3D Printed Zorkmid Coin

[Marc Wagner]

Hey all - I'm in the process of duplicating this hard to find coin. I own one and have been cold casting resin duplicates. I duplicated the art on the coin in vectored format a while back and now I've translated it into a 3d model.

I saw a blog where someone used his prints as the base for lost wax casting in a 5 gallon bucket crucible.

Oh, that's cool. I wish I knew where my original went.

Here it is! It turned out great. Its in bronze to match the original and the weight matches too!

looks great. I learned casting here on the RPF by doing one of my Zorkmids. I only ever did cold cast bronze. The background on your coin looks a lot more mottled than mine. Could just be the closeup though. Great coin.

Hello, all. I just picked up a coin and suspect it to be inauthentic and heard there's generally a weight difference. Is there an (un)official weight of a verified zorkmid? Thanks! Jay
