    Yes

    Back in 2007 I asked Daniel Carr if he had ever thought of making a Challenge Coin or some type of medal for forum users, he said there had been some talk about it. After that I never heard anymore about it.

    It may be time, what do you think?

    Maybe I could win one from @Paradisefound. Edit, that's just a joke.

    Depends on the cost

    Edited with new ideas

    Shinny coin with a motto of "Ricko approve"?

    Or how about a double strike wheatie medal with "In CU we trust" on the obverse and "DOUBLE Cents" on the reverse?

    If the forum hosts were on-board, sure. Otherwise, it might cause some hard feelings.

    Of course! Although the gold and platinum might be a bit pricey.

    The possibilities are endless.. :D

    If a nice silver medal existed and I could afford it I would buy one for sure.

    Would PCGS slab all these medals? Maybe some sort of authentication-only (ungraded) descriptive-label slab.

    If not, then I doubt our host would be on-board -- especially given the certainty some of these medals would be slabbed by ANACS or ICG.

    Well, how cool would this be?

    I can see us all in a bar somewhere near a big coin show. Somebody pulls out their PCGS challenge coin and lays it on the counter. Last one to get their's out has to buy a round.

    Why not? All kinds of medals are made for various conventions, who made those medals. Did/does any care?

    There is another forum that a member had produced medals, for a cost, for forum members (and I think anyone interested).

    The predominant, IMO, impression the medal should be is to convey the spirit of whatever it represents.

    2 cents.

    I think it is a great idea....Since I collect challenge coins, it would be a nice addition. Dan does really nice work. I hope he considers this project. Cheers, RickO

    Actually the design elements would influence my desire. CU home page with categories for the obv. and the Banned symbol for the rev. would be cool. Peace Roy

    considering how much he's benefited from the forum membership, if he did issue one it should probably be given to a lot of the members as a token of appreciation.

    Of course.

    Did someone say it's "not collectable"?? :#

    How about a rare parking lot strike?

    I doubt it will happen now, it's clear there is no majority for the production of this item, as the vote at the time of this postings the Yes vote was 48%, just 35 votes with 25 no votes and 12 votes for it Depends on the price.
    Along with getting host approval and what would be a clear majority of registered users I doubt this will ever happen. Of course if it did I could see some of the non registered users might sign up, who knows.
    Maybe in ten more years the question may come up again...
