Design contest: Making coins and banknotes

10 posts

» Quick access to the last post

Hey everyone, coinsnnotes here.

I want to create a new currency based on silver for our town and our store. So I'm going to run a contest, design a coin or banknote and the winner will get a 50 dollars voucher in our store if the design is accepted. :)

Use programs like photoshop or draw it, be creative. :)

The banknote or coin must have the currency written in grams.

So like 10 gram or more on the bill and 1 gram or more on the coins.

Good luck and ...
ready, set, go!

Is there a cut off date? I'm pretty slow off the mark with all of this ususally.
Well not really, but as soon as possible would be great!

I contacted several mints to create coins, a full fledged minted prototype coin would cost me 2000 usd :S

I also contacted the bank of Canada to create a silver backed paper currency, they need to get back on me on that one.  

If you can design that would be great.

What's "our town". I think I understand "our store" (is it the coinsnnotes site?).
Yep, the town of Wassenaar. Not just our store. The idea is that the currency is based on silver. So on the bills and coins you have the amount of silver that it's worth. Most importantly, the banknotes have to be printed on exsisting silver stockpiles. We start with selling them on our website and then we introduce them. Of course, for it be legal, we can't call it currency. Rather checks. When the dollar and euro collapses it's an idea to keep the town alive. I already have it patent pending and investors ready with an Alaskan and Chinese supplier ready to print and mint.

In fact I'm posting info about it today.

UPDATE:
I'll just leave this here.

Please vote on the better design.

I like the lady coin. :)

I concur  The one with the woman looks good.  The one with the lines kind of reminds me of a peace dollar without the eagle
Daniel, I have a design...have I missed the boat?
