En collaboration avec un partenaire privé, la Monnaie a mis au point et fait breveter un processus appelé «activation digitale non destructrice» (ADN), qui balaie la structure de surface unique de chaque pièce afin de créer une empreinte digitale exclusive. Ces données sont stockées dans une base de données et utilisées pour confirmer l'authenticité de chaque pièce fabriquée par la Monnaie, malgré l'usure normale subie par la pièce au cours de son cycle de vie. Cette technologie peut être utilisée pour authentifier des pièces de circulation, de collection et d'investissement. 5, record 1, French, - activation%20digitale%20non%20destructrice

activation digitale non destructrice : terme à privilégier à la Monnaie royale canadienne. Selon certains auteurs, le terme «digitale» est un anglicisme dans ce sens. Toutefois, ce terme est utilisé par les spécialistes de la Monnaie pour désigner un code dans lequel on utilise des nombres. 6, record 1, French, - activation%20digitale%20non%20destructrice
