At Fast Marching, we believe the beauty of a great souvenir lies in the craftsmanship, and every detail matters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Our process begins with design and mold making. Whether you provide a sketch or just a concept, our team turns it into a precise digital file. This file is then used to create a custom mold. For 3D relief pieces, we use CNC engraving to capture every curve and detail, ensuring the final product has depth and texture. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">This mold is the foundation of every coin we make, and we inspect it carefully before production begins. Next comes the forming stage. We use high-quality zinc alloy, brass, or iron, depending on your needs. Die-casting or stamping presses shape the metal into the coin or medal form. Our skilled workers monitor this step closely, checking for consistent thickness, smooth edges, and no burrs. This attention to detail ensures that every piece is uniform and ready for the next step.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37758\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c.png 800w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c-430x430.png 430w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c-700x700.png 700w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/fm5_\u526f\u672c-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"434\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-1300x434.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37837\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-1300x434.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-400x134.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-768x257.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-430x144.jpg 430w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-700x234.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121-150x50.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/123121.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:33.33%\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"800\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37766\" style=\"width:319px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c.png 800w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c-430x430.png 430w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c-700x700.png 700w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Medal017_\u526f\u672c-768x768.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:66.66%\">\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The most exciting part is coloring and plating. For enamel coins, we fill each color section by hand, layer by layer, before baking to harden the enamel. This gives the coin its vibrant, durable color. For antique finishes, we use a special plating process that adds depth to the raised details, creating that classic, aged look. We offer a full range of finishes: bright gold, silver, antique bronze, gunmetal, and more.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Finally, every piece goes through a final quality check. We inspect the plating, enamel, and engraving to ensure they meet our high standards. We then clean and polish each coin or medal by hand before packing. This commitment to craftsmanship means when you order from us, you\u2019re not just getting a product\u2014you\u2019re getting a piece made with care.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1300\" height=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-1300x433.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-37835\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-1300x433.jpg 1300w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-400x133.jpg 400w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-768x256.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-430x143.jpg 430w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-700x233.jpg 700w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32-150x50.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/05\/32.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1300px) 100vw, 1300px\" \/><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Every custom coin an<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_gspb_post_css":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-37834","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37834","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=37834"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37834\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":37842,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/37834\/revisions\/37842"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=37834"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=37834"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.medalandbadge.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=37834"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
