Conquistador Games offers "The Best Damn Metal Gaming Coins Ever"

COLUMBUS, OH - August 30, 2013. Conquistador Games, which in 2012 produced popular metal doubloon gaming coins, is now offering a new series of modular gaming coins custom-designed for many themes.

"We make things that we like to play and use in our own games," said Dirk Knemeyer, Conquistador Games' Director of Creative Development. "We found ourselves using the doubloons for lots of games where they didn't fit the theme just because they were so high-quality. After our coins came out we watched other people sporadically offer coins for sale. Some were nice, some weren't, but they were all disjointed from each other. We knew that what we would want is a universal system. So, we made it."

"The Best Damn Medal Gaming Coins Ever" share a number of features:

- Five sizes for maximum flexibility: 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm and 35mm in diameter

- Each size has a unique finish to help differentiate them: bronze, metal, copper, silver, gold

- Various thematic sets to cover the full range of board game themes

- Non-denominational, to work with any game

- Realistic look and feel: they seem like "real coins", not toys

- All art is commissioned from a fine artist who hand-draws each coin

- Pricing considerably less than competitive products

Each full set comes with 51 coins for just $20. From the smallest size to the largest, that set includes quantities of: 20, 15, 10, 5 and 1. Questioned about the affordable price of these coins compared to others in the market Knemeyer explained:

"Conquistador Games is a board game company. Our business is making games. When we make accessories, like 'The Best Damn Metal Gaming Coins Ever', we're doing it for the joy of our customers and enhancement of their games, both those made by us and other companies. That's why we price them so aggressively."

"The Best Damn Metal Gaming Coins Ever!" were offered for sale on Kickstarter, where they quickly caught fire. Now, with 12 days left in the campaign, they have raised over $30,000 - more than six times their campaign goal. The campaign ends on Wednesday September 11.
