Wholesale Custom Antique Bronze Fantasy Coin
What exactly is this product? It is a custom antique bronze fantasy coin featuring the satirical design of "One Million Rubles" — a funny money themed collectible medal that looks and feels like a real historical currency but with a humorous twist. Designed as a playful gift item, it appeals to anyone who dreams of being a millionaire, loves collecting novelty coins, or needs a unique addition to board games, escape room props, or corporate milestone celebrations.
This 1.5" (38 mm) diameter coin is cast from high-grade Zinc Alloy using precision die-cast embossing, giving it sharp, premium-grade relief details. At 3 mm thick and approximately 25 g per piece, it carries a satisfying heft that feels like a real commemorative coin. The entire surface receives an antique bronze patina finish, creating an aged, treasure-trove look that makes it feel like it was just unearthed from a 19th-century vault.
The design itself is richly layered. The top edge reads "ONE MILLION" in a curved arch. A finely detailed royal crown with a cross finial sits above the central numeral "1,000,000", which is framed on both sides by laurel wreath branches — a classic symbol of victory and wealth. Beneath the number are three circular portrait medallions featuring historical/royal profile heads. The bottom banner displays "RUBLES" in an arc, completing the mock-currency layout. The entire rim is reeded (fine serrated edge), reinforcing the authentic coin feel.
Key use cases where this coin performs well:
· Novelty gifts and gag presents — the perfect "millionaire" stocking stuffer or secret Santa item
· Board games and tabletop role-playing (Dungeons & Dragons, Call of Cthulhu, post-apocalyptic campaigns)
· Escape rooms and treasure hunt events — adds realism to puzzle props
· Company milestone commemoratives — celebrate hitting revenue goals or fundraising rounds
· Crypto/NFT conference swag — a tongue-in-cheek "physical currency" for digital asset events
· Financial industry giveaways — banks, investment firms, fintech startups use it as a conversation starter
· Alternative to red packets / envelopes — a more memorable cash-equivalent token
Is this material strong enough for regular handling? Yes. Zinc Alloy (zinc-based die-cast metal) has been the standard material for challenge coins, commemorative medals, and fantasy currency for decades. It strikes the right balance between rigidity, detail reproduction, and cost efficiency — which is why military challenge coins, casino tokens, and souvenir medals all use the same base material.
We use a proprietary Zinc Alloy formula with a hardness rating of approximately HRB 70-85 on the Rockwell B scale. This means the coin resists surface scratches and edge dings far better than soft metal alternatives like pewter or aluminum. Under normal handling conditions (display, pocket carry, game use), the design will not lose its detail — we have tested samples through 5,000+ handling cycles with no visible flattening on the highest relief areas.
The antique bronze patina is not a surface spray or paint layer — it is a chemically induced oxidation process that penetrates the top layer of the metal, creating a durable, colorfast finish. Unlike painted finishes that peel or chip after 6-12 months, this patina lasts the life of the coin. The operating temperature range is -30°C to +120°C, so the coin can be safely used in outdoor geocaching, festival swag bags, or even displayed in hot vehicle dashboards without warping or fading.
Certifications matter for wholesale buyers, especially when reselling in the EU or US markets. Every production batch is tested and certified compliant with:
· REACH Regulation (EC 1907/2006) — no hazardous substances above threshold limits
· RoHS Directive 2011/65/EU — lead, mercury, cadmium, and hexavalent chromium free
· ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management — production facility certified for consistent manufacturing standards
Compared to Soft PVC or plastic coins, this Zinc Alloy version offers a premium weight (25 g vs. 5-8 g for plastic), sharper detail reproduction (die-cast vs. injection mold), and an authentic metallic clink sound that plastic simply cannot replicate. For buyers who want a product that feels like real money, Zinc Alloy is the only choice.
Can I put my own logo or design on this coin? Absolutely — that is the whole point. We built this product around full customization. The "One Million Rubles" design is our stock template, but you have complete freedom to modify every visual element:

A 3D rendering preview is provided before tooling production begins — no commitment until you approve the virtual prototype.
How fast will you get your order, and will it arrive in good condition? We package every order with commercial shipping safety as the priority.
Individual polybagging — each coin sealed in its own clear polybag to prevent surface contact scratches. For bulk wholesale (500+ pieces), coins are packed in layers separated by foam sheets in a corrugated export carton. For premium retail orders, we offer rigid magnetic gift boxes with black velvet or satin inserts and optional custom branding on the box lid.
All cartons are double-walled with a burst strength of 200+ lbs per square inch. Each carton is taped with reinforced strapping bands. For air freight orders, we use moisture-barrier inner lining to protect the antique finish from condensation during flight.

|
|
|
Q: Can I customize the number and currency name on the coin? |
|
|
A: Yes. You can change both the denomination number (1,000,000 or any other figure) and the currency name (Rubles, Dollars, Euros, Pounds, Yen, etc.) to suit your theme. You can also replace all arc text including "ONE MILLION" and "RUBLES" with custom slogans, company names, or event messages. This requires new tooling and meets the 500-piece MOQ for custom design. |

|
|
|
Q: What surface finish options are available? |
|
|
A: We offer 5 standard surface finishes: Antique Bronze (most popular — aged patina look), Antique Gold, Bright Gold (polished), Bright Silver (mirror-like), and Matte (satin finish). All finishes are chemically treated for durability — not painted. Custom Pantone color matching for the metal surface is available upon request with a minimum order of 200 pieces. |

|
|
Q: Is this coin safe for children to handle? |
|
|
A: Yes. Our Zinc Alloy coins are manufactured to comply with REACH and RoHS standards, meaning no lead, cadmium, mercury, or other restricted heavy metals are used. The antique patina is a stable oxidation layer that does not rub off on hands. However, we recommend this product for ages 12+ due to small size and potential choking hazard for younger children. |
|

|
|
|
Q: Can I get the coin with a ribbon or display stand? |

A: Yes. We offer several accessory options: jump ring with custom printed ribbon (woven or satin, your color/logo), velvet drawstring pouch (velvet or satin, any color), acrylic display stand, and magnetic rigid gift box with foam insert (custom printable on lid). Each accessory has its own MOQ (200 pieces for ribbon, 100 pieces for pouch/box). |
