Enamel filled flush and polished flat — a smooth, glass-like finish with a premium, jewelry-grade feel that lasts for years.
Hard enamel coins take the same colored enamel as soft enamel but fill it completely flush with the metal, then polish the surface flat through multiple passes until it is smooth as glass.
The result is a premium, jewelry-like finish with no raised ridges — just a clean, glossy surface that looks and feels high-end and resists scratches and wear through years of handling.
Hard enamel is the style of choice for executive gifts, awards, and recognition pieces that get displayed on a desk or in a case rather than carried in a pocket.

February 20, 2026Hard enamel is filled flush to the metal and polished completely flat, so there are no raised ridges — the surface is smooth like glass. Soft enamel leaves the color recessed and textured.
Yes. The flat, sealed surface is more resistant to scratches and wear, which is why it is favored for premium and long-displayed pieces.
It typically costs more than soft enamel because of the extra filling and polishing steps, but the premium finish is worth it for high-end pieces.
Absolutely. Hard enamel supports full-color designs, and we match to the Pantone system.
