THE HISTORY OF UNITED STATES MARINE CORP CHALLENGE COIN AWARDS

At one point, the challenge coin industry followed a certain cookie-cutter approach: round, flat, and unimpressive coins.

Though this classic design is still in use today, people have begun to specifically request more innovative and intriguing designs.

Clients started bringing us more complex concepts. Instead of avoiding the project as other companies had, we embraced the opportunity. We began to increase the difficulty and detail in coins; we began experimenting and bringing expectations to yet another level. Some succeeded; some failed.

In the end, what was the client's reaction to their completed work?

The impact was so strong that a new flood of high-quality, detailed coin requests arrived not long after. The news about the high quality and distinctive designs were quickly passed around throughout the world's militaries and police.
