Souvenir coins offer a fun and affordable way for tourists to bring home a piece of their travel experience. They can be a unique and memorable keepsake, reminding visitors of the places they’ve explored and the memories they’ve created during their travels.

The designs on tourist attraction coins often depict images related to the place they are obtained from. These images can include famous landmarks, historical sites, wildlife, or symbols that represent the attraction.

Collecting these coins is a popular hobby for tourists. Each coin serves as a unique memento of the places visited, and enthusiasts often keep them in special albums or display cases.

Commonly, souvenir coins can be found in gift shops located in or near tourist attractions. Our company had custom souvenir coins for tourist attractions and gift shops for 20 years. Below are the most popular souvenir coin types.

1. Gold or silver color coin with tourist attractions’ famous landmarks design on it.

2. Antique color coin with landmarks on it. Antique brass and antique gold color are very popular.

3. Soft enamel coin with a unique design on it. The term “soft enamel” refers to the coloring process used on the coin. Soft enamel coins have recessed areas where the colored enamel is applied. After the enamel is added, it is left to air dry, which creates a slightly raised surface and a textured feel when touched.

4. Color Printed coin with famous tourist attractions on it. When the design is too complicated or with gradient color, color print is the best way to produce the coin.
