Bronco Challenge coin

[dangerzone79]

@dangerzone79 I have decided to send this one to my dealer for helping with my res change and saving me ALOT of money

I would urge you to make more without the BRONCO branding font or even the word but keep the images. Pretty damn cool man.

Maybe the forum guys would let me use bronco6g?

Alright so I went through the application process with ford for the right to use the bronco logo. Pretty easy but my past experiences with huge companies did not go well for things like these. I am just a small one man operation making custom coins for ppl.

Can I ask how you made the coin? Drop-stamped? Resin-cast? What are the materials?

Looks very nice. Personal inquiry on the creative aspects of it.

Really nice work. If you ever do decide to make the coins available, you just need to avoid the trademarks. IMO, you don't even need the Bucking Bronco image and Bronco underneath. The obverse is a fantastic design without and having the silhouette of the Bronco there is no mistaking the target audience. Including a simple headlight outline on the reverse would tie in the modern 6G branding without having to deal with trademarks and permission.

Yes thank you. I will revise the design and see how it goes.

You should call it Broncoin. Maybe Ford will let you pay for the Bronco with it like Tesla is allowing Bitcoin

I'm curious what you are using for your planchets? Ever give thought to using junk silver halves (grinding the existing obverse/reverse to eliminate the current designs)? They can be had relatively cheap (especially if you use the 40% silver JFK halves).

It was engraved with a fiber laser and then lots of hand finishing. I have a video of the process here it's made from Cupronickel a marine grade alloy of copper and nickel, figured it would play nice with the MGV seats

I engrave everything. Copper,brass,bronze,cupronickel,silver,stainless steel, titanium, Zirconium, and even titanium Damascus shown in the picture

Awesome! I need more lasers in my workshop, clearly!

Maybe an ill tempered sea bass too?

 

[ummie4]

so I took yours guys advice and removed the trademarks... i think anyways not sure if wildtrak text is trademarked?? It just a more general 4x4 explorer type of a coin now.
