Over our 15 years of experience crafting custom military challenge coins, we’ve been honored to work with every branch of the military to design high-quality military challenge coins in every shape, color, and size. Our team includes military veterans who understand how important these coins are as mementos of service and keepsakes of personal history. The streamlined production process we use can design your order, and then have it sent to your location anywhere in the world usually in 14 days or less, with free priority air shipping.

What Are Military Academy Challenge Coins?

Challenge coins are given in recognition of a graduate’s efforts and serve as a symbol of solidarity for members of a unit or graduating class. During the course of their career, a military officer may gain dozens of coins telling the story of their service with specific units, operations, or simply as a token of regard from a higher official. These coins are also a key part of one of our military’s oldest traditions. The “coin check,” a long-running tradition among our nation’s military forces to “challenge” fellow coin recipients to have a challenge coin ready at any time. Failing to meet the challenge by presenting a coin when challenged means the first round of drinks is on the coinless service member.

Whether it’s for a newly graduated student who is receiving the first coin of their career or a career veteran who is adding yet another chapter of history to their service, we strive toward excellence in providing a quality product that will last for years.

Whether a student is preparing to serve in the U.S. Army, U.S. Navy, U.S. Marine Corps, U.S. Coast Guard, or U.S. Air Force, instructors recognize their success and immortalize their achievement with a challenge coin custom-made with the unique symbols of their unit. Depending on where they are on their career, this coin could be the first official recognition of their service or the latest chapter in their long career toward an officer position.
