Solid brass medals cost 40\u201380% more and are reserved for premium military-style and corporate pieces. Iron is cheapest but limited to 2D designs and rusts if plating is scratched. For material comparisons that affect coin-type products, our <a href=\"\/zinc-alloy-vs-brass-challenge-coins\/\">zinc alloy vs brass guide<\/a> applies to medals too.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Hit Your Budget<\/h2>\n<p>Three levers move bulk pricing fastest: increase quantity (500\u21921,000 pcs saves ~25%), reduce thickness (3.5mm\u21922.5mm saves ~12%), and standardize plating (single gold instead of tri-color set). Marathon and event organizers can also see how our <a href=\"\/custom-marathon-medals\/\">marathon medals<\/a> page handles multi-distance medal sets within one budget.<\/p>\n<h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\n<h3>What is the minimum order for custom medals?<\/h3>\n<p>100 pcs for standard designs; 50 pcs possible with a small-batch surcharge.<\/p>\n<h3>How long does bulk medal production take?<\/h3>\n<p>12\u201315 days after artwork approval, plus 5\u20137 days air shipping to the US or Europe.<\/p>\n<h3>Are the medals safe for children&#8217;s events?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes \u2014 we produce to EN71-3 and CPSIA standards with SGS test reports on request.
