What is the difference between die-struck and die-cast challenge coins?
All of our Challenge Coins are struck from engraved steel dies, not cast from a mold. Our experts meticulously engrave your design onto a set of steel dies. These are placed in a coin press, which uses up to 1,000 tons of pressure to “stamp” the design on the raw metal coin surface. The result is a finished coin that features exceptional detail. Casting is a far less intricate process that involves melting down metal and pouring it into a mold.
