Cool coin. Are you selling them yourself or will they also be available through a vendor?
-
only 12 more Summer Solstice Masks! But they certainly didn't sell out quick like the others have!
We also didn't allow distributors or individuals to buy more than 10 this go around. So more people could get them. As soon as they sell out a

Hmm.. slightly newbie question.. do events have to be outdoors? Since we're in an area where it will likely be under snow on 11-11-11 can event caches and what not be placed indoors if I were to find a venue that we could use? With some outdoors for die hard cachers in the area, and some indoors for folks who are not winter cachers but would enjoy an event in november.. Just the start of an idea...
The event format, location, venue is totally up to you. See post #105 for a FAQ.
Only thing I'm worried about is that it's really close to the 11-11-11 suncatcher with respect to the large poppy side.Not much I can do about a poppy, I took a quick look at the sun catcher and the middle is similar, I may tweak it a bit. But the rest of the coin is totally different.

I like this version. Can the hands be set at 11O'clock?
Eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month..signing of WWI treaty
Thanks for reconsidering.
I tried both hands at 11 and it looks strange to the eye. Kinda lopsided If it were Midnight then people are used to seeing that. 11th minute, 11th hour, 11th day...
I can post one to show what I mean. After I get more feedback. The minute and hour hands are currently backwards.

Ok, so I was playing around with the clock idea, as well as smaller poppies, and here is a preliminary design I came up with, the 'color-by-number' is easier than it looks on here. I also shaded a section on the clock face where the adventurous types could alternate enamels.
The Wording: "11-11-11 Multievent" would go around the outside of the clock with other verbiage. It crashed my new illustrator twice when I tried to put it in. And I forgot to add 11 to the middle of the poppy on the front.
Thoughts?

GCF EU from Sepp & Berta. I believe it's pink and white.
Do you know if these will be available for purchase online or only at the event?
Not sure what the deal is, Claudia at Sepp and Berta will be able to tell you.
No other versions have been designed yet. But the autumn equinox is Sept 21st... just kidding!
-
Thanks for the update, Mark. I feel much better now
Any idea, when those two new versions will be showing up?
The orders were filled and mailed yesterday. The leftovers will go onto Geoswag when the numbers have been counted and a safety stock is set back.
-
Ok, to clear up the coinfusion. The royal mercy was reminted. Both the original run and 2nd run were in antique gold. The purple makes them look copper under bad light or at quick glance. There was no order put in for antique silver and purple.
So currently there are 5 versions:
Crimson Dawn: red AS
Twilight Revenge: blue AS
Royal Mercy: purple AG
Nights Watch: black AS (not available yet)
King's Own: red and black AS (not available yet)
Now back to your regularly scheduled programming...

Your best bet is to try posting in this thread: trade thread
-
any word on the sale time? and what site, geoswag?
They were just put up 10 minutes ago.
-
Avroair, any idea when these will go on sale? Looking forward to seeing them.
Mid August. Sorry for such a long wait. I felt there were too many email blasts and too many coins coming out on top of one another, so better to delay a bit.
-
I got a diving helmet.
Awesome!! A Ssaffier? What finish?
Nope. A new one.
-
Anyone know where I can get the matching pin? I got one as a gift and it was promptly 'secured' by my 3 year old. Gotta find a second now!
-
I received an email from geoswag and as usual, excellent service by a great company.
Cool. I am having an event at Panda Express, will have Pandamonium coins there!
-
All the lists look good so far, except for one minor tweak on a couple of people. Please remember to put your name in parenthesis before each coin
I don't ever remember doing that before. So of course I didn't.
I got yelled at for not doing that last time! Making my list today or tomorrow. Fingers crossed!
-
These look cool, any new pictures yet?
-
I sent a package northward, guess it's going to sit at a border warehouse for a while.
-
Yo, long time no talk Trail Hound. I would sell your coins on ebay in a batch since I know most of the coins you will be listing. Drop me a line if you need help.
-
All orders that came in before 10p (pacific) last night went out in today's mail.
Thanks everyone!
What! They are sold already?
We have out of country visitors from Germany so was entertaining. -
avroair, what is this Summer Solstice you mentioned? And when is it expected??
The Solstice is on Tuesday FYI. Will get a handle on the time of the sale tomorrow.
-
Will anyone have a personal coin for the event? Was contemplating debuting a new Avroair Aviator earlier than normal.
-
Canada went up $.49
For me this was a big one. And now they aren't even delivering to Canada while on strike.
-
Any plans for any more versions (orange or pink?) or are the original colors coming back?

Hello There,

He would have liked these very much.
Those look really cool!
will appear with someone missing one.

The red poppy is a symbol used in the commonwealth so a NZ, UK or Canadian event would probably use them, but here in the US when I ask people most people would say Orange for the California poppy, white for peace or pink for breast cancer etc. I am still tweaking the design, but I think there are a number of color combos that can go around the poppy.
