Oh by the way can you describe again your idea of a coin with bossman? I might give it a shot if you dont mind

The way we framed CWC in the puzzle piece was really a work of genius because not only did it add a great texture to the final product it framed his face very complementary to the round's -uh- roundness.

So you frame his head with cards, use a J (of course) and a 3. The site is 13, and 13 is one of the worst hands you can possibly get in Blackjack. It's thematic.

Card fonts should have serifs and are usually somewhat stylized. There's preexisting fonts made to look like classic playing card fonts, though an artist can do much better I'm sure.
Also IMO the cards should have suits shown, I'm sure there is something symbolic that could be done there. Clubs historically symbolize creativity and work which I think would be a good meaning to put on a coin commemorating 13 years of existence.
 
do you want his face to be just in front of the cards or you want them to be incorporated with them?
like the jack card to have his face?

Ngl I love the design but honestly I think a kingcobra memorial coin would be the coolest idea. I know it might seem like exploitation but idk, I would buy either one but I think Cobes is a long standing legacy and giving Cobes the lucky 13 as a gothic bad boy would be cool. That and I think we all hope Bidsman is going be around for future coin drops.
 
There’s a 2026 thread for coin design:

Also, alternate idea of News Ham on obverse of coin:
During today’s MATI ep, the OG News Hamm made a comeback, and it was glorious. He was missed by many. Also, ideas were floated regarding who’s profile to feature on the 13th anniversary coin for 2026. What does everyone think about having a distinguished & dignified News Hamm as the profile art featured on the obverse?

Any iteration from the entire News Ham Family would make great merch. Either for future sales or on top of this years coin sale too. Errrbody in da klub luv da news hams.

I think of this one as the Francis E. Dec Hamm.

There may already be a thread with all collected iterations of news hams, iirc, most that have been used on mati live can be found throughout the mati thread, including some that haven’t yet debuted. It’d be cool to have them all collected & showcased, including miscellaneous ham art, all in one place for easy reference & posterity. If anyone knows of a thread like this already, let it be known. (I remember seeing one a while back, probably in the Art & Lit sub forum, but can’t find it now.) Endless is the potential with this here news ham fam.
