Abstract
In a magnetic recording medium comprising a nonmagnetic substrate, a first magnetic layer, and a second magnetic layer mounted in this order, the first magnetic layer has a greater coercive force and a lower residual flux density than the second magnetic layer. When the second magnetic layer is directly mounted on the first magnetic layer, the second magnetic layer has a thickness within the range of 0.05-0.5 .mu.m and a coercive force within the range of 1200-2000 Oe while the first magnetic layer has a coercive force greater than that of the second magnetic layer by 800-2500 Oe and a residual flux density in the range of 30-70% of that of the second magnetic layer. When a nonmagnetic layer is held between the first and second magnetic layers, the first magnetic layer has a coercive force not smaller than 2000 Oe and a residual flux density not greater than 70% of that of the second magnetic layer while the second magnetic layer has a coercive force not smaller than 1200 Oe, a residual flux density not lower than 1600 G, and a thickness not greater than 0.5 .mu.m.
