Other than some loss of fine detail, the only way you'd be able to tell the difference is if you picked them up and compared the weight.

That is one of the benefits of electroforming.

After printing I send it to a company that does plating in silver gold and bronze,they even do it with baby shoes and flowers,so I am not sure how they do it but I guess they first paint it with a paint so they can plate any item.
And this angel is silver plated not casted,when I send it for plating the weight was 21 grams after plating it was 30 grams.
