What is the Cheer Shooting Star Medal-Bronze, 2 1/2"?
The Cheer Shooting Star Medal-Bronze, 2 1/2" is what most buyers mean when they ask for a medal that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 2 1/2". This is the bronze colorway.
In practice: casting is what allows shapes, figures, sport-specific sculpts, dimensional forms, that simply cannot be cut from crystal or metal at a comparable price. It is the reason resin dominates youth sport and participation awards.
Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. On this substrate specifically: decoration is applied to an engraving plate or a printed plate fitted to the base, not to the sculpt itself.
Giveaway pricing, which changes how you should think about quantity. Running short at a booth costs more in missed conversations than the extra units would have cost to print. Concretely: $6.00 each at 1-11, $3.72 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.

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.
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Recognition pieces for major donors and board members are the clearest win: they are relatively few, they are highly personal, and they materially affect renewal. For event merchandise, price the item to sell rather than to give. At $6.00 before breaks it is cheap enough to hand out without counting.
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. The unit cost here is low enough that reach matters more than restraint.
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. Minimum order is a single piece, which suits how this segment tends to buy. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Challenge coins, unit recognition, retirement and commendation pieces all carry established conventions. Sourcing compliance and documented lead times usually matter as much as the item itself. Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. Volume is the point at $6.00; nobody is auditing this line item.
How does ordering and turnaround work?
| Minimum order | 1 piece |
|---|---|
| Setup | None: setup is built into the price |
| Freight | Free ground freight above $250, and we can split a run across individual addresses |
| Rush service | Working to a date? Ask and we will confirm what is genuinely possible, priced up front |
| Proofing | One business day to proof, then production starts the moment you sign off |
| Re-orders | We keep the approved file, so a re-order reproduces it exactly |
| Shipping | Free ground freight above $250, and we can split a run across individual addresses |
What do buyers ask about ST69B?
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 390 of ST69B 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.
How is this decorated?
Laser Engraving (plate) is the primary method on ST69B. The engraving plate is lasered, then fitted to the award. A permanent engraved plate on a cast body. We can also run UV Printing (plate) and Sublimated Plate on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on ST69B is 1.5 in x 1.13 in.
Can I mix colors or sizes to reach a quantity break?
Yes, provided the artwork stays the same across the run. Different artwork is fine as well: it gets its own proof, and setup stays free. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The published ladder on ST69B runs from $6.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $3.72 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
How long does production take?
Door to door at standard speed: a day for the proof, 3 to 5 business days in production, then 1 to 5 business days in transit. A rush is quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay.
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.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on ST69B is 1.5 in x 1.13 in. If your mark does not sit well in that shape we redraw or re-proportion it and show you the result on the proof before anything is produced. Engraving is charged on the share of the area your artwork covers, so a smaller mark costs less.
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 is the minimum order for ST69B?
ST69B can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on ST69B runs from $6.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $3.72 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on ST69B is 1.5 in x 1.13 in.
