Thanks, I had to look it up again, but the obverse is a Roettiers design from the mid 1700's.  It is one of the best shipping scenes that I've seen on a coin or medal.  I only ever saw one of these for sale, but I'm on the lookout if it ever comes back up for sale. :)

Same here, just have very little time and it has taken me 3 hours just to do another design (more like edit one of Stef's coin). Plus, I gotta start working on the new house we just bought.

Still lots of time, guys.  I think she said that it'll run through the 18th of October.  Looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with. :)

Looks good to me, a very nice design.
Maybe one small suggestion, if you don't mind :)

It may help on the obverse were you have written Coins Are Fun. Instead of a downward angle you can spread them from wing tip
too wing tip. Just like a legend of the coin. The rest looks great

Some great offerings, already. Here is my design. It's a simple rendering, hopefully not too amateuish. The Reverse eagle's image was taken from a drawing by Mario Perez. Thanks for the chance.--Jim
