yes i would be just let me know what you can come up with.

I'd be down for that, a 405th commemorative coin would be sweet. You could even do a contest and have members submit ideas. Then have the members vote on the one they like the best.

I agree with that.

I would be very interested in this.

Just wanted to say something, the guy had the math wrong when calculating paypal's cut Its all just a matter of algebra... (they charge 2.9% on the full ammount you give them, he forgot to account for that)
x= what you give paypal
y=paypal's cut

y + 20 = x --> x = y + 20
y= x (.029) + .3 --> x = (y -.3) / .029

y + 20 = (y -.3) / .029
.029 ( y + 20) = y - .3
.029y + .029(20) = y -.3
.029(20) + .3 = y - .029y = .971y
[.029(20) +.3] / .971 = y <---- this is the part we are interested in
= .906 (or .91 rounded up) NOT the .88 he thought...

so, to clear 20$ you have to give paypal 20.91
just swap the (20) for whatever ammount you want to clear from paypal. so if you wanted to clear 30$... give them 31.21

Just thought you would want to know exacts if this works out so you don't end up losing a few cents on every transaction. Paypal legally has to disclose all their charges else they would not be alowed to function as a financial business...

Very interested. I think the final price for theRPF coins wound up being like $14 plus shipping so it seems very reasonable.

I think that Adam should be the final one to okay the design though. If this is going to be a semi-official thing, you should get the blessing of the boss man.

This project is going to need a very good 3D modeler/designer too to be successful like the 405th rings (and even those lovelies were plauged by real life problems).

Anyway, I'd be willing to slap the money down for 2 ahead of time (app. $30-$40) to get the ball rolling once a design is created and approved.

That sounds awesome! I'm game!

I told adam about the challenge coins, but he didnt know what they were lol

I really love the idea, also if the challenge coins start being awesome, we should create like a yearly coin (coin of 2010) or an elite coin or some other stuff

Its like having real life achievements xD, but you have to buy them lol

That means youd be paying paypal 91cents right? I dont have a paypal but might be getting one soon thats why i dont know
and i think the coin idea is awesome

I think Your right on the final ok, Adam should have the final say. Also I'd be down for two once the final design is approved.

I'd love to put forth potential designs for the coin. I can draw by hand but I'm not so great with photoshop (yet) so I don't know how I would make it look like those coins they show in pics on that thread. So would it work to design something but have someone who is more skilled with digital work to clean up the piece? Cause I'd totally be down for that.

Agreed Adam should definitely give the thumbs up first.
But I think it'd be really great for one side to have the 405th logo

I would be down for a coin...

Coot

first we need to get people to chip in for the die before we can start getting coins

I'd love a 405th coin. Anyone know what filetype is required for the manufacturer?
