Designing a coin can be a lot of fun, but when you don’t know how it can be challenging. Sure you can get all the FREE artwork you want from many companies but honestly they won’t deliver a complex project like a paid designer. Sometimes in certain situations you need more, almost like the difference between the $500 computer and the $1500. You spend a little more but you get serious results. Here at U.S. Challenge Coins .com we offer free artwork, we will even give you the additional touch of personal attention, but sometimes we just can’t due to complex ideas that our customers can’t vision or the lack of ability to dedicate 3 days of continuous artwork while other customers are on hold.
Noting our flaw of having your dream artist on staff making big bucks we found artists that will do your coin design on contract. This means they are your artist and you pay them to deliver your dream. Our artist we have chosen to deliver artworks that call for this type of work is Jana Wilson, owner of JW Enameling. Jana has her own painting shop in Indiana and has been in the business for 20 years. Not only is she awesome at what she does, she is also very personable. We support her and her team of custom painters. Below in the chart you can see her rates for designing your concept coin.
| B&W Artwork | $50 |
| Color Artwork | $85 |
| Combo Deal for Both | $115 |
What Software Is Used?
All artwork is done in Adobe Photoshop and when it’s ready for mint we just need to send it factory and GO!
Once you have your design ready to go we take that to mint. USCC’s prices will help offset your cost on the professional design any day. As a team we are dedicated to get you the top coin that you or your organization deserves. Remember artwork that is ready is often the one factor that increases quality and speed of delivery. Artwork that is free takes about 24 hrs for some places to weeks for others. Even if you have artwork from other sources it is still useable to make your coin.
If you have more questions or need to contact Jana directly to get started please check out her direct site, Designing a Coin.
