Adding Thickness to Cut Out Challenge Coins Helps Them Maintain a Nice Weight

Posted by Signature Coins | Thursday January 13th, 2011 | Topic: Custom Challenge Coins

If you’re looking for a cut out challenge coin design that looks great and has a weightiness about it, consider increasing its thickness.  Remember that a heavier coin retains its value better because people perceive it to be worth more than something that weighs less.  This significantly impacts a person’s belief about an object especially when it is held in their hands.

Higher Perceived Value Than Other Items

An individual can look at the challenge coin, gauge its mass, and formulate an opinion as to whether or not it is something worth taking interest in.  Items that are made from heavier materials are believed to be more durable and therefore longer lasting.  That is one of the reasons why custom challenge coins remain popular today.  In fact, groups of all types have found uses for them in their personal and professional lives.
