Branded coins, made to reflect your vision
We create coins using a die striking process where a die is made for each side of your coin and a metal blank is struck between the dies to transfer your artwork onto your coin. We have lots of options for creating your coin design from adding cut-outs to adding transparent enamel to 3D sculpted logos.
Here’s how our process works:
Design: First, send us your logo or design and then we will create a proof using CAD software. This is where we can add unique features like cut-outs, dual plating or glow-in-the-dark enamel to make your coin stand out.
Die Creation: Once the design is finalized a CNC milling machine creates precise dies for each side, capturing intricate details like 3d elements, sequential numbering, die cut edges and even background textures.
Striking and Casting Options: For coins with simple designs we can use standard die striking or add a hydraulic press for a even a sharper imprint. For more complex designs with fine details or cut-outs we also offer casting. Casting gives us even more detail flexibility and often a better price point for highly customized coins.
Finishing: After striking or casting coins go through finishing steps like polishing, plating and enamel application. Our enamel colors including transparent enamel create bold contrasts against darker finishes and enhance the coin’s details.
What are Custom Coins Made Of?
The metal and finish you choose will determine the look, weight and feel of your coin. We offer many metals, classic ones like antique copper, brass, bronze and more. Each metal has its own look; antique copper is vintage, shiny gold is elegant.
Base Metals
Custom made coins are created from different metal alloys which give each coin its own look and feel. Here are the metals we use: Each metal adds its own style and strength to a coin.
Bronze
Strongest base metal used in coin manufacturing. Good for coins that need durability and classic look.
Brass
Similar to bronze in strength, brass has better detailing capabilities, good for intricate designs. Brass coins are durable and keeps a bright finish.
Zinc
Zinc is versatile and good for coins with small details and cut-outs and 3d. Zinc coins are made through casting process where molten zinc fills a mold.
Plating Options:
- Shiny Finishes: Polished gold, silver, and copper for a bright, reflective look.
- Antique Finishes: A classic, weathered appearance that adds depth to the design.
- Black Plating: A sleek, matte surface that pairs well with vibrant enamel colors, highlighting details against the dark background.
- Dual Plating: Combines finishes like shiny and antique finishes, creating striking contrasts.
