HOW TO USE:
A) By using a hydraulic press (80–120 tons).
B) Hand-minting:
1. Find a wooden stump made of especially hard wood (e.g. oak) with a diameter of 40-50 cm and a height of at least 50 cm. In addition, you should have a hammer weighing 6-8 kg.
2. Mark the positions of the four tool holes on a stump.
3. Drill four 5 mm holes.
4. Fasten the minting tool on the stump using four self-tapping screws.
5. Put the bottom stamp (die), a coin blank and the upper stamp to the minting tool. Rotate the minting stamps so the obverse of a coin coincides with the reverse of the coin.
6. Make a sharp strong blow with a hammer exactly in the middle of the minting tool top. A quality of coinage depends on the strength of an impact and an accuracy of hitting.
7. To get better minting results, you can make several hammer blows.
In this case, it is necessary to control the position of the coin blank relative to the bottom and the upper stamps each time.
A coin blank should be in an engagement with the stamps, in other words the imprinted logo on a coin blank should be in recesses of the stamps.
8. Coin blanks are increased in diameter after minting, and they may be stuck in the guide ring. To remove a coin, you should strike with a small hammer using the opposite side of any stamp.
