Made for your occasion

Coin options that affect more than the price.

Choose two-sided challenge coins for a longer message, 3D molded coins for sculpted detail, or cut-out coins for a distinctive shape. Color filled coins, die struck coins, bottle opener coins, spinner coins, antique finishes, rush options, and custom packaging offer more ways to make the piece yours.

You do not have to choose everything up front. Share the look you like and how the coin will be used, and we can explain which options add value and how they affect the price.

2D versus 3D

2D relief is crisp for logos and text. 3D relief works for faces, mascots, buildings, animals, and sculpted emblems.

Functional coin features

Ask about the thickness and moving parts when choosing a bottle opener or spinner coin, so the finished piece works as you expect.

Edges and shapes

Rope, reeded, cross-cut, spur, sunburst, cut-out, and custom silhouettes can change the whole feel.

Packaging and rush

Include your packaging and delivery needs in the quote so you can see the full cost before you commit.

Your questions, answered

Answers about challenge coin options and finishes.

When should I choose 3D relief?

Use 3D when the artwork needs sculpted depth, such as faces, mascots, animals, landmarks, or dimensional seals.

Are bottle opener coins more expensive?

Usually, yes. They require review for thickness, function, material, and final shape.

Can a coin be cut out around the artwork?

Yes. Cut-outs and custom shapes can be quoted when the design supports it.

Do special edges affect lead time?

They can. Special edges, unusual shapes, and rush timelines should be reviewed before the order is approved.
