Competition to design Dangish money!

Postby Dungeyland » Wed Jun 01, 2011 1:23 pm

Well, this isn't really a competition, because, you know, I don't have anything to pay you with virtually. Just some hugs :hug: and a few cookies. Basically, I'm looking for somebody awesome who's kind enough to design for me the Dangish coinage and notes. The Dangish currency is called "Pound Sterling" just like in the UK, but there are different denominations, as it isn't decimal. It's just like pre-decimalisation Britain, so it's divided into units of 12, and floats, but it worth quite a lot in comparison to the USD. That doesn't matter, I'm just here for the coins and notes :D

Coins:

For all coins, could one side have a head, you know, of a young women who's our queen (the picture I use is the one of Kirsten Dunst), from the side. Could heads have around the side: "ELLEN R I D : DBR : OMN REX : F : D : IND : IMP.", please. Tails is up to your designing skills ;), but should have the year, and the name of the coin.

Farthing

The farthing is the lowest valued piece of currency in the Dangish Empire. It is worth 1/4 of a penny, or 1/960th of a Pound. It's the size of a current UK penny, and is copper. The rest's up to you ;)

Half-penny

The half-penny is second lowest, worth, um, half of a penny, and therefore 1/480th of a Pound. It's the size of a modern UK 2 pence coin.

Penny

Ah yes, the penny, worth one penny, and 1/240th of a Pound. Yes, Dangish Pounds are divided into 240 pence. Deal with it. ;) Slightly larger than a 2 pence coin, made of a silvery metal.

Thrupenny bit

The thruppeny bit, worth three pence, or 1/80th of a Pound. It's the shape of a modern 50 pence coin, and can be brass or silver looking, designer's choice.

Shilling

The Shilling, the MAJOR denomination between penny and pound. 12 pence -> 1 shilling. 20 shillings -> 1 Pound. Shillings are quite small for their value, smaller than a farthing, but are definitively silver looking.

Half crown

The Half-Crown, worth 2 1/2 shillings. That's right, THIRTY PENCE. Or 1/8 of a pound. We do have a lot of coins, don't we?. Anyway, the half crown, which is a coin the size of a slightly larger UK 10p coin, with a shiny silver metal used.

Crown

Ah, the Crown. Worth 5 shillings, or 1/4 of a pound. Gold looking, specifically gold, not brass, the size of a modern pound coin.

Sovereign

One sovereign is worth exactly one pound sterling. Large, and specifically gold, it's the size of a two pound coin.

Notes

There are two sides, the heads and for want of a better word, the tails. The heads has the head of the Queen, the denomination, and the "I promise to pay the bearer on Demand the sum of [VALUE] pounds" bit. The notes should look like this:

Image

, but replace "BANK OF ENGLAND" with "ROYAL BANK OF DUNGEYLAND". With the other side, be inventive, but try and use historically significant figures :D

10 shillings

There's a ten shillings note, which the picture above is about, worth half a pound. Size of a small, more squarish note, like the Indian 1 rupee note.

One pound

Just like you Americans have both one dollar coins and bills, we Dangish also have a one pound note :D Same as above, be inventive, different colour of course. Size of a modern five pound note.

Five pounds

Same as above, different colour, size of a modern ten pound note.

Ten pounds

Same as above, different colour, size of modern twenty pound note.

Twenty pounds

Same as above, different colour, size of modern fifty pound note.


If anybody can do this for me, I'll be so grateful. Think of it as a challenge if you need some motivation, and think of the free COOKIES! ;)

For the notes, nothing specific, but for the coins, I listed the metals (brass, gold, etc.,) which should affect the colour ;) Thanks!

I'm rubbish on this sort of thing, so I can't help with the design, but if you've got a Queen, are you sure you want "REX" on the coins? "Rex" is King; "Regina" is Queen. Wasn't sure if you'd noticed, or if it was intentional. Sorry.
