Gold Coin

[Rik]

A very nice twist Gary.

Is the coin carved out of a cliff face or has it been dug up out of the ground by an archaeologist?!

I am going to have to have another go at mine!

I see what you mean about the colours Rik but the lighting is excellent.

Thanks for you kind comments Salaam but the temptation to make changes was just too great!

So, here is another attempt and it's still done on my Laptop so will need see what it looks like on my PC later on.

Hope it's not as dull as my first attempt.

Very nicely done, Rik. I think you started something.

Good one Rik. That would make a good challenge.
Here is my attempt.

Nicely done Larry.

The lettering and my design in the middle - you've made it look as though they have been rubbed/worn.
If that's what you were going for, then that's what I see!

And I really like your reflection at the top of the coin.

It seems all of us have missed the look of gold.

Many of the coins look more like copper.

Some variations based on sampled colours from the gold image in the link within my previous post.
