Abstract

Abstract A magnetic recording medium is described comprising a first layer comprising a magnetic iron oxide powder dispersed in a binder formed on a nonmagnetic support, a second layer formed on the first layer comprising a ferromagnetic metal powder dispersed in a binder, and having a greater coercive force than the first layer, and a third layer comprising a thin ferromagnetic metal film formed on the second layer in a thickness of from 0.01μ to 0.5μ.
