<p>[QUOTE="Numismat, post: 3213207, member: 15019"]It seems like a good way to fake proof coins. Sand casting would be a cheap and effective way to achieve that frosted look, thought it is noticeably more granular. Cast the die, polish the fields and the incuse parts stay rough and "frosty" looking. Not sure if that's what is being done here, seems like a less primitive method may be involved, but it works in theory <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie1" alt=":)" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
