13 Italian Knights defeated 13 french knights in a tournament in southern Italy. The deal was, the French would leave the area (they were in the middle of a war effort) if they lost. Supposedly, the challenge was made after a French knight insulted the Italian with claims of cowardice, etc. The Italian defeated the French on February 13th and the French left the area. The challenge took place in Puglia.
Modern day challenge coins originated in World War One when a wealthy airman had coins made for his unit to create team spirit. After being shot down and captured he escaped with only the coin in a leather pouch around his neck. He donned clothes he found in a barn, but was recaptured by resistance troops who were about to kill him when he showed his coin as proof he was an American.
