Thank you for taking the time to read the details of our NEW competition!

ABOUT US

We are Coinographic.com. Our company has been formed for the sole purpose of creating high quality, exquisite, Physical coins of eminence.

We hosted many similar competitions over on Litecointalk / Reddit.  You can find more details about these competitions from the News Page on our website.

We recently hosted a competition here on Bitcointalk for a solid gold physical Bitcoin design - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=693176.0.  When this coin is produced we believe it will be the most exclusive and exquisite physical Bitcoin ever minted.




THE COMPETITION

It’s now time for us to create some physical bitcoins for the budget enthusiast…

This competition will offer 2 grand prizes and 8 runners up prizes in our search for 2 new physical Bitcoin designs.  As with our other coins, it’s extremely important to us that the design of our coins come right from within the heart of the communities that drive them.

We are looking for talented designers to create 2 new coin designs;
Bitcoin Tenth (0.10 BTC) – This coin will be a .999 silver plated brass coin
Bitcoin Half (0.50 BTC) – This coin will be a .999 gold plated brass coin

Both of these coins will carry the exact same dimensions;
Diameter: 38mm
Thickness: 3mm


Please note that a space should be left of the rear of the design for a hologram that is 34mm in diameter – leaving you 4mm around the reverse diameter for some flourishing.

We DO NOT require a hologram design nor do we require a box design for this competition; please design the coin front only.

THE DEADLINE FOR ALL SUBMISSIONS IS THE 31ST OCTOBER 2014, 22:00 FORUM TIME




HOW IT WILL WORK

After the submission period ends, all designs will be put to the community for voting in a separate thread. The bounty will be split as follows;

Silver Plated Brass Coin:
1st Place: Fully funded coin (0.10 BTC .999 silver plated brass), + 2 Bitcoins.
2nd-5th Place: Will each receive 0.25 BTC.


Gold Plated Brass Coin:
1st Place: Fully funded coin (0.50 BTC .999 gold plated brass), + 2 Bitcoins.
2nd-5th Place: Will each receive 0.25 BTC.





PROMOTION

As with all our competitions, we will be focusing our efforts in promoting this forum post over the coming weeks. This will be done through press releases and social media. Our aim is to help further raise awareness of digital currencies and attract talent to the Bitcointalk community. If you're already a user of Bitcointalk and know of some fantastic graphic designers, we encourage that you inform them of this thread.




GOOD LUCK!

We wish you all the best of luck with your submissions. With every competition, we look forward to the unique, exciting designs and innovative ideas that you, the community, bring. We are especially excited to see how we can apply these qualities to our new coins.

If you have any questions regarding this competition, please don't hesitate to contact us via our website or alternatively post your question directly in this thread. Thank you!

I know there are lots of factors involved when it comes to this, but can you give us a rough estimate of the sale price of the 0.1 and 0.5 BTC coins?
This will help when it comes to coming up with a suitable design for each coin.

Thanks

Could a template with design requirements be provided? This could be a visual structure to contain the design work.

Thank you

They will be limited by a production run of 2000 coins but they are not numbered

Should all of the coins be round?

Should we keep the designs only gold / silver or are we allowed to add color?

Should entrants refrain from pointing others to vote in this contest? I understand this can be a gray area, but the more clarification we can get on this the better.

Are we allowed to use some or all of a design that we submitted for the previous contest? I'm not planning to but in case someone else would like to it will be best to clarify this now.

I would like to know the answer to these questions as well.  I might submit a revised version of my last design, but would like to know if this is acceptable before putting work into it. Thanks.

The coins do not have to be round

Designs Can be a mix of colour, fot example you might want some gold played highlights on your silver coin, please Keep to just silver or gold though

Pointing others to vote in the contest is fine so long as voters are not enticed

Yes you can modify and submitted designs from the previous contest

Hi

I would like to submit a design - if the design is not perfect (eg - colours) do you have a designer who polishes off the final design?

Thanks
