2D vs. 3D Challenge Coins: What Is the Difference?

When designing custom challenge coins, one of the most critical decisions you will make is choosing between 2D and 3D designs. While both styles create stunning, durable keepsakes, they offer vastly different tactile experiences and visual depths. The 2 coins on the right are 2Ds, and the 2 coins on the left are 3Ds. 

Sandblasting

In custom challenge coins, a premium manufacturing technique creates a distinct, textured matte finish on a coin’s recessed metal background. By blasting the metal base with fine abrasive particles (like sand or glass beads) before plating, factories achieve a grainy texture that contrasts sharply with the raised, highly polished details
