                    II. Key points for selecting coin electroplating colors

                                        Common electroplating colors include gold, silver, bronze, rose gold, black, etc.
                                        Gold: Gives a noble and luxurious feeling, often used to symbolize honor and achievement.
                                        For example: For commemorative challenge coins for corporate anniversary celebrations, gold can be selected to highlight its 

                                        importance and commemorative significance.  
                                        Silver: It has a modern and technological feel and looks simple and generous.
                                        For example: For event challenge coins of technology companies, silver can show their innovative and cutting-edge image.   
                                        Copper: Rich in history and charm, suitable for reflecting traditional cultural themes.
                                        For challenge coins for cultural heritage protection activities, copper can convey its profound cultural heritage.
                                        Black nickel: mysterious and cool, often used in personalized and trendy designs.
                                        For example, the challenge coins of e-sports competitions, black can show the fierceness and uniqueness of the competition.

                                        If it is a simple and modern style, silver or black may be a good choice.
                                        For classical and traditional designs, bronze or gold can better reflect its charm.
                                        If it is a vibrant and creative theme, rose gold or color electroplating can add a lively atmosphere.

                                        (III) Color matching principles

                                        Contrasting color matching: such as gold and black, silver and red, can produce a strong visual impact.
                                        Similar color matching: such as gold and bronze, silver and gray, create a harmonious and unified feeling.
                                        Three primary colors matching: the combination of red, yellow and blue is full of vitality and dynamism.
