2016 Poker Chips....

Hafta agree with Adam. The TOE will have to make the final decision, but in the litigious society we live in we need to tread carefully when using images of people or cartoons/drawings. Even if I take a picture of a guy re-enacting a German General- if I want to profit from that picture I would need his permission. That is why some photogs have model releases in their camera bags. Ideally we have one of the talented folks here draw a soldier and use that depiction on the coin. I doubt a small group like ours has anything to worry about and IF we were "found out" we'd probably simply get a "cease and desist" order, but why even tempt fate? Let's go with our own design.
