mintings
Fresh coin stampings
Mintings are instances of producing coins or medals by stamping metal, or more recently, creating digital tokens on a blockchain.
The word emphasizes discrete acts of creation: The museum displayed mintings from ancient Rome alongside medieval examples.
In cryptocurrency contexts, mintings refer to the generation of new tokens: Recent NFT mintings have slowed considerably.
