<p>A process for which firstly a basic body is produced which is provided at least on the head side with a relief-type illustration and subsequently receives a glossy coating. The intention of the invention is to design a process of this type in such a way that it can be used to manufacture medals which have at least on their head side a combined matt/gloss coating, allow the illustration to be easily recognised, have an elegant appearance and can be produced by a simple process. This is achieved by the fact that, after production of the coating, which has been set to a first gloss value, over the entire surface, a second coating, which has been set to a different gloss value, is applied only to the raised regions of the medal on said first coating. This second coating is preferably produced by embossing using a hot blocking foil by means of a die with an elastic punch head, the elasticity of the punch head and the embossing being matched to each other in such a way that the depressed regions of the relief-type illustration are not included in the embossing operation.</p> |
