We are still looking at a late November ship date. I have been in touch with the coin company, and they are still on track. There was a small delay with the tracking numbers which put us back just a little bit. Yes, to the custom icon:

The order has been placed with the coin manufacturer, and production is proceeding full-steam ahead. We do not have a hard-and-fast date for when the coins will be done, but we expect to ship them out sometime mid-to-late November. -Brian Treasurer - Wisconsin Geocaching Association

A final reminder... October 21st is the last day we will be accepting orders. Then, "off to the mint".

We have resolved our technical difficulties, and are now accepting orders (until October 21st). Offical Announcement

We are now accepting orders for Wisconsin's first offical geocoin. Sorry, no international orders... U.S.A. only. Front of coin: Back of coin: NOTE: The coin will not be colored. The colors in these images are simply to highlight the various levels (depths) of the designs on the coins. Also, the die art is only showing the outlines of the whitetail deer image; the image on the coins will be 3-D and very detailed. Coins will be 1.5" diameter brass coins with a polished gold finish and will be shipped with a protective plastic case. They will be trackable at geocaching.com. Visit the WGA Store to order your coins (www.wi-geocaching.com/oscommerce) Note that the coins have not been minted yet. We are having people prepay for the coins first, then ordering them when we know how many are needed. After coin ordering is closed, the WGA will obtain the geocaching tracking numbers and order the coins. It is expected that the coins will be shipped in mid to late November. You will receive email notification when the coins are shipped and will be informed if any delays occur in the manufacturing or shipping process. Special thanks to Paul Thomas (pcfrog) for spearheading the effort to get a Wisconsin geocoin made and for creating the coin design. Without all of his hard work and pushing we never would have been selling coins this year.

We were supposed to have ordering of the Wisconsin Geocoin up and running this morning, but are experiencing some minor technical difficulties. Hope to have them resolved very soon. -Tie Treasurer – Wisconsin Geocaching Association
