What is the Torch Starbrite Medal-Bronze, 2 3/4"?
Torch Starbrite Medal-Bronze, 2 3/4" (SB258B): a medal where Die-cast zinc alloy with a plated finish does most of the work. It measures 2 3/4". 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.
Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches.
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: $3.60 each at 1-11, $2.23 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.
- 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.
- Convert all type to outlines so fonts do not substitute in production.
- Send vector if you have it. A .ai, .eps, .pdf or .svg scales to any imprint without softening.
Production schedule
| Digital proof | Same or next business day |
|---|---|
| Standard run | 3 to 5 business days once the proof is signed off |
| Rush run | quoted per job once the proof is signed off, with the date confirmed in writing |
| Delivery | 1 to 5 business days on the ground network |
Common uses
Races and tournamentsWorks well for races and tournaments, where the medal format does what a printed handout cannot.
School achievementSchool achievement is where this earns its cost, and where buyers re-order it.
Participation recognitionWorks well for participation recognition, where the medal format does what a printed handout cannot.
Renewal and retention giftsTimed to the contract date rather than the calendar, which is when the recipient is actually paying attention.
Fundraising and donor recognitionThanking the people who gave, in a form that quietly encourages the next person to.
Executive and board giftingShort lists, individual personalization, and a piece that survives scrutiny.
Sponsorship and partner thanksGiven to the people who funded or enabled the work, in a form they can keep visible.
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. Medals scale to hundreds of recipients at a cost per person that no other award form matches. Volume is the point at $3.60; nobody is auditing this line item.
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. Artwork is struck into the die, or applied as a printed or sublimated insert set into the recess. Cost per impression is the number that matters here, and it is very low.
3
Government, Military & First Responders
This segment is precise about protocol and unforgiving about quality. Procurement documentation often takes longer than production. Quotes with fixed validity periods, documented lead times and clear line-item pricing move faster through approval than a better price presented informally. The medal format earns its place here on keep-rate rather than headline price. Cheap enough to over-order slightly, which is the right call for a table.
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. At this price the risk is under-ordering, not over-ordering.

What do buyers ask about SB258B?
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 SB258B is 1.65 in x 1.24 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.
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.

Do you keep this item in stock?
Yes. The warehouse shows 658 of SB258B 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 if the artwork does not fit the imprint area?
The personalization area on SB258B is 1.65 in x 1.24 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.
Is there a setup charge?
No. Setup is free on every order at every quantity. Art preparation, machine setup and your digital proof are built into the price, with nothing added for them later. Engraving is a separate line, shown per quantity in the cost table on this page, so the all-in figure is visible before checkout.
