What is a masonic challenge coin?

A masonic challenge coin is a custom minted coin carried by members of a lodge as a token of membership, a marker of a milestone, or a gift between brothers. The artwork is what makes it masonic: the square and compass around the letter G, the all-seeing eye, the twin pillars, the checkered pavement, and the lodge’s own name, number, and jurisdiction. Beyond the artwork it behaves like any other challenge coin — carried in a pocket, presented by hand, and kept for decades. See our custom masonic coins page for design options.
