I received my coins today. I love the water feel to the back of the copper and antique silver coins. The front of the coins have amazing details. I didn't even notice the cute little butterflies on the front until I looked at them closely.
The aqua water colors on the back of the gold coin are gorgeous.
Thank you for the beautiful and wonderful craftsmanship coins.

I received my damselfly coins today. I purchased all three metals and I am very happy I did. The details on the coins are amazing and I thought it was beautiful how one side is blue and the other green. When I held the coins up to the light I could see through the pretty wings. Great job.

Great hockey game. Congratulations to Team Canada. Way to go Sid the Kid on the overtime goal.

I wasn't that excited about paying 12 for a coin but your turtle was so cute I decided to splurge. I have to say I am very happy I purchased your coin. To me the turtle is bigger than most coins and it has a lot of great details. I am very happy to have your turtle in my collection and it is absolutely adorable. Great job.

Have these coins shipped yet?

No, I thought there was a bid of $905. Must have been seeing things. PM sent to TMA.

Was a bid retracted? I thought it was over $900.

Wow, the Canadian women are tough. It is 16-0 with 10 min to play.

DoctorA, did you try the email address on their website? It appears that others have used the email address and followed the directions on their temporary website and have received codes within a day or so.

Absolutely stunning. Love the title as well.

Still waiting for my 1k. Someone promised it was forthcoming but that was 200+ caches ago.

What if you did a stained glass design of your animal in the middle of the wheel? The wheel seems kind of plain now.

I love the monkey. Placed an order for a couple.

Very cute coin. I would buy it just for the pin.
-
Does it cost a lot more to have the tracking number on the side of the coin?

Due to the devastating news to myself in November and to my family this month I have been pre-occupied. Hopefully in the new year I will have them produced.

Yes, I keep a box of activated coins in my car and put three or four in a cache to travel. It is fun to see where they are going. It is also interesting to see that my coins travel the most in other countries.

The USPS governs your mailbox and in fact there are certain requirements for mailboxes. If I place something in your mailbox and I did not place a stamp on it, it is a violation of Federal Law. If I have a gift for you and place it in your mailbox, hang it on your mailbox or place it on the back of your mailbox it is a violation of Federal Law. Now again, this is in the US so I am not sure about Canada. I come from a family of Postmasters and have heard several stories during dinnertime about this.
BTW, the first offense is $250 per item.
I seriously doubt a postmaster could pursue the cache I listed earlier... Given that they would have to treaspass well onto private property to get to it and pass up the designated post box. It is also not visable from the official box, so they couldn't even claim it could cause confusion for proper delivery....
Does the mailbox receive actual mail? I am guessing that if it is on private property and you have to trespass to get to it, it doesn't receive actual mail. I believe the USPS regulations would not apply if you aren't receiving mail in the mailbox.

You will note that the OP was not suggesting that he make his mailbox into a geocache. He was considering creating a separate compartment that will be a geocache.D041 Customer Mail Receptacles

We had a brick mailbox built. It has two compartments. The upper compartment is for our mail. The lower compartment is for our newspaper. If I were to place a geocache in that lower compartment, it would not be a violation of any mailbox-related law or regulation because it would not be located in the mailbox.
Yes, mailboxes can be built to hold newspapers which is not a violation of Federal Law, but if it is a separate compartment it is not considered a mailbox receptacle. I would agree that if it is a separate compartment it would not be a violation.

Breast Cancer Angel Geocoin- info and updates
in Trackables
Posted
Would anyone be interested in designing a breast cancer geocoin and having a group of people go in to make the coin? Perhaps there could be a special limited edition metal for the people who help fund the project. I would be willing to help fund the design as well as the production. I, however, have no artistic talent.
