This project was one of my all-time favorites. In a moment of weakness, I had gone on a coin buying shopping spree on eBay. Ironically, the next week at work, they approached me about making some coin designs and to say I was excited would be an understatement. The coins were part of a much larger branding project that I had undertaken. They feature a defense combine logo that I developed, a unified typeface used on all of the other materials, and little details like ninja stars to subtly pay tribute to martial arts.

When you think of becoming a graphic designer, you probably don't picture yourself designing a set of coins. When you're a creative in a small company, though, you sometimes get to do some cool projects that you never imagined you'd be doing.
