Rough Idea
Send the sketch, notes, mascot idea, seal, logo, or reference image. Production-grade art can come later.
Challenge Coin Options
Options are where a coin can get better or more expensive in a hurry. The right upgrades make the design feel custom; the wrong ones just make the proof harder to approve.
Start the quoteFrom sketch to proof to finished coin
Send the sketch, notes, mascot idea, seal, logo, or reference image. Production-grade art can come later.
The idea becomes front art, back art, edge detail, size, finish, enamel, relief, and production notes.
After proof approval, the coin moves through mold, plating, enamel, polish, packing, and shipment.

Best-fit projects
Two-sided challenge coins, 3D molded coins, cut-out coins, color filled coins, die struck coins, bottle opener coins, spinner coins, antique finishes, rush coins, and custom packaging all change proofing and production.
The goal is not to add every option. The goal is to pick the specs that make the final coin feel more intentional without turning the design into a tiny metal committee meeting.
Popular coin directions
Mascots, faces, buildings, seals, and dimensional objects with more relief.
Bottle opener and spinner coins with thickness and hardware review.
Antique, two-tone, black nickel, special edges, and custom packaging.
Quote planning
2D relief is crisp for logos and text. 3D relief works for faces, mascots, buildings, animals, and sculpted emblems.
Bottle opener coins and spinner coins need extra review for thickness, hardware, usability, and safety.
Rope, reeded, cross-cut, spur, sunburst, cut-out, and custom silhouettes can change the whole feel.
Packaging and rush timing should be quoted before approval so the final price does not sneak up wearing a little hat.
Style guide
Raised metal lines with recessed color. Strong for logos, seals, text rings, and colorful service coins.
Sculpted depth for mascots, faces, landmarks, badges, and emblems that should feel dimensional.
Useful when artwork has gradients, tiny details, photos, or color transitions that do not translate cleanly to enamel.
Classic raised and recessed metal with no color fill. Sharp for awards, formal logos, and antique finishes.
How the quote gets smarter
Complex options need cleaner artwork and a slower look before production.
Rush can work, but only after art, quantity, and proof timing are checked.
Pouches, acrylic boxes, wood boxes, bags, and display cases can be included.
Artwork, timing, and production
Bottle openers, spinners, cut-outs, edge engraving, sequential numbering, specialty fills, and premium packaging need enough lead time for proofing and supplier confirmation.
How ordering works
Send the add-on idea, edge text, numbering format, packaging goal, or reference image.
Size, quantity, finish, edge, depth, sides, packaging, deadline, and budget range.
The proof catches layout, spelling, contrast, and production issues before metal gets involved.
Once the proof and firm quote are approved, the order moves into mold, plating, enamel, and packing.
Coins ship to the final address, and clean specs make future reorders much less dramatic.
Questions before quoting
Use 3D when the artwork needs sculpted depth, such as faces, mascots, animals, landmarks, or dimensional seals.
Usually, yes. They require review for thickness, function, material, and final shape.
Yes. Cut-outs and custom shapes can be quoted when the design supports it.
They can. Special edges, unusual shapes, and rush timelines should be reviewed before the order is approved.
