Each participant or family can strike coins with a total weight of 20g of tin. Visitors can carry out all the steps of preparation, ie forging the raw material, cutting/separating it, weighing the raw material, weighing the raw material with a beam balance and putting it into punch plates, right up to striking the motif/coin image themselves or putting the coin image together themselves using punches.
