Eleventh District of the Coast Guard As Guardians of the Gateway to the Pacific, District 11 serves, protects and defends the American Public, maritime transportation system and marine environment, through innovation, operational excellence, partnership and teamwork, to ensure a safe, secure and prosperous America. The Eleventh Coast Guard District encompasses the states of California, Arizona, Nevada, and Utah, the coastal and offshore waters out over thousand miles and the offshore waters of Mexico and Central America down to South America.Â Coast Guard operational units are located throughout the state of California, with the District and Pacific Area headquarters located on Coast Guard Island in Alameda, California along the east side of San Francisco Bay. The Coast Guardâ€™s presence on the west coast dates back to 1848, when the Revenue Cutter LAWRENCE was dispatched to San Francisco to maintain maritime order during the chaotic days of the California Gold Rush. Growing from that one ship, the Eleventh District now includes 48 units and it employs over 2,600 active duty, reserve, and civilian employees.Â These resources carry out Search and Rescue, Homeland Security, Law Enforcement, Marine Safety, and Aids to Navigation missions over 3.3 million square miles of water. In addition, over 3500 volunteer Coast Guard Auxiliary members assist in many Coast Guard mission areas, including Boating Safety and Search and Rescue. This coin salutes the service of all those stationed at USCG District 11. Minted in a brass ally, this coin is embued with durable enamel in the bold colors of District 11's emblem. The coin comes packaged in a polybag with a header card.
