[QUOTE="Kirkuleez, post: 1457765, member: 36864"]I have read many threads speaking to the fact that our modern coins are not nearly as beautiful as they once were. I can not agree more, our coins are stale and lack the artistic expression that once graced American coinage. So lets see if we can help. The contest. Design your own coin for circulation. There are no guidelines that must be followed, just have fun and see what you can come up with. Draw it on a napkin, cut out images and paste them on construction paper, use the latest high tech imaging software, whatever. Post your design on this thread and if you like, a story behind the design. There must be at least ten submissions for the contest to be valid. I will give one month for all entries (contest will end on July 5, 2012) and we will vote on the winner. [B]The winner will receive a BU Morgan dollar.[/B] Here is my feeble attempt. I hope that mine gets blown away, but in the unlikely event that it doesn't, mine is ineligible. [ATTACH]181544.vB[/ATTACH] Good luck and get to work. :smile [B]There is one rule. If you do not like someones design, keep it to yourself. But by all means, complement the ones that you do like.[/B][/QUOTE]
