Check out this next round a submissions for the 2018 Steem Silver Round.

There's been a few new submissions since the last post and things are really heating up, and there's still over a week left in the contest for additional submissions. The deadline for submission is Feb 7th, 2018, then the community with vote for the winning design.

Of course the main prize is the design being used on the round, but there are other rewards too. We will guarantee a First place prize of 30STEEM, second place of 15STEEM and 3rd place of 5STEEM. We do hope to be able to offer additional prizes and that will depend on post payouts and any donations received.

If you want to see the first 4 design submissions check out this post

You can also find more information about the design process in the post

Otherwise I'll get on with showcasing this round of submissions.

This first one is from @edxserverus and he depicted a mountian being claimed to claim your reward in the form of a upvote, he also included a QR code that takes you to the homepage of steemit.com. You can see check out his post here.

This next design is from @skeptic and he has chooses some layered elements that hit on the theme 'bringing communities together'. I've always felt that the way steemit is so fluid and the lack of any real sorting and only the single feeds really does lend to bringing all sorts of content and people in one place. Check out his full post here.

Here the next submissions by @knowledge-seeker, he incorporated alot of great elements and depth in his design, everything from the rope and anchors to the waves and marine animals has a deeper meaning. Please head over to his post here to check it out.

This fourth design is from @marlon241982 and he incorporated some cool textures into the background of the round, incorporated the world and whale elements as well. It's a fun idea that he also added the denomination of 1 Steem, as long as it doesn't lead to any confusion over having any value in crypto, since it's only a silver round. His post for further details is here.

Another great batch of submissions, I think that official brings us up to 7 now!

Please keep them coming, it's best to post a comment and link to your post in this post and use the tag #steemsilverround, also please spread the word or ask any other designers you know around here.

Crowd Funding

I just wanted to also remind everyone that we are trying to crowdfund as much of the premium as possible through Steem(it). We are committed to keeping the cost as low as we can for everyone and once again not taking any profits from this project.

@sevinwilson and I are donating the SBD rewards from any posts related to the coin to @steemsilverround. If any one else wants to post about the round, contests, or updates and donate the SBD to @steemsilverround we would really appreciate it!

There is currently 96 STEEM donated and 114.873SBD, this will go along way to helping keep the price down for everyone so please consider a little contribution. Special thanks to @raybrockman who's contributed over half that himself through a raffle he held giving away an 10oz Silver Coin from his personal collection.

Thanks again for all the amazing submissions, and please no sales or preorder inquiries

Pretty cool designs so far.

Lots of talented peeps out there.. With as bad as I do with the goldmoney contests I think I will leave it to the pros you have above! Btw, I also like the map on back idea - goes back to bar talk - someone at the bar asks you ' hey, do you know where Poland is? And you pull out your steem round and show them - right about here, after that off course they ask you about the coin and you begin your membership duty of educating them about silver and steemit

Great entries so far. Resteemed and up voted

Howz this??

I love @edxserverus design! The best I have seen yet. Also, last round had the minnow/ dolphin and Steem design, thus the 2018 design could focus more on the reward aspect imho.

Lots to like here. I love the embedded qr code; but I'm not a fan of the wording.
Steemit rewards quality, not effort.
Clearly @edxserverus delivers both simultaneously, so I can appreciate his failure to draw the distinction; but it's a very important one. You can slave over a piece for weeks and watch it fizzle; or you can throw something off the cuff and hit the jackpot.

Very nice designs, the first one does have a masonic look to it, dont like the writing in the middle, make it look a bit busy but it is smart.

I do love the image of the continents, the second one would be loved by flat earthers, all together on one flat disc. we are also supposed to believe Africa is 14 times bigger than greenland! its all a conspiracy lol, moon? what moon, ive never seen a moon.

The 3rd one ticks all the boxes and a clever design, keeps all the sizes of fish theme from the fist coin, the steem logo cleverly kept central and the ship would look cool.

Im loving the 4th design and on first glance my favorite and would probably look stunning on a silver coin with the texture, if you held it close to the eyes and slowly moved it away id bet you could see the sailing ship from the 3rd coin hidden in the pattern! The second steem coin is going to be a must have whichever design.
