Lastly, we have a few specialty challenge coin plating options if you are looking for something more unique! These include polished and antique dual plating, colored metal, and anodized (rainbow) metal. The contrast created by the antique wash also helps to highlight intricate detailing and makes raised metal text more legible. If you want a more more rugged, worn look, we offer antique options in gold, silver and copper. Lastly, colored metal is just that, metal made any color you want! It’s not a commonly ordered option, but we can use the same powder coating plating process that we use to make black metal to make red, blue or even green metal.Īs you can see, we have a very wide array of plating options for your challenge coins! Keep in mind, the same plating processes listed here work for any of our other metal products such as lapel pins, custom belt buckles, and medallions! For a more traditional, and professional look we have our high polished plating options which include polished gold, polished silver, polished copper and black nickel. The vibrant colors of the polished gold and copper really pop off of the dark shiny black nickel finish. You can go crazy though with metal combinations! Some of our favorite, and less ordered options, include black nickel with gold and black nickel with copper. For example, anodized metal can’t be dual plated because it is created using an electrochemical plating process that is unique to itself. This means that you can’t have polished gold with antique silver, or visa versa. The only real restraint is when choosing metal combinations you have to stick to one plating type. Our most popular dual plating option is antique and polished gold and silver combinations. Dual Plating is when we combine two different plating options. We offer three types of specialty plating options: dual plating, colored metal and anodized metal (which is commonly referred to as rainbow metal). The last process we use, anodization, is an electrochemical plating process that gives the metal a really cool rainbow-like finish. With powder coating you can make the metal any color you want, but our most common powder coated metal finish is Black Metal.
Powder coating is an electrostatic process used to color metals. Two other plating processes we use to create our challenge coins are powder coating and anodization. The chemical bond is a permanent bond, meaning it is not coming off! So you don’t have to worry about your coin’s plating chipping or peeling. Electroplating is an application process which chemically bonds the plating metal to the surface of the base metal. Most of our challenge coin plating options are done using a process called electroplating. Our most popular options are either polished or antique gold and silver, but we also offer a variety of other finishes as well. The custom challenge coin’s plating refers to the metallic finish on the surface of the coin. However, before we begin, let’s take a quick look at just what a challenge coin’s plating is!
