Custom Military Challenge Coin Bottle Openers
Military Challenge Coin Bottle Opener: A New Twist on a Classic Collectible
By now you probably know that custom challenge coins can be made in any form, shape, size or finish. Did you know that many of our custom coins are also minted as challenge coin bottle openers? As military challenge coins spread to more private applications – as giveaways, rewards, membership icons – our customers are looking for new and innovative ways to make their coins functional and unique. One way is to have a piece made that actually serves as a bottle opener. They are quite the conversation starter!

Our artists study both design aesthetics and the mechanics that let a coin pop a cap repeatedly without bending. A small cut-out or recessed edge is milled into the coin, giving the opener the leverage it needs while keeping your artwork intact. Key specs we dial in on every order:
- bevel angle for smooth placement under the cap,
- overall thickness for long-term strength,
- opening width matched to standard bottle caps, and
- reinforced edging to prevent bending after repeated use.

Our customers count on Challenge Coins Limited for specialty pieces like bottle openers because we cast every coin in solid brass for heft you can feel, then finish and ship in 10 days or less. We’ll turn your logo into a tool that pops caps night after night without warping. You might choose to display it instead of using it — either way, the opener is ready whenever duty calls. You can order as few as 50 opener coins, and you won’t pay a dime until you approve the artwork. Every project comes with:
- complimentary digital proof and unlimited revisions,
- guidance from a six-artist design team, and
- production in 10 days or less.


When your shipment arrives, you’ll have a coin that feels tailor-made because it was. Challenge coins have long marked unity and pride across every branch of the Armed Forces. It’s a tradition to reward exemplary service with a coin from a respected leader — an honor that carries lifelong meaning. Our bottle-opener coins keep that tradition alive while adding a practical twist you can use every day.
Many people collect challenge coins for their historical value, personal meaning, and interesting designs. Challenge coins can be displayed on the wall or in a showcase, but that can make them a little difficult to show off. Our high-quality challenge coin bottle openers, on the other hand, are an exciting way to show your pride. They are durable and designed with both style and functionality in mind, while still honoring the challenge coin tradition.
These custom challenge coin bottle openers are a high quality collectible that can be used every day. These pieces are not only visually striking and functionally reliable, but they also serve as meaningful keepsakes that honor tradition while sparking conversations about service and achievement. Our bottle openers can be made for any branch of the United States Armed Forces, group or occasion. And we can produce as few as 50 custom bottle openers per design, making it a great keepsake for any size group or unit.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is a Military Challenge Coin Bottle Opener?
A challenge coin bottle opener is a solid-metal coin that keeps the look and feel of a traditional military challenge coin but includes a built-in lip or cutout that lets you pop the cap off glass bottles. It honors your unit’s history, sparks conversation, and works whenever you need it.
What Is the Minimum Order for Custom Bottle Openers?
You can order as few as 50 custom bottle openers for each design.
How Long Does Production and Shipping Take?
Once you approve your artwork, most custom bottle openers ship in about two weeks and arrive at U.S. addresses in three to five business days. Larger or highly detailed orders may take a bit longer. Call us today at 1-800-818-3229 for an exact timeline.
Which Metals and Finishes Can I Choose?
We mint your opener in durable brass or zinc alloy, then plate it in the finish you like best—antique gold, antique silver, polished gold, polished silver, black nickel, or a dual-tone mix. You can add soft or hard enamel colors, 3-D sculpting, and laser engraving for extra detail.
Can I See a Free Design Proof Before I Pay?
Absolutely. We email you a full-color digital proof at no charge, and you can request unlimited changes until it’s perfect. You don’t owe anything until you approve the final art.
Will Opening Bottles Scratch or Bend My Coin?
No. We bevel the opener edge to shield your design, and the coin’s solid-metal body is thick enough to handle hundreds of bottles without bending. Keep it dry after use to preserve the finish.
