In autumn 2013, the LVR LandesMuseum Bonn commissioned me to mold a Roman gold coin with a small loop from the museum depot.
The Roman coin from the 4th century AD with the image of the East Roman Emperor's Constantine was to be molded and several replicas made of it in silver and gold plated.
First, a silicon impression of the coin was made. Then, with the help of this mold, a synthetic resin copy of the original gold coin could be created, which in turn was cast in 925/- silver.
At the end, the replicas of the gold coin were electroplated and handed over to the LVR LandesMuseum in Bonn on time.
