You can pay for your order online via check or credit card. We accept Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, check, or money orders. Production will begin as soon as your payment is received.
[ Shipping ]
How much is shipping?
Our shipping is air delivery. It needs 2 days. Generally speaking, shipping is free. But there is a special case. We can send the APO/FPO address. The problem is that FedEx can't deliver the goods to APO/FPO.
So we will send the package to our California office first. Then we can USPS it to APO/FPO. In this case, we need to charge the customer extra transportation fees and add additional transportation dates. Because the parcel will not be delivered directly, there is a process of transshipment. All in all, you will get the lowest prices.
[ UV Print ]
What are UV printed coins?
The UV-printed coins are made with UV printing technology. They can 100% show your coin design with vivid colors and patterns. UV printing is a common and popular technique that transfers your inked picture on the printing surface of coins.

Fast production in 3 days, shipping in 3 days, with guaranteed quality. Need it sooner? We offer 24-hour rush options. Longer lead times come with discounts of 15%, 25%, and 30% for 7, 22, and 30 working days.
[ Design Artwork ]
Can I order this design from your website?
All images in the gallery and exhibition, and their design, are the copyrighted designs of our customers. You cannot order someone else's design without their explicit permission.
[ Material ]
What are the challenge coins made out of?
Typically, our challenge coins are either made of brass or zinc. Zinc can be more detailed, but it is lighter and less malleable than brass.
[ Finish Options ]
What metal finishes are available?
Custom metal coins offer various metal finish options. Including shiny gold, shiny silver, copper, shiny black nickel, antique gold, antique brass, antique silver, antique copper, two-tone, and rainbow finish. These finishes enhance the appearance of challenge coins.
[ 2D VS 3D ]
What is the difference between 2D and 3D?
With a 2D coin, the surface will be flat, and the metal linework that makes up the coin design will be raised, with the top of the line flat. With a 3D coin, the surface will be raised, and the design will be detailed and rounded off to give it a 3D effect. 3D will be more expensive.
A 2D coin only has two levels, one raised level over a lower recessed level. 3D coins have infinite levels of raised and recessed detail, allowing for sculpted images and rounded edges with more realistic depth on a coin's metallic surface.
Challenge Coin History
For a deeper understanding of what challenge coins are, it's important to learn the art history. The actual origin of the coin may never be known. Below are the most popular stories about the history of the Military Coin.
GS-JJ.com is proud to be the World’s leading manufacturer and qualified coin maker of Challenge Coins and to be part of Challenge Coin Art History.
WWI Coin History: Are You Interested?
During World War I, in one squadron, a wealthy lieutenant ordered medallions struck in solid bronze and presented them to his unit. One young pilot placed the medallion in a small leather pouch that he wore around his neck.
It became a tradition to ensure that all unit members carried their medallion or coin at all times. So that is the story behind challenge coin history and traditions.
WWII Coin History: Know More?
Another tradition dates to US Military service members assigned to occupy post-World War II Germany. WWII history is also an indispensable part to understand the history of coins and what challenge coins are.
With the exchange rate, the West German One Pfennig coin was worth only a fraction of a U.S. cent, and they were generally considered not to have enough value to be worth keeping unless one was broke.
Vietnam Coin History: Why Not Read?
The tradition of the military coins dates back to Vietnam, actually, when soldiers would tote along with a piece of “lucky” ordnance that had helped them or narrowly missed them.
What were Challenge Coins during this period? At first, it was small arms ammunition, but this practice grew to much bigger and more dangerous ordnance as time wound on.
