I was playing around with photoshop and although I suck at it,I came up with the Pic below.....What do you guys think about something like this for the next medal???

That's a great photoshop and should be used as is somewhere to symbolize the fellowship.

The designer, Daniel Carr, previously suggested a dragon for the obverse in 2009 and reusing the reverse to save on funds.

A nice idea. To have that struck in the highest relief possible would be great. And I see that Ol'Dan got up off of his 'throne' to paticipate (left side of picture).

I also like the idea of a dragon on the next medal.....

Picture this....A dragon, representing those "key" dates we all dream of owning. A knight or knightess,(love the female form on a coin)  standing along side the dragon of his/her dreams willing to beat him to the treasure he/she has sought for a lifetime....represented by a treasure chest. All on one medallion......(more later)

Things will be a tad bit different this time around. We are getting a bit wiser as we have two years of medallions under our belt. Again we are faced with rising precious metal costs so there is going to be NO fooling around in 2009!!! Will keep you posted!

Maybe having Knights fighting the dragon.

Heaven Knows we have had to battle a few "dragons" to get where we are.  Members who have been on this ride for awhile know what I'm refering to.

Whatever topic is selected, it will be a fun quest, as always.

I'd rather see a living dragon than one that's been killed. As long as I don't have to look at any  Squids singing a song about it.  ::)

"Mac the magic destroyer lived in the sea,
and frolicked in the autumn mist in a place
called the #$@&ing  Med..."

Why not over strike JFK halves for one of the next medals? It would do away with planchet episodes which may only get worse with rising silver prices and limited planchet producers. Personally, half dollar size coins are my favorite.

Now if we can get Daniel to do the GREATEST MEDALLION EVER CREATED or the MOST BEAUTIFUL MEDALLION EVER CREATED I will be a happy coin collector. Perhaps a medallions with BOTH a Knight and Knightess as we have never gotten together with our Ladies have we? But she has to be absolutely stunning as us Knights expect the best!!! ;D

That is because OldDan will not let us.....he has all of the Knightesses with him.

Darn I forgot about that little problem! If we go to Old Dan's for a photo the medallions would then be a GROUP photo but still just one knight? ;)
