Abstract

A magnetic recording medium is disclosed. The surface of the magnetic layer has a Ns/Ns(t) ratio of 0.10 to 0.35, wherein the Ns is a number of spikes protruding from an average line of a surface roughness cross section curve by not less than 0.01 .mu.m and the Ns(t) is a total number of spikes protruding from the average line. The medium is improved in electromagnetic characteristics, contamination of magnetic head and rubbing noise.
