I believe, when you want to hold a race, choosing medals<\/a><\/strong><\/span>\u00a0or challenge coins<\/a><\/strong><\/span> is quite a poser! Reading on, weighing the pros and cons and you will make a wise decision. I will show you some tables.<\/p>\n

1) Design<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes: Medals can be designed with a dual side at GS-JJ. However, this option is chosen by fewer buyers. Sometimes, engraving in the backside is a way for buyers who want to add extra information.<\/p>\n

2) Side<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

3) Shape<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes: Although side is different, you can still choose the different sizes in custom medals<\/strong>. The shape of custom medals<\/strong> has many styles like streamline, shield type, and so on. However, custom challenge coins<\/strong> are chosen to design with the round shape on most occasions. With personalization era, the different shape of challenge coins<\/strong> is tried gradually.<\/p>\n

4) Price<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes: If you choose dual side medals, dual side tooling charge is necessary. Because of crafts complexity, challenge coins are a little expensive than medals.<\/p>\n

In addition, due to the cheaper labor and stronger cooperation, many buyers will choose Korea manufacturers. So, the costs of challenge coins\u00a0and medals are cheaper than those made in the US.<\/p>\n

5) Usage<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

6) Size<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes: That’s not to say, you can’t make custom medals or custom challenge coins in a smaller size or bigger size. Those sizes mentioned in the chart are favored by most buyers. After all, customization is up to you!<\/p>\n

7) Accessory<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Notes: In most cases, the ribbon is free at GS-JJ. But if you need the more complex ribbon, you need to pay extra fees.<\/p>\n

All in all, choosing medals or challenge coins is up to you. You need to consider purpose, time, design, and budget with your activity. I wish you choose one for your activity.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
