In manufacturing a die struck or die stamped imitation cloisonné style award medal, a sheet of soft copper is placed under a revolving press and struck with very high pressure that leaves an impression of your design deeply imbedded into the copper plate.  The award medal is then plated in a finish of your choice. If the medal calls for colored areas to be filled in your design then all of the individual areas of the design are filled in with different colored resins and then baked in a high temperature kiln one color at a time. This is why cloisonné and imitation cloisonné styles are a little more expensive then enamel colored medals. We offer our custom made award medals in double sided or finished with a high polished plated back. This style is our second most commonly ordered medal style.

Note: All size and color combinations of Neck & Chest Ribbons are available. Just let us know your ribbon colors, hanging method & length. 

Note: Prices start between 2.50 each & $3.50 each based on 500 Pcs. depending on your artwork, plating and finishing requirements, coin thickness and number of colors.

Die Stamped Enameled Award Medals

In manufacturing a die struck or die stamped enamel style award medal, a sheet of brass is placed under a revolving press and struck with very high pressure, leaving an impression of your design deeply imbedded into the brass plate.  The award medal is then plated to your specifications. If the medal calls for colored areas then all of the individual areas of the design are filled in with different colored high gloss enamel paint and then baked in a high temperature kiln. All colors are baked at the same time saving time and money. For added color brightness and durability a clear epoxy finish is often added to the top surface of your coin and then re-fired. The minimal cost increase of the epoxy coating is easily justified by the extra protection and durability it offers, protecting your award medal for years to come.

We offer our custom made award medals in double sided or finished with a high polished plated back. Die struck soft enamel coins are moderately priced and are most popular choice with our customers. Solid Brass, Bronze, Silver, gold or Pewter award medals are also available in this style.

Note: All size and color combinations of Neck & Chest Ribbons are available. Just let us know your ribbon colors, hanging method & length. 

Note: Prices start between 1.75 each & $2.50 each based on 500 Pcs. depending on your artwork, plating and finishing requirements, thickness and number of colors.
