What is the Music High Relief Medal-Bronze?

A working medal. Die-cast zinc alloy with a plated finish. It measures 2". This is the bronze 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.

Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. The two together are why this item re-orders.

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: $2.90 each at 1-11, $1.80 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 1.2 in x 1 in.

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

Best for

Medals with a standard front and individual backs.

Color

Substrate color.

Artwork requirements

  • Supply Pantone (PMS) references for any color that has to match exactly.
  • If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
  • Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.
  • Nothing is produced before you approve a proof in writing. That is a hard rule, not a courtesy.
  • 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.
  • A digital proof comes back to you first, every time. Production starts on your written approval and not before.

Common uses

Races and tournamentsSpecified regularly for races and tournaments. The imprint area at 1.2 in x 1 in is sized for exactly that job.
School achievementBuilt for school achievement. That is the use case the format was designed around, not one retrofitted to it.
Participation recognitionWorks well for participation recognition, where the medal format does what a printed handout cannot.
Executive and board giftingShort lists, individual personalization, and a piece that survives scrutiny.
Team and department awardsRecognizing a group without the cost or ceremony of individual crystal for every person.
Fundraising and donor recognitionThanking the people who gave, in a form that quietly encourages the next person to.
Client thank-you programsSent after a renewal, a referral or a project close, when the relationship is warm and the gesture will land.
Booth and trade show handoutsThe item that gives someone a reason to stop walking, and a reason to remember which booth it came from.

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

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. Order deep. At this price the waste of a few extra is cheaper than running short.

2

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. Die casting captures far finer relief detail than stamping, so medals and heavier emblem pieces are cast rather than pressed. Volume is the point at $2.90; nobody is auditing this line item.

3

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.

4

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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.

What do buyers ask about HR785B?

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.

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 HR785B runs from $2.90 a piece at 1-11 down to $1.80 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.

Can I see a proof before you produce the order?

Yes, and nothing runs until you have signed it off. Read it properly rather than skimming, because the approved proof is the specification we produce against. Standard production is 3 to 5 business days after proof approval, then 1 to 5 business days of ground transit.

What does it actually cost at quantity?

The published ladder on HR785B runs from $2.90 a piece at 1-11 down to $1.80 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. Price breaks on this item fall at 1-11, 12-23, 24-47, 48-95, 96-249, 250-499, 500+. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout. Ground freight is free on orders over $250.

What artwork do you need from me?

Send vector if it exists, raster at 300 dpi if it does not, and whatever you have if neither. The personalization area on HR785B is 1.2 in x 1 in, and we redraw or re-proportion anything that will not survive it. A free digital proof comes back within one business day of usable artwork, and nothing is produced until you approve it in writing.

What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?

The personalization area on HR785B is 1.2 in x 1 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.

Can I get a sample before committing?

Yes: order one piece. HR785B sells from a single unit at $2.90, 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.

What is the minimum order for HR785B?

HR785B can be ordered from a single piece. The published ladder on HR785B runs from $2.90 a piece at 1-11 down to $1.80 at 500+, about 38% less per piece. There is no setup fee at any quantity. The personalization area on HR785B is 1.2 in x 1 in.
