WHAT TO ENGRAVE?


I am frequently asked what most folks engrave on their medallions. The answer really is that there is no set rule - whatever suits you and your son or daughter is best. Listed below are some suggestions for engraving your Native Sons and Daughters Medallion.


The charge for engaving your medallion is $2.75 for the first line (either top or bottom) and $2.00 for the second line. You can have up to 48 letters and spaces per line, but if you keep it to 32 to 36 it will look best. When you exceed 32 the computer begins to squeeze the letters to make them all fit in the alloted space. By the time you get to 48 characters the letters are tall and skinny and hard to read.

When Little Eagle and I conceived the idea for our original medallion - back in 1971, we thought that having both parent and child's names on the medallion would make the keepsake more treasured in years to come - the whole idea behind the project - and most of our orders are engraved that way today. If you have not selected an Indian name yet, or if you have and are just curious, go to Indian Names You Can Use for some help.
