I was afraid this was going to get a bunch of people bent out of shape. It's a shame it turned out like this.

And I don't remember who all was not happy with my design, but I have every single saved version of the coin (the final submission was v15) if anyone questions my originality.  I saw someone comparing my coin to another one and while I have to admit the do look similar, I hadn't seen that coin until today.

Also, I probably should have included more of an explanation of what materials were used in my design. I did ask during the competition if using both yellow and white gold was allowed and was told it was.  

Mostly irrelevant though. I agree with polyteam-coin (even though he's destroying my design  ) that voting might be most fair on forums that aren't directly involved. Or maybe reddit?

Or maybe just ask mods from here, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc to vote.

Of course you love your design, and of course you think it's the best, but honestly the gear theme is a little weird.  I've never seen gears associated with bitcoins before.  And like I said before all those little keys are almost impossible to carve into a working coin die.
