    Yes that is idea, but in order for it to work there's quite a bit of photo editing involved to make it so you can tell what your looking at. The multiple truck images may be a tall order since the coin itself is only 2in in diameter. The truck images I think may end up on other coins after we get done with the "universally" generic for lack of a better term, coin. For the first coin I believe we're looking for something that encompasses the forum using symbolism and text....I think :notsure: @CaptAmerica can explain it better possibly.

    Alright, since the tacomas pic can't get shoved in there, i think this would do. and i say keep the gold and blue on the front of the coin. i like the look. with the toyota emblem in white. so instead of the trucks, you have the word TOYOTA TACOMA in similar styling to how TOYOTA is written on the pro grille. nice and clean look. and where i had said to put TACO on the back, now you just put 2017. I'd be into this coin.

    Has a nice classic look to it and would be a mean coin. and do the edge like in the pic. has a tire treadish look, but isn't so blatant to be a tire tread.

    and instead of writing out "TRD PRO TRD SPORT TRD OFFROAD" on the coin, you just put all the words that go with models. so you put the words "TRD PRO SPORT OFFROAD 4x4 SR5 PRERUNNER X-RUNNER

    I like that idea Brian! :thumbsup: Mine is actually a basemodel, but I don't think that one really has the same ring to it. :anonymous:

    Many different ideas about the design so far. We all have different tastes for the most part. I am a 'Keep it Simple' person, less is more so to speak. I would be ok leaving it up to CaptAmerica as it was his idea.

    Im kinda this way too.. I think if you start adding every model of truck name on the coin it gets a little cluttered. Ive always been A K.I.S.S. person but i am all for having a nice design on the coin.

    I think everyone should PM captamerica their ideas, he picks his top three, then everyone votes on it. Boom.

    The models are irrelevant I think.

    I think everyone should choose from them. Vote on the top three, then vote on the final one. What Cap likes and I like may be two different things. Give everyone a chance to vote

    Your probably right when you start thinking of all the non-Tacoma members out there too.

    Pretty much...yes. Something not so specific to a particular gen, but TacomaWorld itself. Future coins can go gen specific, and that also got a LOT of traction.

    I know what I personally prefer, but ultimately this is a TW membership/tcBob decision.

    Precisely.

    By the way...I still don't have any "official" submission PMs. I know @ERMB was close to some final designs; Scott, any of those "good to go" as your submissions?
