Custom Coin Price: How Much Does it Cost to Create a Custom Challenge Coin?
The price of a custom coin can vary a lot depending on the size and style you order and the quantity you need.

What Is the Average Cost of a Challenge Coin?
Since the prices of custom coins can vary so widely, it's hard to pin down one average cost. However, if we look at the most popular style and size, a soft enamel pin with a 1.75-inch diameter, the average cost of a challenge coin works out to somewhere between $3 and $6.
Here are a few other facts about custom coin price options:
- If you buy a set of 25 soft enamel coins that are 1.25 inches in diameter, they'll cost $12 each.
- The more you buy, the lower the price per coin. The same 1.25-inch soft enamel coins only cost $2.25 each if you order 5,000 of them.
- The most expensive variety of custom coin is a U.S. made die-struck coin. These high-quality coins are meticulously crafted by expert die-cutters and metalworkers, and they cost up to $175 apiece.
