What does the three-legged beachball signify on the official FUN convention coin? Or is that a fan?
This thread is useless without pictures unless you attended FUN, so here's a scan.

The three legs represent an easel holding up a spinning wheel. This represents the roulette-like game in the kids' section where kids spin to win some prize. The coins states "Raising the Next Generation of Numismatists" which was the show's theme this January. And the FUN program's front page show this design with the added words "spin for fun."
My strategy is about collecting what I intend to keep, not investing in what I plan to sell.
Thanks! I would never have guessed that. I thought it might be a beach scene, a large fan, or a spaceship.
Too bad we got the correct answer so quickly. I was looking forward to all the other answers.
