How many metal finishes can one challenge coin have?

Two is by far the most common and the easiest to design around, but we can combine more than two metal platings on a single coin when the artwork calls for it. The practical limit is legibility rather than manufacturing — past two or three metals, a design starts to compete with itself and the accent stops reading as an accent.

Our art team will tell you honestly if a third finish is adding value or just adding cost, and you’ll see the result on a free proof either way.
