La matrice est essentiellement le coin original; elle est copiée en vue de la production du poinçon maître (c'est ce qu'on appelle l'enfonçage des coins). Le poinçon maître est ensuite enfoncé dans un autre coin vierge afin de produire des coins de travail qui servent à frapper les pièces. 4, record 2, French, - enfon%C3%A7age%20des%20coins
