Yeah, I was about to pick up my jaw from the floor when I heard Ron replicated a gold foil dial...........to replicate just one piece......

It is embossed gold paper with pretty intricate pattern.

I think if anyone wanted to do this he would probably have to create a die from a good quality metal to use it to stamp out foil .....
