    that sorta thing gets done all the time with packaging. You should be fine to print cmyk or pantone onto it. I think you'll have to just pick a gold/deep yellow looking pantone which should look reflective and gold when printed onto a mirror card or whatever youre printing onto.

    And not many pantones are opaque. Not sure whether that is what spooky was trying to say. But I'm pretty sure just the metallic ones have some opacity or if you are using specific opaque white ink. Pantones overprint just like any other ink.
