The material selection directly influences both price and quality. Zinc alloy is widely used for its affordability, lightweight nature, and versatility, helping lower production and shipping costs. Brass provides a heavier weight and higher-end appearance, making it ideal for prestigious designs but at a higher price point.

We offer a range of customizable coin sizes to suit your specific needs. While common sizes include 38mm, 42mm, 45mm, and 50mm, we can craft challenge coins in any size or shape to match your unique design.

Challenge Coin Diamond Cut Borders
Adding diamond-cut borders enhances the coin’s look with patterns such as oblique, curve wave, or rope edges, though these increase the price due to the added craftsmanship. For brass coins, diamond cuts reveal the base metal beneath the plating for a stunning two-tone effect. With zinc alloy coins, electroplating occurs after diamond cutting to maintain uniform color and prevent oxidation.
