Your Coin, Your Message: Including Custom Cardstock With Your Order

When you order your set of challenge coins from Signature Coins, you can be sure to get a set of expertly created coins that perfectly match the proof your ordered. But more than that, when your shipment is created and packaged perfectly, you should receive each custom coin already packaged in your chosen presentation option, and each coin package should include a custom cardstock.

The cardstock that comes included with each order features a certificate of authenticity and some general information about our company. While certain customers request that the insert be left off of their order, in general, it’s included free of change. Other customers, however, have taken it a step farther and requested custom cardstock inserts be added to their challenge coin orders in lieu of our standard insert. If you’re thinking of including a special message with your custom coins, look to some of these examples for inspiration. 

What Do You Want Your Challenge Coins to Say?

Each customer gets their coins designed and created for a different reason. Whether it’s to recognize a specific employee or team, or to reinforce the mission of the company, why the coins get made is a decision that’s left up to someone else. But for the International Association of Special Investigation Units, the reasoning behind their coins is clearly listed on the custom cardstock they ordered.

The corporate world is filled with motivational speakers and people who can tell you how to revolutionize your industry, but while a lot of people can put on a good show, Tony Jeary has a long record of getting the kinds of results most people only dream of. He’s been so successful that he’s been dubbed the Results Guy.

Jeary is a consultant for companies across the nation who want to learn how to change their thinking in the interest of increasing their sales and productivity. His intention for his personal challenge coin was that it would remind the people who receive it of the lessons learned in his program and help to push them to keep achieving great results. Instead of trying to cram the entire mission statement onto the coin face, Jeary got it printed on special cardstock and included with each coin. 

While Jeary’s card insert is intended to deepen the coin holder’s understanding of Jeary’s lessons, some of the inserts customers request are used to explain the symbols on their custom coin and the deeper meaning behind some of the imagery chosen in the design.

On June 12, 2016, our home town of Orlando was rocked by an attack on the Pulse nightclub. It was a moment that shook the entire city to its core, and brought people a lot closer together in its aftermath. Within no time at all, #OrlandoUnited was trending and being used to embody the kind of strength and resilience the city needed to make it through an event like this. When the FBI contacted us to create a coin for the brave first responders who answered the initial calls and rushed in to save as many lives as possible, we were honored to be able to help. 


The insert that comes with the Orlando United coin explains the importance of the stars and the EKG lines included in the coin’s design. Often our customers don’t take the time to explain every aspect of their design. However, for a coin with such a deep significance to so many, that explanation is truly important. 

Designing Your Cardstock

Our artists’ talents don’t stop at making amazing custom coins. The different card inserts you see here were all designed by the customers ordering them and brought to life by our art team. If you aren’t quite sure what you’d like your cardstock to say, simply give us a few ideas and we’ll be able to send you different proofs in the exact same way that we send quotes for your challenge coin. Indeed, with the ability to put custom designs on the front and back of the cards, it’s almost like having a second coin to design. 

If you’ve got a coin design that you think speaks for itself, we’re happy to supply the standard card insert with your order without any questions. If you’d rather not have any cardstock whatsoever, we can make that happen too; simply let our sales team know, and we’ll make the proper arrangements. However, if you’re interested in doing something truly special and meaningful with the cardstock included in your order, send us your ideas and let our art team get to work for you.
