Definición

'Minted' describes something that has been newly produced, especially coins by an official mint. Informally, it can mean something is completely new or, in British slang, that someone is very rich.

Uso & Matices

Formal for new coins, but informally used to mean 'brand new' (esp. with objects or cars), or British slang for 'very rich' (“He's absolutely minted.”). Not used for people in the 'brand new' sense; used for objects or money. Common mistake: confusing 'minted' (made or new) with 'mint' (flavor or condition).
