A surface modifying jig of an engine valve comprising a substantially circular ring portion for holding the valve head of an engine valve, a head holding portion having a diameter decreasing gradually downward from the inner circumferential side of the ring portion, and a stem holding portion formed below the head holding portion with a substantially constant diameter. When plasma nitriding is performed, the valve head comes into annular line contact with the ring portion and being held by the head holding portion while kept in annular plane contact therewith, and a valve stem is held by the stem holding portion while kept in annular plane contact therewith.
