$100 Ca$h prize
Contest end date: Monday September 12, 2016
Contest end time: (8:00PM) 20:00 hours PST.
Payment: PayPal

This is an opportunity for you to show your real creativity for logo design. This is for a business that sells rare coins and currency. Ideally, would like a 1970's/1980's appeal. A very professional appeal. The business is located in Castro Valley, California USA.

Remember, this logo has to look really good. The design will be the new storefront banner, will be on business cards, and of course the website.

Let your creativity flourish. You have real design skills? Do you have an eye for creativity? Lets see what you can do. May the best design win, good luck and have fun.;):xf.wink:

Update
Name is now Castro Valley Coin. It's no longer Castro Valley Coin and Currency

@worldexchange, what do you think about these elements to use?
Do you want a logo with icon or just play with fonts?
Where do you want an icon? On the left of the title or the title below the icon?

I do not like this logo and the full name of the business is 'Castro Valley Coin'. The logo looks too cartoon. I am looking for a more professional appeal; a 1980s professional appeal. Attention to detail is paramount for $100 prize.

This is an open design contest. There are countless coin/numismatics dealers that has been around for decades. There are countless historic organizations dealing in antiquities and collectibles. Do your due diligence by researching these organizations, check out their websites, check out their logo.

@worldexchange, you sell just coins?
Rare coins and Paper notes (U.S. and foreign), buy and sell precious metals (silver, gold, platinum), cash for gold, buy silverware/silver flatware/silver centerpieces, etc.

The face looks too much like a bug. I would recommend going for another concept.

Not really liking this color, logo, and font. As I recommended to DesignPros, do another concept.
Too basic and not really appealing.
Looks like a seal to a foreign (non U.S.) government.

To all of you, I would consider looking at the following designs, logos, and concepts to get a better idea. I am not sure if all of you are researching antique, coin/numismatics, collectible firms.

Check these out...

Hope this helps everyone!!!!​

Thank you for the feedback. I made the changes:Show attachment 38306
I think you're seriously onto something. Work on some more details of the face. I am looking for a unique shadow type appearance that's kind of hard to explain. I will post other samples. Try making it look like the portrait on a U.S. paper currency note too. Theres too much open space within circle. Also put in light plant or leaves or something on the edge where the circle ends.

This is a bit hard to explain on how I want the face to look so I'll to my best. Check out the logos below.
