What is the Leaf 2" Insert Holder Medal-Antique Gold (Insert Not Incuded)?
This medal is made from die-cast zinc alloy with a plated finish. It measures 2 3/4". This is the gold colorway.
In practice: 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.
Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. On this substrate specifically: artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess.
Treat this as reach inventory. The point of the tier is that you can put one in every hand at an event without the total ever becoming a conversation with finance. Concretely: $4.60 each at 1-11, $2.85 at 500+.

Artwork requirements
- Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
- A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- A 300 dpi raster at the actual imprint dimensions will run cleanly. Anything pulled from a web page usually will not.
- We send a digital proof for written approval before production starts. Nothing goes on a machine until you sign it off.
- Send the file you have, even if it is imperfect. We will tell you honestly whether it will hold up and redraw it if it 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.
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. Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. 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. 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. Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. 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. Protocol governs the object. Placement of insignia, order of precedence on a plaque and the wording of a commendation are conventions rather than preferences, and getting them wrong is the one error this segment does not overlook. The medal format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Volume is the point at $4.60; nobody is auditing this line item.
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. Cost per impression is the number that matters here, and it is very low.
