Plated coins provide security
Plated materials are also used in coin production. In this process, coins are made from a metal core that is plated with a thin layer of another metal. This process offers various advantages and enables the production of coins with special properties.
- Long service life
- Excellent corrosion resistance
- Maximum counterfeit protection
- Good processability

CuNi25-Ni and CuZn20Ni5 nickel platings for coins
Platings can increase the wear resistance of coins, as the plated metal provides a more durable surface.
Plating can protect coins from corrosion by applying a corrosion-resistant metal layer.
Plated materials enable the production of coins with an attractive external appearance, as different metals and alloys can be combined.
In some cases, the use of plated materials can increase the value of a coin, especially when rare or precious metals are used.
Plated coins can be used in special applications where high electrical conductivity is required, such as in slot machines.
