Of all the Reddit Awards out there, Reddit Silver and Reddit Gold are some of the more popular ones. If you’re in a generous mood, you might have even handed out a Reddit Platinum Award before, that even comes with a month worth of Reddit Premium.

However, there’s one award out there that’s considered to be “the” award on Reddit, simply because it is also the most expensive one.

What is the best award on Reddit?

It’s called the Ternion All-Powerful Award and is available for a whopping 50,000 Reddit Coins. It is by far also the most prestigious and one of the rarest awards on Reddit. Getting one of these is like winning the lottery!

The biggest and most expensive award on Reddit must come with a ton of benefits, right? Luckily, it does come with some sweet benefits for the lucky people who have been awarded one of these precious badges.

Of course, the six-month period comes with all the benefits of Premium, including ad-free browsing (although there are ways to block ads on Reddit), access to the exclusive /r/lounge Premium community as well as a monthly supply of 700 Reddit coins to spend on awards.

So that’s a one-time award of 5000 Coins along with 6 times the monthly 700 coins you’ll receive from your free Premium subscription.

In total, that’s no less than 9200 coins you’ll get if you’re awarded a Ternion All-Powerful award.

Well, you can buy a package of 82,000 Reddit Coins for $199.99 USD. When you calculate the price for 50,000 Reddit Coins, you end up with a value of around $122 for a Ternion All-Powerful award.

That does, however, leave you with some 32,000 Reddit Coins extra, and that might be a bit too much. Alternatively, you could buy a package of 40,000 coins ($99.99), 7,200 coins ($19.99), and 3,100 coins ($9.99) for a total of $129.97. That’ll be enough to buy a ternion award with 300 Reddit coins to spare.

You can check out full prices on the official Reddit coins page.

Is the Unobtanium Award on Reddit better than Ternion?

Not to be confused with the “unachievanium” nickname that’s given to the Ternion Award, the Unobtanium Award is actually an even more exclusive award than ternion, but can’t be given by Redditors.

The Unobtanium Award was simply made as a test award, as it was the first animated award on Reddit. In other words – it’s an award that is only used by the Reddit team.

There’s only one post on the entirety of Reddit that has received the unobtanium award, and it is a Star Wars meme about the prequel movies.

Since you can’t buy or gift unobtainium, the Ternion All-Powerful Award remains the most expensive and best award on Reddit.

Summary

Ternion is the most prestigious, most expensive, most flashy and pretty much the best award you can get on Reddit – but it comes with a hefty price. It does come with a bunch of benefits, but being awarded a ternion all-powerful award is pretty much just great for online bragging rights. That doesn’t mean it isn’t cool, of course!
