The same coin,
eighteen characters.
The plating is what gives a coin or a pin its final character — warm or cool, bright or muted, modern or aged. Here is every finish we run in the workshop, with the AEROTRADITION wordmark embossed in each one so you can read the effect at a glance.
Polished
Mirror surface, sharp luminous reflections. The most brilliant finish — ideal for a crisp, high-contrast crest.
Gold
Warm reflections, maximum shine
Silver
Cool reflections, very bright
Nickel
Slightly warmer grey than silver
Brass
Pale golden yellow, slightly greenish
Copper
Warm rosy reflections
Matte
Sandblasted surface, soft diffuse reflections. Understated, glare-free — elegant and contemporary.
Matt gold
Gold tone without shine, very soft
Matt silver
Satin light grey
Matt nickel
Slightly darker satin grey
Antique
The metal is patinated: recesses darken, raised areas stay bright. Adds character and brings out the artwork.

Antique silver

Dual & special
Two metals on a single piece, or special effects — for a truly unique result.
