I keep seeing these popping up throughout ebay with crazy premiums and I'm wondering how they're made. I've never owned one, not certain id like to, but is it just a sticker? How do they get so much detail on the coins!

Here it is explained how Littleton is doing it: https://blog.littletoncoin.com/behi...rized-coins/


Quote:
Once the colorized design is approved, we send our colorized images off to a company that applies the special inks directly to the surface of the coins. A sample is sent back to the designer, who inspects it to make sure the colors are right and the quality meets our standards.

If they are really selling for crazy premiums, then you should make your own!
