Custom Made Medals

Is there any better symbol of achievement that stands out better than a medal? A medal not only serves as a reminder of success, but it is something that can be worn proudly and passed down to future generations. Medals can be awarded for success in athletics, academics, military and many more efforts.

History of Medals

The first documented use of a medal was in the 4th century BCE. Alexander the Great offered a golden button as a gift to a prominent Jewish high priest. Throughout time, the use of custom medals shifted to being a symbol of importance and wealth. During the Middle Ages, the powerful made custom medals which were embossed with their portraits. These medals served as gifts, but more importantly they told others of an alliance with the person on the medal.

Militaries around the world created custom medals to signify achievement and service to their country, this tradition is still very much alive today. Higher ranking military officials proudly decorate their uniforms with medals gained from a vast amount of achievements.

Medals for athletic achievements are one of the more common uses for creating custom medals. Gold, silver and bronze medals have been goals for athletes since the 1904 Summer Olympics in St. Louis.
