How Much Do Custom Commemorative Coins Cost? Bulk Pricing, MOQ and Lead Time

Custom commemorative coin cost is quoted per project — Yanlsle does not publish a public unit price. The quote is built from material, size, relief, finish, quantity, packaging, and delivery. MOQ is 50 pieces with a free artwork proof. Stated lead time is 7–10 days after artwork proofing and any agreed sample review. Start from the custom commemorative coins product page when you are ready to RFQ.

What drives custom commemorative coin cost

Every Yanlsle commemorative coin project is priced from the same drivers listed on the product page. There is no catalog “from $X” list, and pin or competitor list prices should not be copied onto a coin RFQ.

1. Material — brass or zinc alloy, selected for artwork, relief depth, and target finish.
2. Size — custom diameters from 4 to 10 cm; round or custom outline with edge details confirmed in artwork review.
3. Relief and process — die-struck or die-cast; reviewed 2D or 3D relief. Deeper or more complex relief typically adds tooling and finishing work versus a flatter 2D face.
4. Finish — soft enamel, hard enamel, or printed details; polished or antique plating. Soft vs hard enamel both affect fill, grind/polish, and inspection steps — see Hard Enamel vs Soft Enamel Coins for the finish deep-dive.
5. Quantity — including runs at MOQ 50 and larger bulk quantities you specify.
6. Packaging — presentation boxes, pouches, or custom retail packaging can be quoted.
7. Delivery — destination and shipping method.

Two projects with the same quantity can still diverge when diameter, metal, relief depth, plating, or packaging differ. That is why the site frames price as a project-specific quote rather than a fixed unit rate.

MOQ and quantity

Yanlsle’s minimum order for custom commemorative coins is 50 pieces, with a free artwork proof before production. Quantity is one of the quote inputs: when you request a quote, state the piece count you need (for example 50, 200, 500, or another run size), plus any per-design splits if you have more than one design.

Larger quantity usually changes unit economics in manufacturing, but Yanlsle does not publish tier tables or percentage savings on the product page. Do not assume a published bulk discount schedule. Put the quantities you need in the RFQ and let the factory quote against those numbers.

If you are comparing finishes (soft enamel vs hard enamel) at the same quantity, ask for both finishes on the same size, metal, and plating baseline so the comparison stays apples-to-apples. Details on those finishes are covered in the hard vs soft enamel coins article.

Size, material, relief, and finish

These four choices usually move the quote as much as quantity does.

Size. Custom diameters run from 4 to 10 cm. Larger diameters use more metal and tooling capacity; custom outlines and edge details are confirmed during artwork review rather than assumed from a stock die.

Material. Brass or zinc alloy is selected for the artwork, relief depth, and target finish. Metal choice affects weight feel, plating response, and how fine detail holds — note your preference (or ask for a recommendation) in the RFQ.

Relief and construction. Coins can be die-struck or die-cast, with 2D or 3D relief reviewed before production. 3D and deeper relief generally need more careful die work and finishing than a simple 2D layout.

Finish. Options include soft enamel, hard enamel, or printed details, with polished or antique plating. Soft enamel leaves color in recessed pockets with raised metal lines; hard enamel is filled then ground flush for a smoother face. Printed details are another color path when the design calls for it. Finish is a cost driver, not a free swap — specify it clearly.

For event, anniversary, souvenir, challenge, corporate, or department coins, the same drivers apply. Related guides on the site include how to create commemorative coins, custom challenge coins, custom anniversary coins, and custom event commemorative coins.

Packaging and delivery

Packaging is quoted as part of the project. The product page lists presentation boxes, pouches, or custom retail packaging as options that can be quoted — not as a free default. If coins will be handed out at an event, shipped as gifts, or sold at retail, say so: presentation packaging changes labor and materials versus bulk bagging.

Delivery requirements also enter the quote: destination country or city, preferred shipping method, and any date the coins must arrive. Freight is not a single global flat rate on the product page; include destination and urgency in the RFQ so the factory can price shipping with production.

Lead time and custom process

The stated lead time for Yanlsle commemorative coins is 7–10 days. Artwork proofing and any agreed sample review are completed before bulk production. Extra sample or finish-revision rounds can extend the schedule beyond that window.

The product page process is:

1. Requirement Discussion — quantity, target date, size, metal, finish, packaging, destination.
2. Provide Artwork — logos, dates, event art, text (or a clear brief if art follows).
3. Design Layout — factory layout for review.
4. Sample Confirmation — any agreed sample before bulk.
5. Production — bulk run after confirmation.
6. Quality Check & Shipping — QC then ship to the agreed destination.

Plan backward from your event or ship-by date: leave room for requirement discussion, artwork, layout, and sample confirmation, then the 7–10 day production window.

How to get an accurate quote

A complete RFQ reduces back-and-forth and avoids under-scoped quotes. Include:

• Quantity (and per-design quantities if more than one design)
• Target date / ship-by date
• Size (diameter in cm within 4–10 cm, or “recommend”)
• Metal preference (brass or zinc alloy) or ask for a recommendation
• Relief preference (2D / 3D; die-struck / die-cast if you have a preference)
• Finish (soft enamel, hard enamel, or printed) and plating (polished or antique)
• Packaging (boxes, pouches, custom retail, or bulk)
• Delivery destination and preferred shipping method
• Artwork when ready (or note that artwork will follow)
