What is the 16 3/4" Gold/Silver Completed Metal Cup Trophy?
A working trophy. Die-cast zinc alloy with a plated finish. It measures 8 1/4"(L)x 5 1/2"(W)x 16 3/4"(H) with handles. This is the gold colorway, one of 2 in the range.
Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed. Plating then sets the finish. Gold, silver or bronze. That is the difference between something kept and something replaced.
Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. On this substrate specifically: artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess.
The piece stays on a desk for years, which is the whole return. Choose recipients the way you would choose who to take to dinner. Concretely: $95.25 each at 1-11, $59.06 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Do not spend a week hunting for the perfect file. Send what exists and we will tell you what is usable.
- Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.
Production schedule
| Proof to you | Within one business day of usable artwork arriving |
|---|---|
| Production, standard | 3 to 5 business days, counted from your approval |
| Production, rush | quoted per job, confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Transit by ground | 1 to 5 business days, by distance from the shipping point |
Common uses
Where this works best
The same item lands differently depending on who gets it and why. Here is how this one performs across the programs it sells into most.
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Names, dates and short inscriptions turn an ordinary object into something kept for decades. Quantities are modest and lead times are unforgiving, which makes production scheduling the thing to get right. Trophies photograph well, that matters when the award is going to be posted before it is shelved. Executive tier. Treat the engraving as carefully as the invoice.
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Awards are read as a hierarchy whether or not you intended one. If the participation piece and the champion piece look similar, the champion feels short-changed, and that is remembered longer than the result. Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. Even at volume it holds $59.06, which tells you what tier this is.
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Student-facing items live rough. They go in backpacks, get left outdoors and are rarely cleaned, so durability matters more than finish. Faculty and donor gifting is the opposite problem and deserves an entirely separate specification. The trophy format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.
Employee Recognition & Service Awards
Recognition fails when the object does not match the words. If you are marking five or ten years of someone's working life, the piece has to carry weight. Literally and otherwise. Personalization with the individual's name is what converts a company gift into a personal keepsake, and it is the single highest-leverage decision in a recognition program. At $95.25 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.

What do buyers ask about CMC353?
What artwork do you need from me?
Vector artwork is ideal (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) with all type converted to outlines. High-resolution raster at 300 dpi or better also works, and a logo saved from a website is worth sending anyway. We check it against the 4 in x 4 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
How should this be cared for?
Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasives, which cut through plating. CMC353 measures 8 1/4"(L)x 5 1/2"(W)x 16 3/4"(H) with handles and is made of zinc alloy. Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed.
How long does production take?
Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. The clock starts when you approve the proof, not when you place the order. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
Do you ship to multiple addresses?
Yes, through a quote. Card checkout ships one order to one address, so for a split run send the address list with a quote request and we confirm the freight for every destination in writing before you pay. The artwork is proofed once and applied across the whole run. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.
What happens if something arrives damaged?
We replace damaged pieces. Send a photograph and the item number within 10 days of delivery and we handle the carrier claim ourselves. If the box arrives visibly damaged, write that on the freight bill before signing. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
Is there a setup charge?
No. Setup is free on every order at every quantity. Art preparation, machine setup and your digital proof are built into the price, with nothing added for them later. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 196 of CMC353 in stock as of the last hourly sync. If a color is short we say so the day you order rather than the week before the deadline. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
What is the minimum order for CMC353?
CMC353 can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on CMC353 runs from $95.25 a piece at 1-11 down to $59.06 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on CMC353 is 4 in x 4 in.
