Hello all,
With my quarterly month away over, I can now get to finally nailing the coin project's launch for you. I'm finalizing a quote for tokens, and finishing preparing the Indiegogo launch. I'll update people on this thread (and think it could usefully be stickied). One final question - would people prefer tokens at 0.8" or 1" size?
With a little providence, the project will be fully launched and be "open to orders" (on Indiegogo) by the election.
I don't pretend to be the best at this job, but I will say we'll get there in the end!

0.8 inches is 2.03 CM, or 20.3mm, which is slightly smaller than a US/Cad nickel (21mm).
1 inch is 2.54 cm or 25.4mm, which is slightly bigger than a US/Cad quarter (24mm).
Personally, I would prefer the 25.4mm (1 inch)

I, too, would prefer 1" coins.

1" seems better to me, too.

I am also interested in the design of the coins, is there a preliminary sketch or design available?

Would Talossa consider releasing a Ningi? From "Hitchihker's Guide..." this is a triangular rubber coin 6,800 miles along each side. Eight can be exchanged for a Triganic Pu.
I would prefer that to the current sizes on offer.

Barring Eiric's idea, which would be fun to see if it can be accomplished, I'd say the 1" coin would be the best option.
