Quality and Symbolism: The Core Principles of Custom Challenge Coins

When it comes to challenge coins, two foundational principles guide us: quality and symbolism. Each coin is meticulously crafted to meet the highest standards of quality, ensuring a durable and visually stunning end product. But beyond the physical attributes, our coins are infused with deep symbolic meaning. Whether commemorating a special event, honoring an individual, or representing an organization's ethos, the symbolism captured in each coin design is as significant as the quality of the coin itself. These dual principles of quality and symbolism make our custom made coins more than just tokens; they are lasting emblems of value and significance.

Difference Between Die Struck and Die Cast Challenge Coin?

Die struck coins have the designs transferred to a front & back mold, the raw brass being struck by each mold with enough force to transfer both the raised & recessed areas of the design into the brass. Die Cast molds are fit together and molten zinc metal is injected into the die to create the coin blank. You can also read our article in our resources section here!
