~3–4 weeks after approvalNot a Generic Coin Shop
ShieldBox has shipped duty gear to officers every month since 2018, and we were founded by a law enforcement officer. Our coin artists also design the collectible coins in the Precinct Collectors Club, so they know what officers actually want to carry.
We know the difference between a shoulder patch and a department seal, why the badge number has to be exact, and how a memorial coin should feel in the hand. You'll work with people who get it, not a ticket queue.
What Drives the Price
Every coin is quoted to your exact design, so you only pay for what you choose. Here's what moves the number.
Quantity
The biggest factor. Orders start at 50 coins, and per-coin price drops significantly at 100, 250 and 500+ as setup costs spread across the order.
Size
1.75" is the most popular. Larger coins use more metal and cost a bit more each.
Shape
Round is the most economical. Shields, stars and custom die-cut shapes need a custom mold.
Colors
The number of enamel colors affects price. We can Pantone-match your department colors.
Finish & Edge
Gold, silver, copper, black nickel, black metal or antique plating, plus rope, spur, cross-cut diamond, flatweave or oblique edges.
Deadline
Standard turnaround keeps cost down. Need it for a ceremony? Tell us the date and we'll tell you what's possible.

Do I need finished artwork?
No. Upload whatever you have, like a patch photo, department logo or a sketch on a napkin, or just describe what you want. Our coin artists handle the design and send you a proof to review.
Can you use our department patch or seal?
Yes. Upload a clear photo or file of your patch, seal or badge and we'll recreate it in full coin detail. For orders featuring an agency's official insignia, we may confirm the order is coming from an authorized member of the department.
Can our department pay with a purchase order or tax-exempt status?
Let us know in your request. We regularly work with agencies and will work with your department's purchasing process.
Do you make coins for fire, EMS and military units too?
Yes. While we're built around law enforcement, our artists design coins for fire departments, EMS agencies, military units and first responder organizations of all kinds.
Can I make changes after I see the proof?
Absolutely. Nothing goes into production until you approve the proof. Request changes and we'll revise it until it's right.
