Museum Replica Medals: Re-striking & Aging Handover
博物馆纪念章复刻的补压与做旧衔接
标签：博物馆复刻, 补压, 做旧, 馆藏衍生品
博物馆复刻历史奖章常用原模翻制电极再电铸成压模，压印力取新章的 80–90%（如常规 400 t 则用 320–360 t），以保留手工时代的柔边。压后做旧与着色工序衔接：淡硫化钾 0.3–0.5 vol% 薄涂两遍，凹部留深、凸部抛亮，最后上微晶蜡。关键控制点是复刻章与原章的边齿压力须一致，否则手感即穿帮。
Museum medal replicas are usually struck from dies electroformed off the original; press force runs 80–90% of new production (e.g. 320–360 t instead of 400 t) to preserve the soft edges of the hand-struck era. Aging then hands over to the patina stage: two thin coats of 0.3–0.5 vol% K₂S, dark in recesses and polished on relief, sealed with microcrystalline wax. Edge-denting force must match the original, or the feel gives it away. ---
