ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE
A process for producing blanks suitable for
minting into coins includes providing a plurality of
appropriately disc-shaped metallic cores, heating the
cores to decrease their hardness to less than about
65 of the Rockwell 30T hardness scale, and cooling
the heated cores to provide cooled cores with a
hardness less than about 65 on the Rockwell 30T hard-
ness scale. A plurality of cooled cores are loaded
into an electrically non-conducting perforated con-
tainer, which is then placed in an electroplating bath.
A metallic cladding is electroplated onto the cores,
while moving the container angularly about a horizontal
axis, until a plating thickness of at least about
0.01 mm has been deposited on each face of each core
and a thickness of from about 2 to about 4 times the
face thickness has been deposited on the circumference
of each core. The cladded core pieces are then removed
from the container.
