Unique technologies were applied in the manufacture of the medals, head of the Sens-Geraldika company Kirill Korolevich said. “I can say with confidence that these medals are unmatched in the world,” he noted. The frame of the medal is made of a special alloy - tombac. Depending on the type of the medal, the medals contain precious metals: 24 karat gold, 999-standard silver and bronze. Nano-diamonds are used to harden the precious coatings. This is the technology patented by Belarusian developers. One gold medal requires a quadrillion (1015) nano-diamonds. The process to manufacture one coin, which combines traditional techniques and nano-technology, takes about 20 hours. The medal weighs about 540g, is 9.5cm in diameter and about 1cm thick.
