    I was in stop and go traffic as is the norm where I live and started looking at people in other cars realizing that the view you get from your car in traffic is, in essense, what you see with coin portraits so here is Simon Bolivar sitting in traffic:

    I start to think I'm going coin crazy.

    I saw some trees on the TV...and Straight away I think of the vermont state quarter...because that's what they resembled...same when I hear the word 'Morgan' or something.

    A friend of mine at my gym, whenever I see her profile my mind goes straight to George III's on the side of coins.


    I liked youre pic so much...I thought I'd have a go and show you it. (I hope you don't mind)


    I turned this...

    The hardest part was trying to make it look like she was on the inside of the car...still don't think I sorted that problem.

    :lol: Good one :)

    okay...without doubt its not just traffic that gives you a coins eyes view...I was looking through old photos of the depression and I couldnt help thinking I recognized one of the men standing in line. I realized it was the much disliked son of England’s George III, George V of Hannover who had fallen on hard times

    Proof:

    Roger bannister finishing a race...and his legs on the 2004 50 pence coin.

    I coloured the legs in...before I discovered every pic of Roger running was in black and white lol.
