What is the Silver Metal Cup-9 3/4", Style CMC302S?
Silver Metal Cup-9 3/4", Style CMC302S. A trophy cup in zinc alloy, specified for decoration and for daily use rather than for a display shelf. It measures 9 3/4". This is the silver 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.
The piece stays on a desk for years, which is the whole return. Choose recipients the way you would choose who to take to dinner. Concretely: $72.00 each at 1-11, $44.64 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 4.88 in.
Die Struck
The design is struck into metal with a custom die. Crisp raised and recessed relief in solid metal.
Medals, coins and lapel pins.
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.
Medals and emblem holders where color is required.
Full color.
Laser Engraving (back)
The reverse face is laser engraved. Personalization without disturbing the struck front face.
Medals with a standard front and individual backs.
Substrate color.
Artwork requirements
- Raster artwork should be at least 300 dpi at the finished imprint size, on a transparent or white background.
- If brand color accuracy matters, give us the Pantone numbers rather than a screenshot to match.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
- Vector files are the safe option. They hold their edges whether the mark runs at an inch or a foot.
- Vector artwork (.ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg) reproduces best at every size and is what we ask for first.

|---|---|

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.
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. Decoration holds up in this setting, which is where cheaper substrates fail. Executive tier. Treat the engraving as carefully as the invoice.
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. An imprint area of 1.2 in x 4.88 in is enough for a logo and a line of text without crowding. Even at volume it holds $44.64, which tells you what tier this is.
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. Spend it where the relationship is worth more than the invoice.
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. At $72.00 before breaks this is relationship work, not advertising.

What do buyers ask about CMC302S?
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.
What if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on CMC302S is 1.2 in x 4.88 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.
How is this decorated?
Die Struck is the primary method on CMC302S. 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 CMC302S is 1.2 in x 4.88 in.
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 1.2 in x 4.88 in personalization area and tell you before you pay whether it holds up at that size.
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.
Can I get a sample before committing?
Yes: order one piece. CMC302S sells from a single unit at $72.00, 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 keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 148 of CMC302S 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.
What is the minimum order for CMC302S?
There is no minimum beyond one piece on CMC302S. 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 CMC302S runs from $72.00 a piece at 1-11 down to $44.64 at 500+, about 38% less per piece.
