Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for providing an image to a coin/token, comprising applying a relief structure, essentially consisting of triangular ribs, wherein part of said image is applied to one side of a rib and a series of said sides of a series of said ribs forms said image, wherein said part of said image on said side of said rib is formed by making regions with reflective characteristics in said side, which regions differ from the other regions of said side.
  • Each image is made up of a number of part images. There is such a part image on each rib.
  • Such a structure is complex to produce and leads to inadequate contrast if there is insufficient illumination.
  • US-A 2002/0154290 discloses a coin with a metal surface having macroscopic and microscopic reliefs.
  • EP-A-0650853 describes a process for obtaining double picture prints on hard surfaces in security systems.
  • Hard surfaces comprise coins, metals and the like.
  • EP 0 4581 414 A1 discloses bills, bank notes, credit cards and the like having a relief structure on which lines having a different color can be provided to present latent image.
  • AU-A-84419/02 (or AU-B-549612 ) discloses a card in which a relief structure is provided that partly can be provided with a color.
  • the aim of the present invention is to provide a simple method for applying an image to a coin or token.
  • the provision of said regions with differing reflective properties comprises the provision of a raised surface that extends essentially parallel to the remaining surface of said side.
  • one side of a rib that is provided with an image portion is provided with raised and lowered regions. These regions consist of surfaces that are essentially parallel to one another. When light is incident on these this is discernible to the observer. Such elevations can be small. A value of 1/100 mm is mentioned as an example.
  • either the raised part obtained in this way or the lowered part obtained in this way is provided with a differing surface structure.
  • a matt finish is one example of such a differing surface structure.
  • such a matt finish is applied in the raised region. This is simple on production engineering grounds. After all, this means that there is a lowered region with material in the die.
  • laser techniques it is now possible on a very small scale very accurately "to bum in" very accurately defined regions on the rib of a mould, as a result of which the desired differing structure, such as a matt finish, is produced. When the coins are struck this structure is transferred to the coin/token.
  • the present invention also relates to a coin/token obtained in this way, having a relief consisting of a series of essentially identically shaped ribs, each with two sloping sides, located one after the other, wherein part of an image is applied to each of said ribs and said parts together form said image, wherein each part of said image is formed in that regions are made in said sloping sides that have reflective properties that differ from the light-reflecting properties of the remainder of said side, wherein said regions with differing light reflecting properties comprise surfaces that are raised relative to the remaining surface of said sloping wall an essentially parallel to said remaining surface of said sloping side.
  • the invention also relates to a lie according to claim 9.
  • a coin/token according to the present invention is shown by 1 in Fig. 1 .
  • This coin/token consists of a number of circular ribs 2.
  • the ribs can have any other shape in their extension.
  • such ribs can be made in accordance with specific undulating patterns in order to provide a security feature or a particular optical effect
  • the ribs can, for example, be made straight.
  • the characterising feature is that a large number of ribs extend parallel to one another over a specific portion of the coin.
  • Each rib has a part image on one of the sides thereof, which part images together form the image 7.
  • Fig. 2 Details thereof can be seen in Fig. 2 .
  • a few ribs 2 are shown on an appreciably enlarged scale.
  • Each rib 2 consists of a first sloping surface 3 and a second sloping surface 4.
  • Each sloping surface 3 consists of a base portion 6 and an elevated portion 5.
  • the surface of portion 5 is essentially parallel to the surface of portion 6.
  • portion 5 is provided with a matt finish structure, which is indicated by 8.
  • part image 9 is obtained on one side 3. If the coin is viewed obliquely from above in the direction of arrow 10, the part images 9 together form a complete image.
  • part images to side 4 as well. That is to say, when the coin or token 1 is observed from different sides the same or different images are visible.
  • the elevation 5 is obtained by making a recess in the die with the aid of laser techniques. By providing this with a somewhat rough surface, the matt finish surface 5 will subsequently be produced.
  • Fig. 2 it is shown that there is a raised region 5 and a lowered region 6 over the height of side 3.
  • a raised region 5 and a lowered region 6 over the height of side 3.
  • a raised region is indicated by 15, whilst, adjoining this, a lowered region is indicated by 16.
  • the surfaces 3 and 4 intersect one another. However, it is also possible to provide a horizontal base surface between them. There can optionally be a further image on this base surface.
