The Meaning Behind AA Chips And Medallions

What's the meaning behind AA Medallions?  Well first there is actually no such thing as an AA medallion.  AA has never lent its name to be printed on a sobriety medallion or chip.  Many people call the anniversary style coin that marks months or years of sobriety AA medallions as they are traditionally given out in meetings.  However there is no official medallion and chips are not actually a part of the program of Alcoholics Anonymous.  Sobriety coins are more a part of AA Culture as many groups and members give coins to each other to celebrate milestones of sobriety....

3 New 1 Year AA Medallion Color And Gold Plated Designs Blue & Black With Beveled Edges

I love high end AA Medallions, the traditional bronze coins are great, but i've really gained an appreciation for the high end medallions that become art pieces.  Plating and colors and texture and epoxy coatings give these coins a unique character that really set the various models apart from the traditional styles.  I decided to see if we could develop our own unique coin and started with the 1 year chip as it is the most popular we sell.  I worked with a great designer at http://graphicsbyjen.com who listened to my requirements.  I explained that AA Medallions have traditional required...

Thy Will Not Mine Be Done Medallions Step 3 In Your Pocket

I am pleased to bring to market what I think might be a first.  I've sold praying hands medallions that say One Day At A Time for awhile but I was looking for something unique and something that would serve as a reminder how we can stay connected to God as we go through our days.  Frequently when I take a moment and talk to God I say "Thy Will Not Mine Be Done", its something suggested to me in the book Alcoholics Anonymous as a way to set aside my will and listen for knowledge of what God wants...
