Sorry Santoro - I think you have to put out two designs this year. Excellent designs to choose from!

No..  It's displaying the ones linked from other sites, just not the ones that were 'attached' to the other thread..  It works fine in IE, just not in Firefox (for me)..  No big.  I've seen 'em all now and voted  :)

I voted for MrC's front and back designs because, well, they're F-ing awesome, but can we just change the 2007 to 2008 on dstone's designs and call next year's done as well?

If there is enough demand, do have a specific reason why both cannot be produced?

No, but the reality is that we have struggled to build demand to order one run of both metal finishes in the past.

I like RandyT's front with DSTone's back.  I think they would look great together.  That is the only combination that I would even consider over Mr.C's masterpiece.

Why not do one run of one and one run of the other?

Because like he said, we've struggled to get enough orders.  It's the setup costs for the 2nd design that would be a killer IIRC.  The pricing fo nickel and brass are similar.  I remember because I once asked a similar questions about nickel availability and since the nickel coins are just nickel coated brass, it's not a big difference.

I'm not speaking for Santoro of course, but I'm pretty sure I'm right about it being the set up costs and minimum orders he'd need for 2 designs that make it prohibitive.

Great designs this year by the way!  I really can't choose between Dstone's and MrC's either....
first off your and idiot

Man I love the internet, haha.

We'd have $400 more in die charges, and based on the polls so far, demand for one of the runs would be low.
