Bespoke Challenge Coins • UK & Worldwide Delivery

Custom Challenge Coins for Units, Teams & Organisations.

Design bespoke custom challenge coins for military units, police and law enforcement teams, clubs, events and organisations. From a rough idea or existing badge through to finished artwork and production, we keep pricing, proofing and deadlines clear from the start.

Organising a challenge coin can mean more than choosing a design. You may have people to get on board, quantities and budget to agree, details to approve and a date that is not moving. Bring what you have, and we will help turn it into a coin you will be proud to put your unit, team or organisation name on.

With Custom Calibers, you get a free quote and artwork proof, a straightforward approval process and a confirmed production plan. If we approve your project deadline, we guarantee to meet it or your money back.

“We ordered a batch of challenge coins for our unit and were working to a very tight deadline. The team were brilliant throughout the whole process and made sure everything stayed on track from the initial design through to final production. They delivered exactly when promised, which was a huge relief, but what impressed us most was the quality of the finished coins. The detail was excellent, the finish looked incredibly professional and the coins felt far more substantial than we were expecting. Everyone who received one commented on how good they looked, and they were a real success on the day.”

““An outstanding experience from start to finish. We placed an order for a batch of custom challenge coins for our military unit with a very tight deadline, and the team went above and beyond to make sure everything was completed and delivered on time. Communication throughout the design and production process was excellent, and they made the whole approval process straightforward despite the limited timeframe. When the coins arrived, the quality genuinely exceeded our expectations. The detail, weight, finish and overall presentation were exceptional — even better than we had hoped for from the original artwork. Meeting our deadline was critical, and they delivered exactly when promised without compromising on quality. The finished coins went down incredibly well with the unit.”

We had a pretty tight deadline for a unit event and I was a little concerned about getting everything approved, produced and delivered in time, but they managed it without any issues. The coins arrived on time and the quality was spot on — great weight, sharp detail and a really nice finish. Everyone was impressed with them. Would definitely use them again.”

“Really impressed with how our challenge coins turned out. The design team took our initial ideas and turned them into something that looked far better than we had imagined, while still keeping all the important unit details intact. The finished coins have a great weight to them, the metalwork and colours are sharp, and they look extremely professional. A great result from start to finish."

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything You Need to Know Before Ordering

From artwork and minimum quantities to military and police projects, finishes, proofing, worldwide delivery and reorders, here are the answers to the questions customers most commonly have before starting a custom challenge coin project.

I don’t have professional design files or artwork—can I still order custom coins?

Yes, absolutely. You don’t need to be a graphic designer or have vector files to get started. Whether you have an official vector badge, a rough hand-drawn sketch, or simply a concept in mind, our design team will translate your idea into a full-color digital artwork proof—100% free with no obligation to buy.

What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom challenge coins?

We accommodate both small units and large organizations. Our tier guide starts from small production batches of just 20 coins, making custom challenge coins accessible for small teams, specialist units, or limited events without forcing you into massive bulk orders.

How long does it take from placing an order to receiving my coins?

Once you approve your digital artwork proof and confirm payment, standard production and delivery typically take around 3 to 4 weeks. If you have a firm deadline for a presentation, parade, or corporate event, let us know during your initial inquiry so we can ensure your timeline is met.

What is the difference between Soft Enamel, Hard Enamel, and 3D Detailing?

Soft Enamel: Features raised metal borders with recessed paint fills, giving the coin a distinct tactile, textured finish.

Hard Enamel: Paint fills are polished down smooth and flush with the metal lines, producing a flat, durable, jewellery-like finish.

3D Detailing: Uses dimensional die-striking for rounded contours, lifelike faces, crests, or architectural elements that standard 2D flat metal cannot achieve.

Will I see what my coins look like before production starts?

Yes. We provide a detailed digital proof showing exact dimensions, colors, edge styles, and finishes before you spend a penny on production. You can review the design, request adjustments, and only give full approval when you are completely satisfied with the final look.

Are there any hidden fees for artwork, molds, or shipping?

No hidden surprises. Your quote explicitly covers design proofing, minting, finishing, and delivery. We provide a clear cost upfront based on your selected size, quantity, and custom extras. Plus, we offer free UK shipping on orders over £50.

What customisation options do you offer for edges, numbering, and presentation?

We offer a full suite of bespoke finishes to ensure your coin feels truly premium.

6 Custom Edge Styles: Oblique line, flat wave, curve wave, rope edge, standard flat, or ribbed edge.

Personalisation: Sequential serial numbering and custom edge text engraving.

Finishes & Presentation: Premium metal platings, enamel fills, and dedicated coin presentation gift boxes.

What coin size should I choose? Can you make custom shapes?

1.75" (44.5mm): The classic traditional size—compact, easy to carry in a pocket, and ideal for standard crests and logos.

2.00" (50.8mm): Ideal for intricate designs, dual-logo coins, detailed text, 3D relief work, or statement presentation pieces.

Custom Sizes & Bespoke Shapes: We can produce literally any size or custom shape you require—including shields, bottle openers, badge contours, and oversized presentation coins. Our price guide focuses on 1.75" and 2.00" simply to keep customer choices and pricing as straightforward as possible, but if you have a unique shape or non-standard dimension in mind, submit your concept and we will build it for you.

What is your Deadline Guarantee?

If you have a strict delivery deadline, your delivery date will be confirmed in writing via email once your artwork, quantity and payment are approved by the agreed cut-off. If we miss that confirmed date for reasons within our control, our money-back guarantee applies and you get your coins for free.

If I need to reorder more coins in the future, how does it work?

We retain your coin’s manufacturing mold on file. When you need a reorder for future cohorts, anniversaries, or recruits, simply contact us with your original order details. Reorders are fast, straightforward, and avoid repeat artwork setup delays.

Do you make military, police and law enforcement challenge coins?

Yes. We create custom challenge coins for military units, squadrons, regiments, police teams, specialist units and law enforcement organisations. We can work from a badge, crest, logo, sketch or rough concept and develop it into a production-ready proof before anything is manufactured.

Can you ship custom challenge coins to the US and worldwide?

Yes. Custom Calibers accepts challenge coin enquiries from the UK, US and other international locations. Tell us where the order is going when you request a quote and we will confirm the project pricing and delivery plan before production begins.
