I know im too late and i know this is no where near the quality of the other entries, but hey why not! I know im not an artist but the message is clear, we all enter the steemian universe, a place of harmony, peace , consciousness and respect, as novices, have a bit swim about, build a reputation built on merit then hopefully emerge as whales.
Im not sure why but the ying and yang design resonates with me and to have one part gold plated and the other half with a mirror finish all revolving around the steem symbol, well it just floats my semi numismatic boat.
I just know what qualities and attributes i like in a coin, a simple uncluttered design with a quality finish, just wish i had the design and presentation skills that ive seen displayed in the other entries
