    Anyone have errors while logging a coin?

    in Trackables

    Posted

    I have the following coin and every time I try to log it or look for it I get an error on the gc.com page.

     

    http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...55-d8e11b5695ae

     

    I have tried multiple combinations for the tracking code (thinking I may not have read it correctly, ie is that an 8 or a B?) via the trackable items menu link or the actual log page for the coin to no avail.

     

    What do you do in an instance like this?

    MN MNGCA 2008 Coins are here

    Um,yah. It is weird. Especially since it says these are the 2007's. All the info I read about them said there were 50 minted. Are the 2008 coins different or a remint with a different year on it. I'm coinfused.

     

    There are several versions of this coin.

     

    Here are the details

     

    The 2007 MnGCA Geocoin

     

    4 color imitation hard enamel front

    2 color imitation hard enamel back with custom printing

    1.75” Diameter

    4 mm thick (nice thick coin!!)

    Trackable on Geocaching.com with custom icon and name

     

    Metal Types

     

    5 Extremely Limited Edition Copper Coins

    -------------------------------

    These 5 coins will only be available on future MnGCA created E-Bay auctions.

    Have not been sold yet

     

    50 Limited Edition Gold Sets

    -------------------------------

    First Minting

    50 Sets (1 Antique Gold Coin and 1 Shiny Gold Coin)

    SOLD OUT

    These coins will not be re-minted.

    I should have added that the 2007 coins will not be reminted after these last ones are sold out.

    When these are gone that is it for the 2007 coin.

     

    Of course we may have a 2008 version in a few months. ;)

    Thanks for that. Brilliant idea. Going by the photo it looks like it worked really well... and we all know how much better again the coins look in person over a photo! :)

     

    Yes these are beautiful coins.

    Both in look and feel.

    You won't be disappointed.

    Basically we used a sticker on the back and covered it with epoxy.

     

    The northern lights are actually printed right on the top of black hard enamel.

    The outlines of the trees are actually metal.

     

    This made a great effect that I haven't seen on any other coins.

     

    It was a tall order for Rusty to fill but he did it!!!

    I was too late to reap the benefits of The Geocoin Fairy’s trip to Minnesota first hand, but I managed to talk a local finder into a trade and I ended up getting one anyway!!!

     

    I am not sure if it’s cool or not but I’ll take it!!!!

     

    This coin has seen its last trade!!!!

    This one will go on the wall next to the GSA and Easter Bunny Coins!!!

    Thanks GCF!!!
