wilsonwu89 Pillar of the Community Canada 706 Posts	Posted 09/06/2014 03:07 am I know most of you are probably going to think that I'm crazy and that I'm ruining my penny as a PMD. But I have 2 5oz Pennies and I want to keep one in its original form and augment one to fit in with the Big Coin Series which I will be displaying in my room. My question is are there any professional custom coin platers that are recommendable for slick precision plating? I don't want a sloppy amateur job done. I know some European mints have done a good job pumping out nice aftermarket RCM jobs. Any ideas? Report this Post to the Staff

Actually I would prefer all of them to NOT be gilded but as they all are but the penny it would be nice. I never went further in trying to have mine plated as you are suggesting, just let us know if you find something, I would be interested too! Report this Post to the Staff
