The winning design for our 2018 Temptation of the Succubus 2oz fine silver round is here, the third design for this annual series! A BIG thank you to our friends andsupporters for helping us throughout the design phase and helping us to choose the winning design.

The plaster has arrived! We're one step closer to final product, now to make the epoxy mold and then dies! Stay tuned for more updates!

The Succubus has a metaphorical meaning for us, representing the struggles against any form of alluring temptation; so it is a must that she is represented this way. She needsto be seductive, beautiful, alluring and tempting however not sexually suggestive or pornographic. We would like to give the artists free artistic reign. We want her to appearmore seductive, more sexually appealing with less clothing while still being tasteful (no nudity, no sexually suggestive poses). We do like larger wings, and we would like to seea larger portrait of her face. As far as the other "typical" succubus features like horns, tail, finger nails etc...we give you free creativity. With regards to thebackground details, we wanted to try to incorporate some of her male victims, whether they appear as discarded corpses or otherwise captured men.
