100 of these cards made one for each troop that went thru the 1st Airborne School at Ft. Benning. Only 35 graduated from that class so they gave the rest out to the graduates. He asked me if I had my Ranger Creed card and I gave it to him and that is what he gave me in return. Ft. Benning Infantry Museum has been wanting me to donate it to them for display. But it really mean a whole hell of a lot to me. Just wondering was all. I will pass it on to my kids along with all my other stuff. Thanks again.

I'm not a Ranger. My opinion, for what it's worth, some things are priceless... and should not be sold.

This is priceless to me just was looking for somebody for more info than I was given. You kids have forbidden me from selling it. I have held on to this since I received it in 1983. It has traveled all over the world and is probably one of the few items I own that was not lost or stolen in transit.
