Can you put Hebrew, Arabic, Latin, or other non-English text on a coin?

Yes, and it’s common on religious coins — Hebrew lettering on synagogue coins, Latin inscriptions on Catholic designs, Arabic on Islamic ones, and Sanskrit or Pali on Buddhist coins. Send us the text exactly as it should appear, including diacritics, vowel points, and reading direction, ideally as copyable text rather than a screenshot. Our art team lays it out and you’ll see it on your free digital proof before anything is struck, so any spacing or letterform issue gets caught while it’s still free to fix.
