What is the Gold Metal Cup-13 1/2"?
This is a trophy cup in zinc alloy. Straightforward to decorate, and durable enough that the decoration outlasts the occasion. It measures 13 1/2". This is the gold colorway.
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.
A cup is the most recognizable award form there is. It needs no explanation in a photograph. On this substrate specifically: artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess.
Executive tier, where individual personalization is expected rather than optional. Budget it against specific relationships, not against a headcount. Concretely: $48.25 each at 1-11, $29.92 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- Name the PMS values for anything that has to match a brand standard; screen color is not a reliable reference.
- Outline your fonts before sending. It removes the most common cause of a proof coming back wrong.
- Artwork we redraw stays on file under your item number, so the next order runs from the same corrected file.
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.

Common uses
Championships and tournamentsChampionships and tournaments is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Annual perpetual awardsSpecified regularly for annual perpetual awards. The imprint area at 1.2 in x 5 in is sized for exactly that job.
Internal contests and incentivesA tangible prize outperforms a gift card for exactly the reason you would expect. It stays on the desk.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.
Community and civic eventsLocal sponsorships and volunteer thanks, where visible presence matters more than volume.
Service anniversariesFive, ten and twenty years. The object marks the span in a way a announcement never manages.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Recruiting and onboardingIncluded in offer packs and first-day kits, where the object is doing culture work from the very first hour.
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.
1
Nonprofit & Fundraising
Every pound spent on a donor gift is a pound not spent on the mission, so the gift has to earn it. Volunteer recognition is where the money works hardest. Volunteers give time that would otherwise cost you wages, and the marginal cost of thanking them properly is trivial against what their continued involvement is worth. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.
2
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. Participation medals for the field, distinct pieces for placegetters, and something with real presence for the overall champion. Production timing is usually the binding constraint, so lock artwork well before the event rather than after the results are known. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. At $48.25 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.
3
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Departments buy separately even when the brand is shared, which is how a university ends up with nine versions of its own crest. A single approved item list with locked artwork solves more than any individual purchasing decision will. An imprint area of 1.2 in x 5 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. Reserve it for named recipients: key clients, top performers, long service.
4
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. Guests keep what they can use and discard what merely commemorates. An item that works on an ordinary Tuesday will outlive the event by years; one that only makes sense on the day will not survive the drive home. This is a shortlist item. Individual personalisation is expected at this level.

What do buyers ask about EC205G?
How is this decorated?
Die Struck is the primary method on EC205G. The design is struck into metal with a custom die. Crisp raised and recessed relief in solid metal. We can also run Printed Insert and Laser Engraving (back) on this item if the artwork calls for it. The personalization area on EC205G is 1.2 in x 5 in.
Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 756 of EC205G 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.
Can you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes. Give us the in-hand date and checkout tells you immediately whether standard production makes it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit. 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.
Can I order more later and have them match?
Yes. We keep the approved artwork on file against the item number, so a re-order runs from the same file. Material batches can vary slightly on natural materials, which is worth knowing if color matching across orders is critical. The published ladder on EC205G runs from $48.25 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.92 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
Can I see a proof before you produce the order?
Always, and we do not start without written approval. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing. Once approved, the proof becomes the specification for the run, so check the spelling and the placement carefully. The personalization area on EC205G is 1.2 in x 5 in.
What happens if something arrives damaged?
Tell us within 10 days of delivery and we replace it. Note any damage on the freight bill before you sign for it, because that is what the carrier claim turns on. Resolving it with the carrier is our job, not yours. The replacement runs from the artwork you already approved, so it matches the rest of the order.
What is the minimum order for EC205G?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on EC205G. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. The price per piece only goes down as the quantity rises. The published ladder on EC205G runs from $48.25 a piece at 1-11 down to $29.92 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
