perhaps the most retarded idea I've ever had

To be honest, I'd rather spring for something a little classier than ChrisChan and the edgelord 'Fuck the Banks' slogan.

Just the Kiwi farms logo or maybe the kiwi in a bowl of soup from a previous merch drive and a reminder that 2020 was annus horribilis on the back, or a memorial of the :autism: puzzle piece now disabled in our posts... or something.

For the novelty, I'd buy one of the original; but I'd potentially buy much more of a non-embarrassing design.
 
I'd absolutely be in. (And I second the idea of C-Quarters and W-Quarters :lol:)

Besides that, I suggest:
Front: Keep it simple. Make it sort of like a US coin, with the Kiwi logo, "KIWI FARMS" above, and the year below. Stick a motto somewhere on the side if anyone comes up with a really good one.
Back: Maybe come up with a few "iconic" designs from history, like the Sonic Totem, a pair of crossed tiger-striped Deagles, an ear of corn, or what-have-you. Then sell a collector's folder to store your collection in 🇮🇱

Alternatively: make every back CWC's mugshot :c
 
Honestly...this is a cool idea. I can put it on my "i love me" wall. Be a great conversation starter. Maybe add a certificate of authenticity for another 5 bucks just for the lolz.
 
if you catch me in a good week im fucking down (your merch runs are short and I always miss them)

You should at least draw up a prototype on what you are envisioning and post that to help people deicide. As far as just going on your word yea I would buy one! Ill put it right next to my trump sheckel from Israel. ( not a joke those are real lmao )
 
I've been debating what to do for the next merch run and due to the memes of the day I'm looking into a custom silver round mint.

First idea I have was
Front: KF logo and and the text "Kiwi Farms" above / "Fuck the Banks", below
Reverse: CWC's head in profile with a tiara like the Queen of England on Commonwealth coin mints with "In Sonichu we Trust"

Someone suggested $5 over spot for the coin as a sales price (i.e. $27.22 per oz [spot price], $5 markup, then shipping).

I'm not being facetious I am an insane person and I want to mint my own coins for fun. How many people are interested?

Whether or not this goes through depends heavily on manufacturing and what they have as minimum orders.
So, if you happen to be in the industry, email me <jcmoon@pm.me>.

Since julay was my first thread that I chewed through, laughed at, cried at, and then promptly moved on from, I’d love a shoutout for it.

I would want a nice classy side profile of Chris. I would personally want one of golden age Chris but if we're shooting for an endorsement we may be getting Ben Franklin whether we like it or not. Maybe clean up this iconic headshot.

considering translating "Banking is Tyranny" into latin for the front tho
I don't believe "banking" is a participle expressed in a single word in Latin. Taking a look at my Latin lexicon, you could do something like argentariae tyrannis [sunt], which means "banks [are] for (or belong to) tyrants."

yeah apparently (according to Lewis and Short) argentariam facere is the act of being a banker. So you could do something with faciens argentiam (banking/being a banker) but it doesn't sound great. I'm interpreting tyrannis above as a dative of advantage, which would make it "banks are to the advantage of tyrants." But if there's any other Latin autist here with a different idea, go for it.

I love the idea but I would definitely wait until silver goes down a little. We're seeing the highest silver prices in a long time. I don't want you or anyone else to get fucked when the market settles down a little.

I imagine that this little bump is more than temporary, and it could settle around $30/oz for the foreseeable future. I'd also guess that most people here are a couple of decades away from retirement and so even the impact of the spread will have long disappeared when we're forking one of these over for our nursing home drumming lessons:

 
1) Would the coins be pure silver?
2) Would there be a minimum order?
3) Are coins going to be tied to the market value of silver like "normal" bullions?
