Hello all.
I am in need of a logo for our local coin club.
Can anyone assist.

It is going to be our three counties on a coin with "Tri-County", "Coin Club" around the rim, and Est. 1950 on the coin.

If anyone is interested, please let me know.
I will pay with coins, coins that are worth more than face value.

Thanks!
Jordan

Here's a picture you can have ! Suppose you could put the three counties on the three horses or below the word coin club.

Here is the other side of the coin ! It is not perfect as I was in a hurry and wanted to just give you some ideas.

I think that second picture would work great. I like the lettering, how it appears to be "embossed" and not just there.
He is the rough draft I had in my head, now in 1's and 0's:

And here is the county outline:

Can you get the outline of the county to appear embossed as well? I think I would like the SW corner of Mercer and NE corner of Allen pretty much touching the rim.
And this one is easy, one with and without the county names inside.

I really appreciate your help!

Jordan I didn't know if you needed the picture like you had it or how the first sample was done in a triangle?


So far the number 8 image appeals the best. Maybe others can give some input into which is the most appealing.

Use a triskelion, that would be really cool. Just an idea. I found this one and it is a neat design of a triskelion. The one on the flag of Isle of Man just doesn't do it for me but this one is nice, sleek and simple.

Yep, I took off shortly after I posted that though. I was there till about 2:30 then I figured I'd better git before I spent all my cash.

I'm afraid I don't remember which table was AB coins, this was the first time I've been to that show and outside of Fairfields I didn't see anything familiar. Had a lot of fun though.

Lagrange isn't far from where I live but I've never been to Strawsers. Do you get any good deals there?

Some things go cheap, some go for way more.

Then you can click on the Coin Catalog link on the right to see what is all going to be there.
Over 500 Lots, but he doesn't waste any time. He is the quickest auctioneer I have been to.
Normally quite a few key date there, not all junk.
Maybe see ya there?

Oh geez, I wish you hadn't said anything. I checked out that auction and now I'm thinking about going. There's actually some things I might have a shot at.

Isn't that pathetic. Gawd, I need an intervention. *LOL*

Well, if ya see a dumpy old guy with a blue Eddie Bauer hat and glasses desperately trying to placate a thoroughly mad eight year old girl and still drool at the coins that'll be me.

Sorry, I thought I had replied.
Very nice work. I really enjoy #8 as well, without the 2006. I would not mind something there, but I would prefer to have one logo, not updating every year. I modified one without the 2006 and it looks good, in my opinion.
I printed them all out and am bringing them to out meeting tonight to see who likes what, and we will go from there.

Thanks for all your help!
Jordan
