Before planchets are struck they are given a bath.This bath takes place in a giant vat where thousands,even millions,of other planchets preceded them.In effect,a sintered planchet is a planchet that took a bath in dirty bath water! If a vat has typically been used to clean copper planchets, then a load of white metal coins is dumped in the same solution,the result is often one of the copper adhering to the surface of the white metal,much like electroplating

Genuine sintered planchets,though very scarce,command little premium as the effect is easily duplicated out site the mint and few people are able to authenticate them.A good example would be a 10 cents Malaysia Bunga Raya series,normal in all respect that it looks like it was struck on a copper planchet.
