One coin.
No minimum.

Custom challenge coins in gold and silver, made one at a time. Most coin makers need an order of fifty and a hundred-dollar setup fee. We need about five minutes and a description of what you want.

Start designing

Every coin gets looked at by a person.

PrintGlo is a shop in California, not a factory or a middleman. Your design goes past a human being before it goes to the printer — checking the spelling, the fit, whether it’ll actually read at 40mm.

Then it’s printed, gloss coated, cased, and packed by hand.

It’s why we can make you exactly one.

We print around the surface, not over it.

We don’t print gold. We print on gold.

Everywhere your design leaves the surface open, the bare polished metal shows through — as the background, inside the lettering, in the highlights of a portrait. It catches light the way a struck coin does, because it is one.

Most printed coins are ink on a white base. Ours aren’t.

What people put on them

Sobriety milestones. A dog who was around a long time. The trip you took in the spring. A unit, a team, a crew. The groomsmen. Someone who retired after thirty-one years.
