A cliché coin forgery is a type of counterfeit coin produced using a genuine coin to impress a design into silver foil. Evidence of the probable manufacturing technique are finds of small lead sheets with multiple coin impressions and also fragments of impressed foils or complete 'coins'. The process seems to have involved the following steps. First, sandwiching a genuine coin between a fold of foil, generally silver, with a thickness of 50–100 microns. This was then placed between lead sheets and the pile struck with a hammer. This resulted in the foils taking an impression of each face of the coin simultaneously, also incidentally transferred to the lead sheets. The folded foil was then removed and the resulting obverse and reverse impressions were then simply soldered together, usually with tin-lead solder. The final sandwich was then trimmed to size, possibly with a 'pastry cutter' type tool, forming a circular coin.
