Some collections tell a story that goes beyond the coins themselves. This one lets you tell that story—with personal items, meaningful mementos, and a custom design that's as unique as the service it honors.
This custom river challenge coin holder is an upgraded version of our live edge fractal burned displays—featuring a resin "river" inlay that can encapsulate challenge coins and personal items you provide. We'll preserve them in crystal-clear resin alongside our signature fractal burn patterns, creating a one-of-a-kind tribute.
The live edge wood preserves the tree's natural contour on both sides, while the resin river runs through the center, holding your items in place and creating a stunning visual contrast. Choose your resin color to honor your branch or department—blue for police, red for fire department, branch-specific colors for military, or any color that holds meaning for you. Custom engraving is included—we'll add names, ranks, or messages directly into the wood.
Available in two sizes:
  • Regular (16" x 16" x 3") - Perfect for desk or shelf display
  • Large (26" x 16" x 3") - Ideal for extensive collections
