What is the Gold Metal Cup-8 3/4", Style CMC201G?
The Gold Metal Cup-8 3/4", Style CMC201G is what most buyers mean when they ask for a trophy cup that will not look cheap in six months. It measures 8 3/4". 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.
Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. A cup is the most recognizable award form there is. It needs no explanation in a photograph.
At this level the piece is doing relationship work, not advertising work. Reserve it for named recipients, key clients, top performers, long-service milestones, and personalize it individually. Concretely: $49.50 each at 1-11, $30.69 at 500+.

Decoration options
The decoration method is chosen to match the substrate, which is why the mark is permanent rather than printed on top of it. Standard imprint area on this item is 3.15 in x 4.38 in.
Die Struck
The design is struck into metal with a custom die. Crisp raised and recessed relief in solid metal.
Best for
Medals, coins and lapel pins.
Color
Metal finish, optionally enamel-filled.
Printed Insert
A printed or sublimated disc is set into the recess of the piece. Full-color artwork inside a cast metal frame.
Best for
Medals and emblem holders where color is required.
Color
Full color.
Laser Engraving (back)
The reverse face is laser engraved. Personalization without disturbing the struck front face.
Best for
Medals with a standard front and individual backs.
Color
Substrate color.
Artwork requirements
- If the logo is only available as a bitmap, we need it at 300 dpi or better at final size, ideally on a transparent background.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- Type should be converted to curves or outlines, otherwise a missing font silently substitutes on our end.
Production schedule
| Artwork proof | 1 business day from receipt of usable art |
|---|---|
| Standard production | 3 to 5 business days after proof approval |
| Rush production | quoted per job, with the date confirmed in writing before you pay |
| Ground transit | 1 to 5 business days depending on destination |
Common uses
Championships and tournamentsBuilt for championships and tournaments. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Annual perpetual awardsA natural fit for annual perpetual awards, which is one of the settings this trophy cup was specified for.
Remote team welcome kitsShipped to a home address, which for a distributed team is the only physical touch the company gets.
Employee milestonesAnniversaries, promotions and retirements: the moments where a personalized object does what an email cannot.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
Safety and quality milestonesMarking a record that took every person on the floor to achieve, with something they can point at.
Event and conference giftingHanded to qualified conversations rather than to everyone, so the spend goes where the pipeline is.
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
Sports Leagues, Tournaments & Clubs
Sport needs volume, deadlines and a clear hierarchy of awards. The order arrives before the results do, which means engraving strategy is the real decision. Generic plates with a separate engraved insert let you produce early and personalize late, and that is usually the difference between hitting the date and missing it. At $49.50 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.
2
Education, Schools & Universities
Education buys in waves: orientation, homecoming, graduation, staff appreciation. Budgets are tight and quantities are large, which pushes toward mid-tier items ordered in volume. Alumni and donor gifting is the exception: that is where the spend per unit rises sharply, because the return is measured in gifts rather than impressions. Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed. Reserve it for named recipients: key clients, top performers, long service.
3
Weddings, Reunions & Milestone Events
Personal events are the one segment where the recipient genuinely wants the item personalized. The deadline is absolute in a way it is not in any other segment. A wedding does not move, which means production scheduling, not selection, is where these orders fail. Lock artwork six weeks out and the rest is straightforward. This is a shortlist item. Individual personalisation is expected at this level.
4
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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. $49.50 before breaks buys something that stays on a desk for years.

What do buyers ask about CMC201G?
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. CMC201G sells from a single unit at $49.50, the first rung of its published ladder, so a sample is simply a normal order. A decorated single piece goes through the same proof as a full run.
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 you work to a fixed in-hand date?
Yes, and it is the right way to brief us. Tell us the date the box has to be open rather than the date you want it shipped, and checkout works the schedule backwards from there. It refuses a date it cannot keep rather than accepting it and missing it. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.
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 does it actually cost at quantity?
Most orders land near 48-95, which prices at $39.60 a piece. The published ladder on CMC201G runs from $49.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $30.69 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
How should this be cared for?
Wipe with a soft dry cloth. Avoid abrasives, which cut through plating. CMC201G measures 8 3/4" 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.
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 3.15 in x 4.38 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
What is the minimum order for CMC201G?
CMC201G can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on CMC201G runs from $49.50 a piece at 1-11 down to $30.69 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on CMC201G is 3.15 in x 4.38 in.
