I asked about 1 years ago what ton press is needed to coin up bullion bars. No answer from this forum
I have something now, going yo see and ask directly to press producer in order to set up a small mint.
20 Ton press is quite enough to coin just a 1mm thin gold bar.
Fot a 100gr bullion bar with a thickness of 5/7mm a 120/160 tons press is suggested.
Of course this is just ti "fill" the stamp. Other ton quantities are needed to obtain a very fine angle/curve on the surface drawings (like coins).
1- Process to coin is ROLL to obtain a perfect thickness
2- Cut to obtain exact weight and stamp form
3- Red-Heat not-fine bard obtained to preserve stamps
4- Coin to fill out the stamp.

What i'm tring to do is pouring in a definied mold making weighted gold obtaining not fine ingots to go directly on point 4.
This is to not buy roller and cutter too!
A 200 tons press and customized stamps are very wxpensive here. Dont know there.
