Read MoreNational Guard pins serve as visual symbols of a member's identity, accomplishments, and commitment to the values and mission of the National Guard, fostering a sense of pride and unity among its members.

National Guard pins are specific insignias worn by members of the United States National Guard to represent various ranks, units, achievements, and affiliations within the organization. Similar to other military branches, these pins can denote an individual's rank, specialized role, or specific awards and decorations earned during service.

The National Guard creates special qualification pins to recognize and honor specific skills, training, and expertise that members have achieved within their service. These pins may include Aviator Pins for qualified pilots, Medical Qualification Pins for those in medical roles, Parachutist Pins for airborne-trained personnel, and Marksmanship Pins for excellence in shooting. Other examples might encompass Combat Action Pins for engagement in direct combat, Engineer Qualification Pins for specialized engineering roles, and Military Police Pins for law enforcement duties within the National Guard. These pins not only symbolize individual mastery and commitment to excellence but also contribute to the overall identity, cohesion, and effectiveness of the unit, reflecting the diverse capabilities and specialized roles that are integral to the National Guard's mission.
Unit insignia pins in the National Guard are crafted to represent specific units, divisions, or brigades within the organization. These pins often bear unique symbols, emblems, or mottos that encapsulate the mission, history, and values of the particular unit. For example, an armored division might have a pin featuring a tank, while an aviation unit might incorporate wings or a helicopter into its design. The wearing of these pins fosters a sense of identity, pride, and camaraderie among the members of the unit, reinforcing the bonds that tie them together. Overall, unit insignia pins serve as visual reminders of a shared purpose and commitment, reflecting the specialized roles and collective heritage that characterize the diverse landscape of the National Guard.
Commemorative and Association Pins within the National Guard are designed to celebrate significant events, anniversaries, battles, or affiliations with specific National Guard associations or veteran organizations. Commemorative pins may mark milestones such as the founding of a particular unit, significant historical events, or participation in specific missions or campaigns. Association pins, on the other hand, may signify membership in various National Guard associations, societies, or veteran groups, fostering a sense of community and shared experience. These pins often feature unique designs, incorporating symbols, dates, or imagery that resonate with the particular commemoration or association they represent. Worn with pride, Commemorative and Association Pins serve as tangible connections to the heritage, traditions, and enduring bonds that characterize the National Guard, reinforcing a sense of identity and continuity among both current and former members.

My designer Nicole far exceeded my expectations of my original coin design and created a product that is far superior than any other military coin I have had made in the past. This coin is Outstanding and all of my military buddies say it looks amazing!!! Thanks so very much Nicole, you are a true All-Star!!! MAJ Snyder
The service, from beginning to end, has been matchless and extraordinarily professional. The caliber of service clearly matches the caliber of the product. This company also has a very talented design team in place who knows exactly what they are doing. Bottom line, they're not dealing with such high end clients for no reason. That said, I am a very small business just getting started yet they've always made me feel like a very high end client. That says it all. The finished product is so impressive.
I had a really great experience, from beginning to end. I designed my own cards, which needed a few revisions, and the artist & service area were both very nice to work with, and quite patient. Each and every service person that I corresponded with was so helpful. The end product was absolutely gorgeous, and the responses I'm receiving to them is wonderful. Highly recommended!
This is my fifth year to use your company for Fiesta Medals for us to hand out. Each year has been great. The work has been great and so have the people that we dealt with. I haven't received our medals yet for this year, but looking at the proof, I can't wait to receive. We had more details and they look perfect on the proof. Thank you so much, we look forward to doing more business with you in the years to come.
Everything about the experience was incredible! I had so many questions along the way and had a wonderful response time for each inquiry. The pins turned out beautifully and we were lucky enough to get some great deals for upgrades! Thank you so much for a wonderful experience. We leave for our big trip to Cooperstown Dreams Park on July 6, 2018!
Great Experience! Design and price were great! Pins arrived on time and the entire staff was awesome! Would highly recommend and we will use for all of our teams!

For soft enamel, you will be able to feel the ridges of the metal separating the colors. For hard enamel, you will have more of a smooth, polished look. For offset printed, we print directly onto the metal and there is a epoxy dome over the top of the pin.
Die struck pins have the designs transferred to a front & back (optional) mold, the raw iron or brass being struck by each mold with enough force to transfer both the raised & recessed areas of the design into the pin metal. Die-Cast molds are fit together and molten zinc metal is injected into the die to create the pin.
We will keep your mold on stock for 3 years. If you need more pins we can easily remake them for you.
Your pins could be made out of brass, iron, or zinc, depending on design, budget, and aesthetic preferences. When options present themselves we’ll work with you to determine your best option.
