Patreon/Kickstarter "Bill" coins production update!
Added 2020-08-20 15:00:00 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
Erik here, with a brief update on the coins that were created as part of this year's Kickstarter and related items! This year, for our third Challenge Coin reward, and to round out the trio of "Mike, Kevin and Bill" will be Bill Corbett, cast in a copper coin with an antique finish. The design was made by our own graphic artist, Jason Martin.
The details will be easier to see with the antique finish, which will allow the raised parts to show up more clearly.
I hope to provide some in-progress photos from the factory as these go into full production mode, so stay tuned for that!
I'm really excited to get these Bills out to you (folks who were subscribed to our Patreon when the campaign ended)! How many of you have the previous two "DripTrax" coins?
EDIT August 31st: I've updated this post with new photos from the manufacturer:
- Molds
- Coin blanks, pre-plating and color
- Plated, pre-antiquing and enamel coloring
I'll continue to update this post with new photos as we receive them.

2020-09-01 03:21:58 +0000 UTCBeen a Kickstarter backer for several years, but never joined Driptrax so this will be my first coin. Here's another vote for making the prior coins available for purchase!
