As you most likely do not know, August 2012 marks the 100th anniversary of the American occupation of Nicaragua. Although this is a very obscure topic, I think it will amount to many nice coin designs.

A Bit more info on the occupation of Nicaragua:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United...of_Nicaragua

THE RULES:

The coin design MUST have a Reverse and a Obverse or else you shall not be counted.

The coin design can be either hand-drawn or computer generated, HOWEVER, you will not win purely for your awesome Photoshop skills.

To enter this contest you must have a minimum of 50 quality posts.

The pictures may be submitted now and until August 7th.

This post MUST have at least 10 entries by that time or else no one gets awarded.

There will be three winners for 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place.

And now THE PRIZES!

1st Place: 5 pre-1970 darkside coins (NO U.S, Aussie, or Canadian)

2nd Place: 3 pre-1975 darkside coins (NO U.S, Aussie, or Canadian)

3rd Place: 1 ABSOLUTLY RANDOM DARKSIDE COIN. Anywhere from 1800-2012. All Countries are possible


And with this I say, good luck, and may the odds be ever in your favor!


P.S. I will post my coin soon, when draw It!

EDIT: I changed the topic, well for it to be nicer. :)

Coin designs which include horses and ships seem to gain wide approval.

I'm interested, and will be taking full advantage of designing it via computer seeing as though I have no artistic talent

Thanks guys for replying! That makes four of us I believe. But wait, jmorgan, you need to have 50 or more posts. I'll consider changing that rule, but you should get a bit more posts in as well. ;)

This is funny because I swear I was just thinking about "what if we have a coin designing contest on CCF?" I'm glad you put that into action :)

Liberia or Palau (the most involved countries) it is!

This is a great contest idea and I will be sure to look for the entries.

I'd love to participate but I really don't I will have an entry. But there's lots of time to try ...so maybe ....
