My entry

Here's mine. I now know what the Buffalo designer felt like when he had no room for anything! I couldn't find an appropiate place to fit the value (1/5/10 cents) nor U.S.A., so presumably it's on the unseen reverse (just like the Buffalo nickel!)

As for what's on the (seen) obverse...it's typical Lady Liberty (marked by her LIBERTY tiara/crown) holding up a torch (also) symbolizing Liberty, declaring freedom for all who can see her torch. In her left hand is a shield symbolizing justice, in which L.L. defends against corruption and supports the righteous. I felt it should be mentioned on this design since IMHO it always goes unnoticed and never highlighted on coins. Her flowing hair represents our country's growing history. And of course there's the "In God We Trust", which speaks for itself.

Hope you like it! (Excuse the many erase/stray marks)


On a side note...thank goodness for compasses!

 

Here is my coin design: Thanks for the contest!

have I made my case? I did not look this up, this is from memory.

 

This is a little enticement. The prize...I love all of the designs so far, but for the rest of you, get to work.


Sorry my images are so poor, but the luster is quite nice.

 

Beautiful coin but is there a second place? Cause no one is beating AngelKitty's design. That thing is beautiful.

 

Maybe so, I have given a second prize in every contest that I have held so far. Maybe first place will be what others have voted for, and second place will be my personal favorite. Just give it a try, we may change US coinage yet.

 

How bout a prize for last place?

 

That is really cute. Even got the reeded edges too.

 

Yes, the satisfaction of knowing that your design could be chosen to be on United States coinage if a random Mint official would visit this page and see your design

 

Last place prize will be a badly damaged, holed, polished and bent Lincoln Memorial cent. Or an ugly (black spots, we will call them "toning") proof 1990-S Lincoln cent that someone on ebay sent me as a free gift.

 

My design

Thanks for a great contest. Here's my shot at it. My poor artistry is supposed to depict an olive branch and sword in the eagle's mouth.

 

Well, this is my poor cut and paste coin. This would be the commemorative for the 250th anniversary of the United States. The reverse would have the Statue of LIberty, along with the both E Pluribus Unum and In God We Trust. You would be able to get this coin in either one ounce silver or one ounce gold.
