Check out the difference
With an eye for attention to detail, compare the original coin on the left with the Gray Water Ops coin on the right. We added 3D detail to the design, used a matte nickel instead of a shiny finish and made all of the text easier to read when looking at the coin. We made the white background areas in 2D or 3D metal, to allow painting the correct colors for the text. Also, silver metal doesn’t contrast well against a white background, We dual plated the USSOCOM patch so the spear could be raised 3D metal instead of just outlining the spear. We corrected the color error on the bottom left patch. Color should be gray but the original coin made them blue. The bottom right image, we made the center image in 3D gold to capture the texture.
Free artwork from an artist who’s been designing custom coins for nearly 30 years. I’ll take your original art idea and with some artistic license, make it better so your coin doesn’t look like 20 other coins you’ve seen before!

WE OFFER FREE CHALLENGE COIN, PATCH AND LAPEL PIN ARTWORK AS LONG AS GRAY WATER OPS MINTS YOUR COINS, LAPEL PINS OR EMBROIDERED PATCHES! We do not create custom art as part of our free service.

If you start an order and ask for artwork, we will complete the art and make any changes as needed. Once approved, we will put the coins into production. If we complete art and you decide NOT to order, we will charge a $150 art fee to compensate for the time spent working on your art. If you need something custom made, we charge $75 per hour for artwork outside normal layout. Most orders do not require custom artwork and don’t have any art fees. If you place your order at a later date, you will get a credit for the $150 art fee paid.
