Well.....I'm told that if I did the 2d graphic in color it would not turn out that well because of the detail. I guess I'll wait and see how things go before I decide on 2d or 3d without the color. Photo inlay would work out nice like my panther paw coin but it's kind of expensive. I'm working on getting quotes as we speek and I'll see what others come up with

But I'd also be happy with a jaguar, another from the Western Hemisphere. I see Asia and Africa represented, so I think that a fourth cat coin should be from the Americas. I like this Idea also because I think an American Big Cat deserves to be in the set. Ok.....I dropped the "white tiger" and added the Jaguar and Mountain Lion. The graphic below shows the 4 coin set in 2d color rather than 3d cat graphic with no color as I shown previously. I think I like the idea of having the cats in color. I also added the signature pawprint on the rear of the coin. I submitted these graphics to a few places for price quotes and to make any needed changes if needed to make it better. I'm figuring on offering 2 sets of metals: 1st set would be Silver, Nickel, Copper, Gold 2nd set would be Antique Silver, Antique Nickel, Antique Copper, Antique Gold. Should I also have a limited Edition set that has all 4 cat coins in the same metal? Maybe 2-tone? What do you think of the changes so far? http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i290/prowler53/4coinset.jpg' alt='4coinset.jpg'>

Prowler53 Panther coin 150 in Black Nickel Only

Ok....I'm down to these 3 for sure African Lion - This one must stay. This covers Africa Bengal Tiger- This one must stay because I like them This covers Asia/India Puma/Mountain Lion/Cougar/Panther - We call them Mountain Lions here in Eastern USA but they are found mostly In western USA and are known as Puma. Not sure yet what name I should use on the coin? The fourth would be one of these: Leopard - Found mostly in africa, southwestern asia & china Jaguar - Found mostly in South America and very small areas of North America Cheetah - Found mostly in Africa In Utah we usually call them mountain lions.... I guess my vote would be Mountain Lion also since that's What we call them here.

Received a few trades today. DresselDragon and TMOCM Very very nice coins TYTYTY

well I guess I'll sit at the computer and do a few more graphics and post them. Then we can pick which ones look best together I like all of your ideas

so do you think I should get rid of the "white tiger" and add the Jaguar and Leopard? I believe the white tiger is just a white version of the Bengal which I plan on keeping. Or should I keep it as a 3 coin set and then add another coin or two somewhere down the road. I was originally planning on doing these coins one at a time but I figured most would like to have the whole set at once instead of taking a chance at missing one of the coins later. I'm open to opinions and the 3 coins shown are not set in stone yet.

First thought was the "Black Panther", since I love them, but then I remembered that is what is coming at ya on your personal coin. So.... I tried to think of something that would be outside of the norm that people think of when you say "Big Cat" How about a Serval? Those big ears are so cute! D-man Lol....honestly I never heard of them before so I clicked on the link. Kinda funny looking and they are listed on the big cat rescue page.
-
Would like to see one of my panther coin when you get them
-
Ahhh yes I forgot about the cheetah.
-
Should I add a 4th Big cat coin to the set? If so.......what would you like to see added? Mountain Lion Black Panther Jaguar Lynx Bobcat ????????????????????????
-
Cool coin........I would be in for a couple. Will there be a custom icon?
-
Good news.......I received the coins today and I managed to get them all shipped back out on the same day. The coins are really really nice and I'm very happy with how the coins turned out. However there was an error in the minting process. The coin mint did not put the sequential numbers on the coin. I figured most of you would not want to wait another 6 weeks to have the coin corrected for the sake of the numbering. I contacted rusty about this error and he sent me a copy of the die art that clearly shows the coins with the numbers. He is going to get in touch with the mint to see if there is anything that can be done. Check back here in a couple days and I'll let everyone know whats going on. Here is a copy of the die art that clearly shows the sequential numbering. .

Sorry....the coins were sold out
-
Everyone requesting coins will be contacted when pre-sale begins. The coins are going thru a few changes since the graphics were posted. It looks like I'll be doing 2 metal sets instead of 2-tone metal to keep cost down. Right now I'm planning on a set of Gold, Copper, Silver & a set of Antique Gold, Antique Copper, antique Nickel. But that could change again before I decide.
-
Not yet......The coins should be here tomorrow. The only pic I have was the sample posted in the pre-sale.
-
Are you thinking of Cointracking.com?
-
I'm just printing packing slips so I can have the envelopes ready when the coins arrive. I'm expecting them on monday (fingers crossed). I want to fill the envelopes with cat tracks and send them back out on the same day. Confirmed trades will be shipped along with buyers coins on the same day.
-
HOORAY! Have fun at the post office. Just confirmed Rusty did receive the coins yesterday and he sent them out to me yesterday via priority mail......I should have then in a few days. He also said the coins turned out really nice with the photo inlay I can't wait to see them!
-
Panther Coins should be in my hands on Monday 9/11 or 9/12. Will be shipping out the same day I receive them.
-
Update: Tracking number shows Rusty will receive the coins in today's mail and he said he will ship them out to me today via priority mail. I should have them in my hands in a few days I'm planning on shipping everyones coins out to them on the same day I receive them.
-
Again.......I'm sorry about the wait. I started the pre-sale on 7/21 and began taking orders on that day. The coins were ordered on 7/26 just 5 days later. I posted in the pre-sale that the coins would be 4-6 weeks from the date they were ordered till I received them. Tomorrow will be 6 weeks so the coin is running a little late. This is my first coin and I did not know what to expect as far as the minting process and delivery time except from what I was being told. I can assure you that when I receive the coins they will be shipped out to the buyers the next day. There's not much more I can do. Thanks again for everyones patience

I just received an E-mail from Rusty at personal geocoins. The coin mint shipped the coins out today and rusty should be getting them in a few days. The coins will then be shipped to me and sent out to everyone who ordered. Thanks to everyone for being patient and you will have your coin(s) shortly I was also told that future coins will be shipped to a new mint that is a little better quality and much faster getting them finished and shipped. Thanks again
