Coining is a form of precision stamping in which a workpiece is subjected to a sufficiently high stress to induce plastic flow on the surface of the material. A beneficial feature is that in some metals, the plastic flow reduces surface grain size, and work hardens the surface, while the material deeper in the part retains its toughness and ...
A coin die itself, has been the main motive for many collectors coins and medals. One of the most recent and famous one, is the Austrian 700 Years City of Hall in Tyrol coin, minted on January 29, 2003. The reverse side of the coin shows the Guldiner silver coin. However, the design is negative, representing a coin die, as a reference to Hall's ...
Coining may refer to: Coining (metalworking), a metalworking process; Coining (mint), the production of coins; Coining (traditional medicine), dermabrasion practiced ...
Stamping includes a variety of sheet-metal forming manufacturing processes, such as punching using a machine press or stamping press, blanking, embossing, bending, flanging, and coining. [1] This could be a single stage operation where every stroke of the press produces the desired form on the sheet metal part, or could occur through a series ...
Sheet metal embossing is a metalworking process for producing raised or sunken designs or relief in sheet metal.In contrast to coining (which uses unmatched dies), embossing uses matched male and female dies [1] to achieve the pattern, either by stamping, or by passing a sheet or strip of metal between patterned rollers.

Since the sintering temperature does not have to reach the melting point of the material, sintering is often chosen as the shaping process for materials with extremely high melting points, such as tungsten and molybdenum. The study of sintering in metallurgical powder-related processes is known as powder metallurgy.
In modern practice in the United States, milling, or a milled edge, can refer to the raised edge on the coin face, applied by a special milling machine after the planchets are cut out and polished. In addition, the reeding of coins of higher value, applied by the collar holding the coin when it is stamped, can be considered part of the milled edge.
