Yeah, I'm at a loss for the minting process, so I tried to cut my losses and tried to design for a little of both arenas (gray levels for minting, visual queues for viewing). I think Pixel is going to help make sure that issue is addressed with this design.
--- Quote ---EDIT 2 ** I would take out the screws from the stars on the back and then do a reverse faceting on the star in the '1' Also loose the shadowing for the main lettering on both sides (v4) as well as around the edge of the coin. These look nice in this form but will be there anyway when minted. I would also shade the number '1' slightly so when minted it will be lower than the word 'TOKEN' Once version 4 is tweaked for minting it should be the best design of any I have seen and one to be coveted in anyone's collection.

I will definitely look into this. I went into this figuring there'd be some adjustments along the line. Great suggestions.
...and thanks for the compliments, as well. :)
Pixel is thinking that the detail in ver 3. might be doable (which surprises me), minus any other design adjustments for depth effects, etc.
Pixelhugger:
The outer rule around BYOAC in version 3 is over .003" which means it should be mintable without any problems. Some of the serifs in the smaller type will likely be a bit lost I'm guessing, but I doubt that'll affect the overall look much.
missioncontrol:
very nice Mr C. and worth the extra wait to you to finalize them..... guess my design doesn't have a chance now.....
They have my vote.... can't wait to see them blinged
Pixelhugger:
FWIW .002" is the absolute minimum line width.
jfunk:
Might I suggest removing the 2007 from one of the sides? (Front would be my choice)
Don't know that it needs to be on both and would allow some more of the detail on the front to be seen...
