U.S. Navy QMC Challenge Coin

A US Navy QMC is a Chief Petty Officer in the quartermaster rating. Quartermasters (QMs) are the experts in shipboard navigation, including operating and maintaining the ship’s navigational equipment. They usually report to the ship’s Navigator, normally a junior officer. In many navies, a quartermaster is an officer with particular responsibility for steering and signals.

Navy quartermasters are petty officers, which means they are non-commissioned officers who report directly to a commanding officer. The Quartermaster is also responsible for acquiring and distributing the correct quantities of supplies to Army personnel. In this role, they coordinate both aerial and land delivery of required supplies such as food, water, material goods, and fuel.

We had a chance to build a custom coin challenge for a U.S. Navy Quartermaster officer. The coin was one-of-a-kind because it didn’t have the shape of a common round coin, but it was sculpted like a ship’s helm. They also requested that we could put an illustration of the officer, and also the United States Navy’s insignia on the center of the coin.

Our cutting-edge equipment could create any shape that was designed and prepared by our experienced graphic designers. The coin took the details found on a wooden ship’s steering wheel. You can see the details in the photos to the right.
