Custom Minting
Custom Coins & Packaging
Where Your Legacy Meets our Craftsmanship.
At Beaverworks Mint, we don’t just mint coins—we bring stories to life through fine silver and gold. Whether you’re commemorating a historic moment, honouring a legacy, or creating a one-of-a-kind gift, our custom coin services give you the power to immortalize your vision with craftsmanship worthy of Canada’s finest.
Fully Custom Design
We offer complete in-house design, sculpting, engraving, and finishing services. From the first sketch to final strike, every detail is shaped with purpose—reflecting your heritage, brand, or story with precision and pride.
Premium Materials
Choose from .9999 fine silver or gold, all sourced from trusted and reputable bullion dealers. We only work with the highest-purity metals, and every ounce can be traced back to its origin. Serial numbers of the bullion bars used in your project are provided for transparency and provenance.
Bespoke Packaging
Our coins deserve presentation that matches their quality. We offer custom display slabs, luxury boxes, and engraved metal or acrylic inserts—tailored to match the style and message of your coin. Whether you want minimalist elegance or something boldly thematic, we’ll craft the perfect housing.
Ultra-Low Mintage, Ultra-High Impact
We specialize in short-run, ultra-premium mintage. If you want just 10 coins made—or even just one—we can do it. Every coin is struck multiple times for stunning high relief and mirror-quality surfaces. Each one is personally inspected and remade if not flawless.
Lifetime Guarantee
If anything ever happens to your custom coin—scratched, damaged, even broken in half—as long as the metal is returned to us, we’ll remake it. All you pay is shipping, insurance, and handling.
We exist to build objects of meaning and beauty. If that’s what you need—let’s talk.

Family Heritage
When asked whether a business could create its own corporate maple coin, Beaverworks Mint founder Joseph didn’t just say yes—he proved it.
Over Christmas, his cousin Darren, a proud rancher and entrepreneur, asked for a coin to honour his family farm. Joseph immediately understood the weight of that request.
“I dropped everything,” he said. “This wasn’t just about silver—it was about legacy.”
Beaverworks Mint took on the full creative process: designing, sculpting, engraving, and striking a 1 oz coin from .9999 fine silver, refined by the Royal Canadian Mint. But it wasn’t complete until it was housed in custom-designed packaging—something Joseph believes is essential.
“A coin without proper packaging is like an engine misfiring—it’s incomplete,” he said.
From concept to completion, this coin became a powerful symbol of pride, loyalty, and craftsmanship—everything a great corporate gift should be.
A Voice Admired
Before Darren’s family farm coin ever came to be, he approached Beaverworks Mint with a unique request: to create a one-of-a-kind coin dedicated to his favorite podcaster, Shaun Newman.
“Shaun is quickly becoming a strong and reasonable voice for Canadians and for the military veterans community,” said Green. “When Darren asked me to make a coin for him, I dropped everything. It was important.”
In less than a week, Green designed the coin, sculpted the dies, created the custom packaging, and struck a limited number of coins—all to be presented as a personal gift from Darren to Shaun, in recognition of the podcast’s long-form interviews that resonate deeply with Canadians across the country. He was in such a rush, that he didn’t remember to photograph the finished coins that featured his logo and the Maple Leaf on the Obverse side.
When Shaun visited the mint studio in Alberta, he was stunned to discover an operation of such scale and craftsmanship hidden away. During the early days of his podcasting journey, Shaun had explored the idea of having his own commemorative coin made, possibly as a fundraiser. Despite interest from a primary sponsor in the bullion industry, he was advised to abandon the idea entirely—it would be too expensive, too complicated, and couldn’t be done in Canada.
But Beaverworks Mint exists to challenge those assumptions.
“We never advertised, never promoted,” said Green. “We’ve been deep in development—solving problems and building something that could do what people said was impossible.”
Shaun had no idea Beaverworks Mint even existed until Darren brought him into the fold. Green immediately threw himself into the project, putting in 18-hour days to meet the deadline without compromising the quality. “It wasn’t just about making a good coin—it had to be presented right,” said Green. “The packaging had to hit just as hard.”
Although their UV printer began to act up midway through production, the Beaverworks team managed to finish the custom packaging and strike 10 coins. With no feedback on design and little time to spare, they adopted a “best guess” approach and committed fully.
Shaun later returned with his team for a second visit, and it was during these moments—when he held the coin made in his honour—that the true power of the project revealed itself.
“It’s rare to witness someone see a coin made for them for the very first time,” Green said. “Those reactions—that’s why we do this.”
Custom Coins & Packaging
The Beaverworks Standard
At Beaverworks Mint, minting custom coins isn’t just a service—it’s an artistic collaboration rooted in reverence, precision, and pride. Every coin we create is treated as a work of art, not just a product. It must stand the test of time, carry the weight of meaning, and strike the soul with beauty and purpose.
As a Canadian artist with a lifelong dedication to this country as the central praxis of his creative philosophy, Joseph Green sees the maple leaf not just as a national symbol, but as a sacred icon. “To say I have a creative love affair with the maple leaf is an understatement,” he says. “Canada is my home—the True North, Strong and Free.”
One moment that still resonates deeply with Green is from a reunion with members of Operation Apollo, a rare honour bestowed upon someone who never served in the Canadian Forces. A soldier, beer in hand, raised his voice in proud defiance: “YOU WERE BORN FREE AND I KEEP IT THAT WAY!” These words now echo through everything we do at Beaverworks Mint. They are a daily reminder that freedom, legacy, and pride must be cast into every creation. Our work exists not only to mark the moment but to preserve it for generations.
Why Mint With Us
Beaverworks Mint isn’t a factory. It’s a studio, a forge, and an extension of a practicing artist whose tools include fire, steel, and legacy. Each coin is a symbol of your story, your ethos, and your purpose—treated with the same reverence we give our own national icons.
We don’t compromise. We don’t cut corners. And we don’t mint junk.
We specialize in:
One-of-a-kind fine art coins in silver, gold, platinum, and more
Custom designs and sculpting tailored to your vision
Complete die creation and engraving in-house
Striking and finishing with the highest tolerances for quality
Professional-grade packaging, from simple capsules to elaborate presentation boxes
Select plating and full-colour UV printing
We also offer more accessible options like challenge coins using outsourced blanks if your needs or budget lean that way.
Custom coins are not cheap. Steel dies alone are a significant investment. But the beauty of coinage is that over time, the per-unit cost drops with scale. Whether you want a single art coin or a run of hundreds, we can scale accordingly without sacrificing quality.
The Beaverworks Standard
This is minting with meaning. With mastery. With pride.
If you want a coin that reflects who you are, what you stand for, and what you value, we can help you bring it into the world. And when it emerges, it won’t just sit on a shelf. It will stand as a legacy in metal, struck to last, echoing across generations.
“You may not share my sentiments,” Green says, “but the coins minted here are imbued with that sense of maple pride—and the echo of that soldier’s thunderous voice.”
