Challenge Coins Design Ideas To Help You Create Unique Products

One of our most popular products is our custom challenge coins.

Clients use them for awards and tokens, as collectables, and to commemorate events and achievements.

And while simple and traditional coin designs can look stunning, we offer a bunch of different features and options so you can make coins different from anything else out there.

Check out these ideas you can incorporate into your next coin design to really capture the eye.

Use Detail On The Coin's Edges

If you want your challenge coins to resemble actual currency, you can add a "milled edge" (yep, we had to Google that) to your products. The grooves around the sides give them a tactile feel and an aesthetical quality that'll give you an edge (you see what we did there?) over your competitors.

Add Some Colour To Your Coin Design

While single-plated coins look stunning, you can add a splash of colour (or as much colour as you want) to your coins to enhance your design and make it pop. Whether it's just a hint of blue, multiple colours, or an all-out block colour design, we can do whatever you want.

Try a Different Coin Shape

Not all the coins we make are round; in fact, much like some coins from ancient civilisations, we make challenge coins in all kinds of shapes. Indeed, we don't restrict you to only geometric shapes; we can stamp out any design your heart desires.

Coin Size Doesn't Matter

If you're looking for large coins for your latest project, we're your people. We're yet to fail any challenge (heh) our clients have set us when creating custom coins. This absolute behemoth weighed in at a hefty 10kg and was a one-off for a top-secret organisation.

We never did find out what it was for.

Good Coins Come In Small Sizes

Not everyone wants to create the biggest coin they've ever seen. Moreover, we often create teeny tiny coins (we're not size-shaming here) for businesses to use as tokens and keepsakes without spending a fortune. We've added a pen to the pic for size context.

Variations to Create Coin Collections

We offer a FREE variations service that allows our clients to create multiple versions of the same design using different platings on your coins. These Mandalorian coins look striking in antique silver, antique gold, and nickel (but we have way more options than that).

Coin Display Boxes For Awards & Recognition

Are you giving your coins to reward hard-working employees or courageous members of your unit? Will they be used to commemorate events or as keepsakes from something truly memorable? Choose our display boxes to go along with your coins to kick the aesthetic up a notch.

Make Your Coin Designs Stand Out ... Literally

We can use manufacturing techniques to give your products a 3D appearance that looks spectacular (in our humble opinion) and gives the coins a wonderfully tactile nature which feels great in the hand.

Coin Cut-Outs For Unique Products

It's not just the outer edges that we can alter to affect your coin's appearance; we can cut out some inner sections of your product to give it a completely distinctive look. The coins pictured here used a simple and central circular cut-out, but we can do *almost* any cut-out you'd like.

How We Can Help You Design Your Custom Coins

If any of these ideas have sparked some creativity inside your beautiful brain, we can help you bring them to life.

We offer a FREE design service that lets our clients create professional quality products without having any design skills of their own.
