pacman529 Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 There seems to be a lack of info about how to go about getting a coin that one has designed actually minted. can anyone give me some information about this that might be useful? i'm currently in the process of trying to finalize a design that i'd like to have minted, but i have no idea how.

+ThePetersTrio Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Did you read the pinned topic at the top of this board? You can approach vendors with your idea and get quotes. Many vendors have artists that will help you with your design (for a fee). Just FYI - this thread will likely be closed as these types of posts can become an advertisement for vendors which isn't allowed. Good luck with your project. Quote Link to comment

+tekkguy Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 There's actually not a lack of information, there's just a lack of information about the process on this website. Groundspeak doesn't mint coins, so the best they can do is give you a list of approved vendors who do. Each of those vendors has their own methods and process, and I'm sure they'll be glad to help you. You might also PM people who have had coins minted before if you have questions about a specific vendor. Quote Link to comment
Flying Spaghetti Monster Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 Great answer tekkguy. For exact information about the process, quotes, timing, etc. please reach out to a few of the vendors in the pinned thread above and they can walk you through their processes. Good luck.

+Mauison Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 If there is a certain coin design(s) you especially like, you could email that person and ask which vendor they used and ask about the experiences they had with that vendor. Do that with a few coin designs you like, and you should get some good information about where to start. Quote Link to comment
