摘要
Because coining dies are consumables, most of mints have adopted the hard surface coating on coining dies in order to increase the wear resistance of them. Even though coining dies for "proof coins" are coated by Cr-plating, they have especially short life time. Instead of Cr-plating, we tried to apply Diamond-Like Carbon (DLC) film for proof coins. In order to examine the effect of the DLC films, proof coins were actually produced with the DLC coated dies. In consequence, the die life using DLC coating is estimated to be more than twice as long as that for Cr-plating. (C) 2014 Published by Elsevier Ltd.
