Anyone know anything about the John Wick Gold Coins?

[ultraman]

branches?!?!? you'd have to draw that out on top of one of those coins so i can try and make out what you are seeing. to me the arrows are pointing at a fold or knot in the sash that's going around his/her waist.

if you look at the second pic and compare it to my sketch you can see how i got him holding a bag in the air....the funny thing is in the blurry 1st pic it looks like the silhouette of him holding a severed head... but in the second pic its much more clear that he isn't.

The middle coin is harder to see, but I marked what to me looks like the person is holding a branch and the items at the end are flowers of leaves.
The director on the commentary says the symbol represents peace AND strength. So a sword/shield and maybe a olive branch ? That's why I
wanted more detail if possible.

okay, I think I'm wrong about the flowers. Hopefully a better picture of what it is will be found.

 

[ultraman]

yes ....what we really need is a clean pic of at least the top half of the coin.

I'm sure some original coins will turn up eventually, they obviously made them in bulk for the film.

ok kids i did some serious google-Fu.
i went through all the credits and dug up all the art directors and tracked down the person who made the art for the coin. then got got a hold of an agent!...who is now passing my inquiery about the coin on to "those whom it may concern".
stay tuned.......:cool

you were right she is holding a olive branch:cool

Looking fabulous, nice seeing so many people interested in this project :thumbsup

i could take a crack at casting these if jintosh can 3d print one for me to make a mold of....i'd do them in resin and gold gild them....
although i do work for a jeweler...if i wanted to get super screen accurate i could cast at least 3 of them in 1 oz 24k gold coins and that would be expensive given gold is at $1,300 an ounce.

Okay, when I said I wanted one I wasn't committing to that price

That was a fast response. Is this HIS diagram ? Should I modify my model to match this as far as the leaves and snakes ?

The resin and gilded sounds good. I can get a good 3D print from Shapeways once we settle on the design.

ok just got this in!!!!
10,000 rpf cool points for the ultra!....just had to pull some strings...now i'll just go back and forth and see if i can get some higher res ones!:ninja

jump on it jintosh!

 

[breen2057]

i'll be up to buy one or two but only if they are made of metal. its the only way to do it right.

Kind of wanted a metal one as well, though we'll see what you all come up with.

Kind of looks like a bow at the bottom, not snakes. Maybe tying the branches together?

 

[Rusty85]

Whoa nice work on finding those pics! I'm in for metal as well, maybe even something Gold plated?

 

[ultraman]

i could probably cast them in pewter then electroplate them in gold...i'll have to think on it for a while
