Album Cover Challenge 99

Last minute entry! Not exactly the best I've done and I couldn't find a shot which really matched the idea I had in mind- but it's not exactly the worst either! LOL

Artist: The Walking Liberty Half Dollar. A 50 cent piece designed by Adolph A. Weinman and issued by the U. S. Mint between 1916 and 1947. The beautiful design depicts Lady Liberty striding towards the sun but difficulty in producing a clean pressing through the years caused U. S. Mint director Robert W. Woolery to replace it with the Franklin Half Dollar. Originally cast in silver, the coin was reissued briefly in 2016 in gold for its centennial.

Album title from a quote by occultist, founder of the fraternal magical society Illuminates of Thanateros, and practitioner of chaos magic which rejects absolute truth Peter J. Carroll. "Our own civilization has moved into an epoch of permanent crisis and upheaval, and we are beset with a plague of wizards. They serve an historic purpose, for whenever a society undergoes radical change, alternative spiritualities proliferate, and from these a culture will select a new world view".
Thank you for taking part at short notice
