I can see why you'd want to submit this shot. It has great impact (no pun intended), although from a technical aspect there is room for improvement.

I like the reflection. Very good detail in the coin showing its wear.

There's quite a lot of these in the challenge, but this is one of the better ones. I think the reflection has helped this one along a bit. I'm not sure about the lighting, it seems you have some direct front on light which has given the coin a very scratchy silvery look.

I often find when I'm doing a shot of something like this it often ends up better when I use ambient or low lighting and go for longer exposure.

oh yeah this one is great, i love everything about her pose and the comp! she's a real cutie, shame you missed to ask her out for dinner or something or you would have always had a nice model on your hand...;)
can you upload this with the original tones and grain for me please? i just find it a little too "clean" for a b&w film scan i guess...
