Adobe Dead Drop Challenge Coin

August 11th 2009 Posted to Contests

I have just received a box of collectible dead drop challenge coins. In future dead drops, these coins will be placed at the final clue. So in addition to the great prizes, winners will also own a unique piece of Adobe memorabilia. If a team wins I will distribute one to each team member. These are 2″ coins with an epoxy dome to help protect it from the elements. I have to say that the video below doesn’t do the coin justice. I’m proud to say I designed these myself in Illustrator :) .

If you previously won a dead drop, email me at brimelow [at] adobe so I can get one out to you.

    Does it protect against owls?

    This is so cool! Can’t wait to see these on eBay… for charity, hopefully!

    Do you remember the ‘Flash’ cards Macromedia gave out a long time ago? Would love to get a copy of those some day.

    Any chance of a Seattle drop? No owls, but plenty of other craziness to be had here.

    What about those of us who went out of their way to decipher certain clues and then shared the results with the team that would eventually win? :)
    In short, you may send me a coin Lee. Extra points go to those who meet Lee Brimelow in person in the middle of London, surely.
