My wife loves the purple one. She'll have to settle for blue (unless you have a purple on hand somewhere)
-
Can't wait to get the purple one for my wife...She is getting mad at me for spending so much on coins except when she sees the purple ones, then she's excited.

I like V3, but i'm going to have to go with V2. Just like the looks of it better.

Just ordered the landsharkz version. Very cool.
-
Very nice. Just ordered and can't wait to see it in person.

Just booked a hotel. Looking forward to our 1ST of many.

I would look at the coin manufacturers websites listed on the Groundspeak and Geocaching.com first. They are by far and away the cheapest. Ebay would be the next option, they have a ton of geocoins, but they are going to be a lot more expensive. I have found geocoins that I really wanted on ebay and paid $25-$30 for and then found the exact same coin on a manufactures site for $10.
So find what you want first, do a little researching on the net and try to find the best deal. If you can't you can always go back to ebay and pay a ridiculous price if you really want it.
Like you, I am newer at collecting and have spent a small fortune so far. It is very addictive, expensive, and tons of fun. You will end up spending more than you think.
Good Luck

Love the design.....It looks like a Siamese cat so my suggestion is:
Geomese

Thanks for your answers. Now that I've checked back I see that the hyperlinks are there. I think I was confused as I hadn't seen them on the page where I had written my log entry for the coins. Definitely a silly newbie question - oops!
No such animal as a "silly newbie question"! A reasonable, intelligent question is never silly. By asking the question, you showed that you are not silly at all, but want to do the right thing. The silly newbies are the ones who never ask, and then do things incorrectly
Or the ones that decide to keep the coin as a souvenir.
-
Another great design. Sending my e-mail shortly.
-
Made a few changes to see how it might look on black and think I like it much more now.
Yeah, I definitely like the black better.
-
My wife finally gave me the OK. Hope I'm not to late.
-
Love them. Great design.
-
Very cool design. Great job on your first coin.

Do you think the problem could've been that the proxy was not activated before being placed into the cache? Thanks for all the help
Possible, but I didn't see any mention of it being placed in the cache.
One of the reasons why it's helpful to list what traveler you picked up or placed. (Just don't post the actual tracking number in the log)
Good advice! I'll definitely start doing that from now on. Like I said earlier, we are relatively new and have a lot to learn. Thanks

I found a cache the other day with a paper copy of a coin. The problem is that it was not listed in the cache, and when I tried to log it, it was not a valid tracking #. I couldn't make out about 3 of the tracking #'s because of fading and what I would guess is a little water damage. This is the first paper copy I have seen (being relatively new to geocaching), but I'm puzzled as to what I should do with it. Should I return it to the cache I found it in? Should I place it in another cache and hope someone has better luck with it, or should I just give up on it and throw it away. I would hate to do the last option, but this piece of paper has run it's course. It looks like the elements got the best of this little paper replica.
Is this paper copy thing new or has it been going on for awhile?
I would have to guess the last cacher couldn't log it either so they finally just dropped it off.
I am curious though, are you sure it's a proxy coin?
Would you mind emailing me the details? Perhaps I can back-track where it came from.
It looks as if it is a legit copy. I've e-mailed you all the info. Thanks

Beautiful coins....I might have to buy the other colors too.
-
I am looking to trade for a Tranquility in any finish.
-
Very nice design! Will be adding this one to the ever growing collection. My wife is going to kill me pretty soon and sell off all of my coins if I keep up this pace.
-
Can't wait for this. We couldn't make it last year, but we put enough aside to go this time around. Looking forward to meeting all the designers that are costing me all my paychecks.

Took awhile to choose but finally decided. Too many to choose from.
