+SYOTT Posted August 18, 2009 Share Posted August 18, 2009 I'm just starting the process of making a coin... there's no more info on it than what's being posted now... just getting opinions on the design so far... Being born and raised in Nova Scotia, I'm paying homage to my home and the sport we love to play... this coin hopefully will not be the standard disc, rather the whole design will be cut out instead be gentle please.....

+catsnfish Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 i like the design a lot, but if it is to be a cutout design you may want to increase the size of the heraldic device and possibly add something to tie a few places together, the big loop of the g would be quite fragile as drawn.

+Eartha Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 Looks good, are you related to Welch? Funny, I was going to say it looked like welch's avatar on the G, but it is the Flag of Nova Scotia, and I thought I should stay out of it. But welch was the first thing that came to my mind when i saw it. Not his current avatar, but the one before it was stretched. Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted August 19, 2009 Share Posted August 19, 2009 (edited) I'd also be concerned with the thinness of the "G" (though I love the idea, being a big fan of Nova Scotia). There's another, meatier "G" you might want to consider using: from Podcacher It might work a bit better in terms of making something that won't come apart as easily.

+SYOTT Posted November 24, 2009 Author Share Posted November 24, 2009 Nothing yet... just wanted to see if anyone else was interested... it's a waiting game for when they come in... I'm expecting within the next 2-3 weeks to have them in Pricing and samples as soon as I can Quote Link to comment

+SYOTT Posted December 3, 2009 Author Share Posted December 3, 2009 The proofs are ready... we're waiting on getting them in hand (roughly 2 weeks)... the only detail that I don't have is the price... here's the front, back and icon for the coin... as you can see, it's a 2 inch coin that's wearable (if you choose to do so) Quote Link to comment
