How to choose AA medallions, coins and chips
Choices has sold recovery medallions from our Upper East Side store since 1989. Here's a quick guide to what's on this page.
Chips, coins or medallions?
Members use all three words — and “tokens” — for the same thing: a keepsake marking time in AA. Many groups call the early tokens for 24 hours and the first months “chips,” and the yearly anniversary tokens “medallions” or “coins.” You'll find all of them here.
24 hours and monthly chips
Our aluminum 24-hour and monthly chips cover 24 hours and months 1–11, from $1.50 each — an easy way to keep a supply on hand for a meeting or a sponsee. For something more lasting, our tricolor enamel days-and-months coin runs from 24 hours to 18 months.
Yearly anniversary medallions
Most designs come in every year from 1 to 50, and many from 1 to 65 — choose the year on the product page. Shop popular milestones: 1 year, 2 years, 3 years, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years, 25 years, 30 years, 40 years and 50 years, or browse by decade: 10s, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s.
Styles
- Bronze — the traditional AA medallion. Our solid-bronze coin (years 1–65, $4.00) is one of our best-selling AA medallions, with “To Thine Own Self Be True” and the year in Roman numerals on the front and the Serenity Prayer on the back. Bill & Bob coins are also available.
- Tricolor and color medallions — gold- and silver-plated coins with color enamel in pink, purple, blue, red, black, green, turquoise and white.
- Bling — coins set with crystals, from classic white to rainbow and color-matched stones.
- Glow in the dark — glows after dark; many add a color transition or crystals.
- Inspirational — slogan coins such as Keep Coming Back, Easy Does It and First Things First.
