Challenge coins are great for handing out to individuals who excel in their line of work. For fire departments, this could mean someone went above and beyond the call of duty. Receiving a custom coin like the one you see here is an honor that is taken very seriously.
Just by looking at the front of this coin, you can see the time and energy that went into drawing this coin. The captains of company 3 wanted to come up with a coin design that would not look like any other coins out there. They also added sequential numbering so that the recipients of this award would know that they were 1 of only a few people to earn this coin.
Sequential numbering adds value to the coin because there is only a limited number of that particular coin ever minted. This adds to the collectability of the coin and makes it appear to be very valuable. Anyone wanting to get their hands on a custom challenge coin like this one will have to have earned the honor.
A very interesting detail that was done on the front of this is what we call diamond plating. You can see in the center circle that the silver paint fill area has little raised gold sections that emulate diamond plating. Diamond plating can be seen on truck tool boxes, or even stair treads that lead up to a stage or bleachers.
The words “Presented by the Captains of Company 3” makes it possible for everyone to know that the recipient must have done something special to have earned it.
Rotating the design of this coin so that it is oriented like a diamond was a design trick used to grab one’s attention. Did it work? Thinking outside the box is encouraged whenever coming up with a concept for challenge coins. Using your design ideas, we can create a coin that stands out in a crowd.
