Commemorative Coins

MC ART AWARDS Custom Commemorative Coins Production Process：

1. Design and Conceptualization

• Client Consultation: The process starts by discussing your specific needs, including coin size, design, text, and any specific elements such as logos or symbols you want to feature.

• Design Creation: Our design team develops a detailed digital design or 3D model of the coin, incorporating your elements. We refine the design until it perfectly aligns with your vision.

2. Material Selection

• Zinc Alloy: A versatile material, zinc alloy is commonly used for its durability, ability to retain fine details, and cost-effectiveness.

• Copper: Copper provides a rich, classic look and is often chosen for its natural color and durability. It can be polished to a high sheen, making it a popular choice for premium commemorative coins.

• Stainless Steel: Known for its strength and resistance to corrosion, stainless steel is ideal for coins intended to last for many years without tarnishing. It’s an excellent choice for high-end, durable commemorative coins.

3. Mold Creation

• Die Creation: A die is created based on the design. This die is used to stamp the design onto the metal. The die captures all of the intricate details and is used for mass production or custom orders.

• Mold Preparation: In cases where casting is required (especially for complex 3D designs), molds are prepared for pouring molten metal (zinc alloy, copper, or stainless steel).

4. Coin Striking or Casting

• Stamping (for Metal Coins): For zinc alloy, copper, and stainless steel, the die is used to stamp or strike the design into a metal blank using a coin press. The high pressure ensures the details are precisely transferred onto the coin.

• Casting (for 3D Designs): In the case of more intricate 3D designs or larger coin orders, molten metal is poured into molds to create the coin shape. After cooling, the coin is removed from the mold and is ready for further finishing.

5. Engraving and Detailing

• Laser Engraving: For coins with text, logos, or intricate patterns, laser engraving can be used to achieve sharp, precise details. Laser engraving ensures fine lines and precision on the surface of the coin.

• Embossing or Debossing: Certain elements may be raised (embossed) or recessed (debossed) for added depth, particularly for logos, symbols, or key design features.

6. Finishing and Plating

• Polishing: Once the design is struck or cast, the coin undergoes polishing to remove any imperfections and give it a smooth, glossy finish. The polishing enhances the coin’s visual appeal and prepares it for any additional treatments.

• Plating: Depending on the design, we apply plating such as gold, silver, or nickel to enhance the coin’s look and durability. Plating also protects the coin from tarnishing.

• Coloring (Optional): If the design features specific areas requiring color, enamel coloring is applied and baked. This ensures the color remains vibrant and resistant to fading.

7. Quality Control

• Inspection: Each commemorative coin is carefully inspected for quality. We check for any imperfections, such as misaligned designs, flaws in the metal, or issues with the finish.

• Detail Verification: We ensure that the engraving, embossing, and plating are precise and consistent across all coins, ensuring that every coin meets the highest standards.

8. Packaging

• Premium Packaging: After the coins pass inspection, they are carefully packaged to avoid damage during transport. Custom packaging options like velvet boxes, acrylic display cases, or wooden presentation boxes can be provided for a premium presentation.

• Protective Packaging: The coins are carefully cushioned within protective packaging to maintain their pristine condition during shipping.

9. Delivery

• Once production and packaging are completed, the commemorative coins are shipped to the customer. We ensure safe, timely delivery to meet deadlines, regardless of location.
