This was painted using the watercolor tutorial in this week's Watercolor challenge here on SCS but I didn't put it in the keywords because I did this for the Dirty Dozen theme.
What to do with ATC Coins? You can trade them, use them in your scrapbook layouts, use them on cards, put them in cards you send friends, or use them as adornments on goody bags (that is what I will probably do with this one if I don't swap it). There is an ATC Swap here on SCS this would fit - the May Swap hosted by Denise (card crazy).

Oh, Nancy! I love how you used this week’s tutorial. That duck looks fantastic, and I’ve never come across coins before, so that’s new to me, and you do all things well, my friend!

The soft watercolor wash creates a peaceful setting for the duck, and the way you blended the grasses into the scene adds such natural movement while the dimensional sticker and phrase give the coin a polished finish that works beautifully with the round format.
