Re: coining (wasnt sure where this would go)
A fifty ton press should suffice for a small coin of 22 mm. Silver is a rather soft metal, especially sterling silver or even better; pure silver. But the result depends on other things as well, e.g. the depth of the engraving in the dies. Compare a coin with a high relief medal. A high relief medal takes a much heavier press than a flat coin.
Are you going to struck your coin with the aid of a ring or without? That also makes a difference for the result.
I'd love to see some pictures of your coin dies.
Regards,
Lei
