ABSTRACT:
There is provided a metallic composite useful for coinage. The core is formed from a copper alloy that contains between 50% and 99.0% copper, has a room temperature electrical conductivity in excess of 25% IACS an initial yield strength in excess of 10,000 psi and a dynamic softening response onset at a temperature in the range of 200.degree. C.-400.degree. C. The cladding layers have an initial yield strength more than that of the core and a gold color. The strengthening response of the core during cladding is similar to that of the cladding layers making the metallic composites resistant to corrugation. Reducing corrugation increases the sensitivity of electromagnetic coin discriminators.
