Enameled Cents
Solid copper pennies have been transformed through the historic technique of vitreous enamel. Vitreous enamel is a material made by fusing powdered glass to a substrate by firing in a kiln. The powder melts, flows, and then hardens to a smooth, durable vitreous coating. The word comes from the Latin vitreum, meaning "glass".
