I think there could be a very valid argument here, if only it was presented in a more respectful manner. Since this is a discussion of the coin design then maybe some constructive ideas could be thrown out by those involved in the other CITO events. AZTech had some good, well presented, thoughts. I especially like the idea of an Arizona CITO's series (the series could grow if future CITO events are established). I think the current design is good (with the exception of my earlier comments) and I also think it was created to represent Arizona and not just Phoenix. However, there could most likely be a better design that encapsulates the entire state better. It will be hard for Brian and Jake to know what that design is though until some ideas are given out from those in Tucson and other areas.

In response to the "disgruntled hiker" on the sign:
That was about 80% joke and 20% actual feedback on the coin. While I myself couldn't think of a more appropriate image (especially this early in the design phase) it was my first gut reaction when I saw it.
