The M87 Galaxy Medallion is inspired by Messier 87, one of the most massive galaxies in the observable universe and the site of the first ever photographed black hole. The design captures the cosmic scale and quiet power of a galaxy that has been burning for billions of years, brought down to the intimacy of a 35mm medallion. The universe is full of moments that are impossible to hold. This medallion is a way to bring one of them down to a scale you can carry in your pocket.

The M87 Galaxy Medallion is cast, not stamped, starting from raw Silver .999 Fine, Copper, or Nordic Gold (CuAlZnSn) before a two-stage CNC pass (rough clearing, then fine detail) brings the relief to its full 3mm depth. After machining, each 35mm piece is weighed individually and precision cut to an exact 2.5oz target, no piece skipped. Up to 16 characters can be hand stamped on the back on request, and every piece is sealed with clear lacquer before it ships, free within the US, in 5-7 business days.

A lot of makers will tell you their pieces are heavy or substantial. Few will tell you they weigh and precision cut every single one to an exact target, because few actually do it. This shop does, and it does only this: cast, CNC-machined metal medallions, with no other product lines pulling attention away from getting this one thing right.
