    I agree, and the template on the first two really makes the coin pop as well.

    I don't have anything astounding but I've always like this design.

    Nice coin, and your Photoshop background template looks superb.

    PS- I visited Mombasa in 1972, when but a wee lad. Ourselves and all our worldly possessions (for we were to live in Africa a year) were offloaded from the Greek freighter we crossed the Atlantic in, into a dangerously overloaded dinghy-type craft that carried us ashore. I remember being terrified that a wave would sink us, because the gunwales of the dinghy we were in were just inches above the level of the water, and there was all kinds of traffic in the harbor creating wakes.

    Thanks!
    That would indeed be a harrowing experience. :nailbiting: Hopefully things improved once reaching shore. Did you live in Mombasa itself or some other part of Africa?

    Mombasa was our final port of disembarkation from the ship, but we lived in Tanzania: Moshi, and later Arusha.
