For the Australian release of Brisingr by Christopher Paolini, Random House Publishing launched a competition to win a gold medallion.
Brisingr Competition
The one-of-a-kind Brisingr 18ct gold medallion was worth $10,000. Officially endorsed by Christopher Paolini, the medallion featured a certified autograph by Paolini and an illustration by cover artist John Jude Palencar.
Computer Sculpt
Using the book cover as reference, the dragon was sculpted in CAD to create a relief that could then be added to the coin base.
Coin Render
A computer render helped visualise how the coin would look prior to manufacturing.
Wax Carving
Prior to casting the medallion was carved in wax using a milling machine.
Silver Rough Cast
The wax was then converted to metal using a technique called investment casting. The raw casting needs filing and polishing. This image is of the sterling silver medallion at an early filing stage.
Final Medallion
The silver casting was polished and then used as a pattern to create a rubber mold. From this mold, another cast was made in 18ct gold which was then polished to create this final piece.
