Custom challenge coins in United States
Made to order, shipped from Dubai to United States. Quotes in AED, USD or your currency.
Struck metal coins with raised relief on both faces. A challenge coin is meant to be handled, so the weight, the edge and the depth of the relief matter as much as the artwork on it.

What does United States order?
American demand runs to unit and squadron insignia, motorcycle club colours and the challenge-coin tradition, which has no real equivalent anywhere else.
- Military and first-responder units ordering unit patches and challenge coins
- Motorcycle clubs ordering back patches, rockers and centre pieces
- Scouting groups, schools and sports teams ordering badges in quantity
- Companies ordering branded pins, keychains and uniform patches
Order early for Veterans Day (11 November), Independence Day (4 July) — these are the busiest weeks of the year and the queue is first come, first served.
Why choose challenge coins?
- Real relief, not engravingThe design is struck into the metal, so it stands proud and catches light. 3D relief adds modelled depth for faces and emblems.
- Plating that sets the toneAntique gold, silver and copper read as heritage. Polished plating reads as new and formal.
- Edge detailingRope, cross-cut and other edge treatments change how the coin feels in the hand.
- Sequential numberingIndividually numbered coins for limited issues and presentation sets.
What else do we make for this market?
United States flag patches — Thirteen horizontal stripes for the original colonies, with fifty white stars on a blue canton. Worn reversed on the right shoulder so the union leads.
Questions we get asked
Shapes Can a coin be a shape other than round?
Yes. Coins are cut to shape from the die, so shields, badges and outlines of objects are all possible.
Artwork Can both sides be different?
Yes, and usually they are — one face for the emblem, the other for the occasion, names or dates.
Finishes Antique or polished?
Antique plating is darkened and then relieved, so the raised detail stands out against shadow — it suits heritage and unit designs. Polished is bright and even, and suits corporate and formal pieces.
Lead time How long does an order take?
Production runs 3 to 6 business days, counted from the moment you approve the proof — not from when you place the order. Shipping is on top of that and depends on the destination and the service you choose.
Timing When does the clock start?
At proof approval. Nothing is cut, stitched or struck until you have seen the digital proof and said yes, so a slow approval moves the finish date with it.
Destinations Where do you ship?
We make to order and ship from Dubai across the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman and Bahrain, and to the United States and United Kingdom. Ask us for anywhere else — it is usually possible.
Minimums Is there a minimum order?
Not on embroidered patches — order one if one is what you need. Moulded and struck lines carry a minimum because they need tooling, and the quote states it before you commit to anything.
File types What artwork do you need from me?
Vector is ideal — AI, EPS or PDF. We also take PNG, JPG, WEBP, TIFF, PSD, GIF and ZIP, and honestly a clear photograph of a sketch is enough to quote from and start on.
No artwork What if I do not have artwork yet?
Send the idea — a rough drawing, a reference you like, or a description. We draw it up and send it back as a proof for you to approve before anything is made.
Proofs Do I see it before it is made?
Always. You get a free digital proof and nothing goes into production until you approve it. If it is not right, say so and we change it.
Contact How do I reach a person?
WhatsApp on +971 52 933 2878 is fastest, or email info@custompik.com. A person answers — there is no ticket queue between you and the people making the thing.
Quotes How do I get a price?
Send the artwork and the quantity and we come back with a fixed quote. Nothing on this site is charged automatically and you pay nothing up front.
Problems What if something arrives wrong?
Tell us and send a photograph. The proof you approved is the reference — if what arrived does not match it, that is on us to put right.
