I am in favor of a MAME token for 2005. Start the designs now! |
| Santoro:
I should point out that while the Nickel outsold the Brass BYOAC tokens, it wasn't by a huge margin. I still have more Brass because I got another few thousand from the mint as a 'settlement' for the fact that they omitted the dentils on the dies. The nickel outsold the brass only by something like 20%. The dies have been corrected and if we were to order any more tokens they would have dentils. So far the response to this will not make a batch of MAME tokens worthwhile. 23 possible buyers is not a lot, especially when the minimum order for Nickel is 10,000 and some would only order 100. :( |

Otherwise, I'd order half brass/half nickel. |

One possible compromise is to use one of the generic reverse dies, or to re-use the reverse die that we created for the BYOAC token (the "Happy Guy" side), which has nothing BYOAC-specific. This will cut your die charges (and design/arguing time) in half. --Chris |
