Get Your Free Quote View the GalleryChallenge coins have been a tradition in the Canadian Armed Forces for decades - and that tradition carries through to the cadet program. Today, Commanding Officers, squadron leaders, and corps staff across Canada use custom coins to recognise achievement, mark milestones, and build unit pride.
Whether you are ordering a CO presentation coin, a corps anniversary coin, or a squadron identity coin for your cadets, Strike Your Coin will design and produce it for you - at no charge for artwork, with no hidden fees, and with as many revisions as it takes to get it right.
Army cadet corps order coins for Commanding Officer presentations, corps anniversaries, excellence awards, and unit identity. We have produced coins featuring the RCAC maple leaf badge, regimental crests, and custom designs for individual corps across Ontario and beyond.
Air cadet squadrons use coins to mark CO presentations, squadron milestones, and leadership recognition. We have made coins for squadrons like 75 RCACS Barrhaven featuring full squadron insignia, soft enamel in air cadet blue and white, and polished gold finishes.
Sea cadet corps order coins with naval crests, anchor imagery, rope-edge borders, and bilingual inscriptions. We have produced coins for corps including RCSCC Woodstock, RCSCC Victory, RCSCC Falkland, and HMCS Prevost - in antique silver, polished gold, and two-tone finishes.

The most common order. COs present coins to cadets, staff, and guests as recognition of outstanding service, exceptional performance, or a meaningful contribution to the corps. We design CO coins to carry the corps identity and feel like something worth earning.
Milestones like 25th, 50th, or 75th anniversaries deserve something lasting. We specialise in anniversary coins that incorporate founding year, current year, and the corps' full history in the design.
Presented for top performance, leadership courses, competition results, or completion of a significant training milestone.
Some corps order coins simply to represent their unit - a coin that any member, cadet or officer, can carry with pride.
A coin that marks the transition between outgoing and incoming COs - often presented at the ceremony as a keepsake for both.
The most popular choice for RCAC and RCACS coins. Vibrant colour sits in recessed areas beneath raised gold metal borders, creating the layered look that defines a classic challenge coin.
Preferred for a more heritage-oriented look - common for long-standing corps and anniversary pieces. The antique finish gives it gravitas.
A sharp modern look popular with sea cadet corps and CO coins. Black nickel background with polished gold raised elements creates high contrast and a premium feel.
For corps with complex crests or badges - like regimental star badges or detailed heraldic imagery - 3D relief adds real depth and dimension. The coin becomes a miniature sculpture.
Adds a fine-jewellery touch to the coin edge. Common for honorary coins and senior presentation pieces.
