The large discrepancy between theoretical predictions and realized magnetic properties of hysteresis loops of high-quality permanent magnets, known as Brown-paradox, has been the matter of discussions over decades of years. In particular whether the leading hardening mechanism is due to a nucleation mechanism or to domain wall pinning has been the topic of many publications with contrary statements. Here the existence of single or multi-domain grains plays a central role. This contribution presents the following basic results which allow a distinction between the two types of hardening mechanisms: 1. Coercive field Hc as a function of maximum applied magnetic field. 2. Change of domain patterns as a function of applied magnetic field. 3. Angular dependence of Hc. 4. Temperature dependence of Hc. Experimental results obtained for nanocrystalline systems of FePt and MnBi and sintered Nd-Fe-B based permanent magnets are compared with micromagnetic analytical results. It is shown that for high-quality permanent magnets the dominant hardening mechanism corresponds to the nucleation process.
