Why custom Medals?:

  • Who cares about recognition? EVERYBODY!!!!
  • Medals are an ideal way to ensure that special accomplishments and efforts of those truly trying to make a difference, or competing beyond their comfort level, do not go unrecognized.
  • With so much to choose from in our line – there’s something for every recognition event, or corporate award program, out there – and we can accommodate any budget you can throw at us!
  • Whether it’s custom recognition medals for the military branches – Army, Air Force, Navy, Marines and Coast Guard – OR, such sporting events involving Baseball, Basketball, Bowling, Boxing, Cheerleading, Dance, Football, Golf, Gymnastics, Hockey, Karate, Soccer, Softball, Swimming, Tennis, Track & Field, Volleyball, or Wrestling - we’ve got you covered – no matter what – it’s ALL custom to your specs!
  • Maybe you have Corporate medals in mind – well, we’ve that covered as well. How about some medals for Best Salesperson, Highest Sales Achievements, Customer Service, Years of Service, Customer Recognition , Award of Gratitude, Achievement Award levels – Platinum / Gold / Silver / Bronze, Boss of the Year, Employee of the Year, Employee of the Month, Distinguished Service, Outstanding Service, Outstanding Performance, Leader Award, Merit Award, Million Dollar Club, Most Valuable Player, Outstanding Leadership Award, Outstanding Salesmanship, Presidents Award, Retirement Award, Recognition of Excellence, Safety Award, Sales Leader Award, Top Sales Award, Top 10 Distributor, Number one distributor, Best Franchise - if they go to the effort of accomplishing it – we’ll help you reward it!
  • Miscellaneous Medal categories: When we say custom, that’s exactly what we mean. You can create “any” category or event you have in mind – for instance, how about Founders Award, In Loving Memory of, In Memory of, In Appreciation of, Forever in our Hearts, In Recognition of 25 Years, In Grateful Recognition of, Outstanding Student Award, Tournament Champion, Lamp of Knowledge, Math, Music, Science, Religious Medals, Victory medals, Participant medals – it’s all good!

How much does it cost?

  • The more you buy, the lower the cost. Every medal we make is cast out of molten metal, or struck with a steel die. Each individual piece must be painstakingly hand polished and finished to accommodate your chosen end product – adding a dash of blackening for that aged antique appearance – or the addition of vibrant pantone colors to meet your corporate or organizations demands.
  • While we can do low quantities, realistically for smaller sized pieces, you should be looking to produce at least 100 pieces - in some processes we may be able to produce as little as 50.
  • We can also do orders well into the multiple thousands of pieces per order – this is where you’ll really pull that unit cost down to a very attractive figure. Big or small, we can make them.
  • If you 'have to have it', we will gladly make just one, but if you can get some friends together and order even a few, the price drops dramatically.
  • Using our Design Vault to help get started, can also save you some money.

How to get custom medals?:

  • Easy - give us a call, send us an email, fill out our info form, send along a drawing in email, or upload a file for us to look at
  • We've been around, we've seen lots of designs - if you can think it up, we can probably handle it without any problems.
  • Sizing - a typical medal is perhaps around 1.5 to 2" in diameter – but can be ANY shape – it’s custom! • Color - let us know what you want and we can get it done.
  • For an additional charge, we can also provide a 'sculpted 3D design'.

How long does it take?

  • Depends on the quantity of your order, they can usually be made in an average of 3-4 weeks - rush service is available for an extra charge.
  • If you would prefer something like ‘die struck’ or ‘die-cast’, which offers more precision in sizing and detail, the timing might be a bit longer – usually 5 to 7 weeks. Again, tell us your schedule and we’ll likely be able to accommodate you.

What types of Medal finishes are available?

  • Our standard and most popular medals are the Antique Gold, Silver, and Copper – no matter what the process chosen. Very close behind are the Bright Gold, Silver, Copper finishes – they’re more popular with the groups looking to fully reproduce logos and designs in full pantone colors.
  • And don’t forget about Pewter – these are normally a very nice consideration if you want something a little more prestigious than the base metal antique medal, but don’t want to spring for the die-struck or die-cast, or you don’t have the volume of order to qualify. Good value and quality item in this fine pewter – and naturally, like all of our lines – ‘lead-free’
