<p>[QUOTE="thepersonman, post: 3469222, member: 72718"]Recently I've been looking for clothing that could express my interest in numismatics and capture the artistry behind the coins in my collection. So I did some looking but I was not able to find much. The few items that I did discover looked like someone glued a paper printout or a coin shaped sticker to a shirt. They seemed very two dimensional, bland, and frankly quite cheap looking (pictured below).So I decided to create my own. With the help of a friend who dabbles in embroidering and screen-printing clothing, we were able to come up with a preliminary design and a rough prototype. Originally this was only supposed to be for my own personal wear, but I was wondering what the wider community thought and I figured ya'll are the perfect people to ask. Currently the only design is the Obverse of the Liberty Nickel (a personal favorite) and we are still trying to dial in the embroidery to capture some more detail, but overall I am fairly proud of the design so far. The goal is to capture the key elements and motifs of the coin without blatantly revealing it as a coin. Any sort of feedback would be greatly appreciated. Thank you![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
