Full-Color Printed Coins

The details

Full-Color Printed Coins

Our full-color printed coins remove every color limit. Instead of filling engraved recesses, we offset-print your artwork directly onto a struck metal blank — photographs, gradients, fine shading, dozens of colors — then seal it under a crystal-clear epoxy dome that protects the print and gives the face a subtle lens-like curve. If your design has a portrait, a full-color unit patch, an event photo, or sponsor logos that can’t be simplified into enamel sections, this is the format that reproduces it exactly.

The epoxy dome is what makes the print permanent. It cures glass-clear and slightly raised, guarding the artwork against scratches, moisture, and pocket wear while adding a satisfying depth to the face. The reverse side can carry a second full-color print, a struck-metal design, or engraved text, so a memorial coin can pair a photograph on the front with a struck crest on the back. Plating on the rim and struck areas runs gold, silver, or black nickel.

Printing at coin scale is unforgiving, so our designers prep every file for it — sharpening small text, adjusting contrast so faces read clearly at 2 inches, and building clean bleeds to the printed area. Sizes run 1.5 to 3 inches, and race directors love this format for finisher coins because the event artwork, date, and sponsor marks all fit without compromise. Capsules and pouches are included options for presentation.

Full-color printed coins suit designs that are pictures, not just emblems. Every order includes a free mockup so you can see your artwork on the coin face before we produce, plus unlimited free revisions. Ready to put the whole picture on a coin?
