A dual plated challenge coin carries two different metal finishes on the same coin. We mask off part of your artwork and plate each area separately, so one element — a badge, a seal, a logo mark, a line of text — ends up in a completely different metal than everything around it.
It is not the same as adding a color. Enamel fills the recessed areas of a design and reads as paint, while a second plating changes the metal itself, so the highlighted element still catches light like metal. Gold on silver is the most popular pairing; black nickel with copper is a striking, less common one.
