Crew Dragon Demo-2 Coin

Crew Dragon Demo-2, officially named Crew Demo-2, SpaceX Demo-2, or Demonstration Mission-2, was the first crewed test flight of the Crew Dragon spacecraft. After the Space Shuttle program was brought to an end in 2011, NASA no longer had a spacecraft system capable of sending humans to space, and The Demo-2 mission was expected to be SpaceX’s last major test before NASA certified it for regular crewed spaceflights.

The Demo-2 mission was the first launch with astronauts of the SpaceX Crew Dragon spacecraft and Falcon 9 rocket to the International Space Station as part of the agency’s Commercial Crew Program. The test flight served as an end-to-end demonstration of SpaceX’s crew transportation system.

We were contacted by SpaceX to build a custom challenge coin for that special event. You’d expect a modern and contemporary design being used on a coin for a rocket tech company like Space X. The concept design was full of colors and graphic design with the spacecraft launch theme.

The coin has an image of an astronot on one side, and the logo of the Demo-2 on the other. Both of them has thin lines as outlines, so we had to make sure that the digital design that we ran through our computerized machinery could read it and construct them well. You can see that the result was a superb challenge coin.
