    Mission Complete. Thank you Secret Santa for all the goodies. I love the coins and the awesome geo-bag i received. The chocolate is meeting it demise as I type this. LOL

  2. It has been a crazy week for me, but I finally have an icon into Aaron so it should be up soon. For those of you who asked about the flips, this is the response I received from them.

     

    "I am sorry, I forgot to answer your question about the flips: This coin is 2.5” wide and the biggest coin flip made is for 2” coins."

    ...

    He's blowing you off on the subject. Other coin makers have provided 2.5" flips and even 2.75" flips with their larger coins. For someone whose manufacturing is fully financed by his customers he's showing very weak attention to customer service, IMHO. Sorry for venting.

     

    I am aware that larger coin sleeves are available. The question was asked on the forum and I shared his response to that question. I have always been very happy with my purchases from and minting experiences with CAP. I did not find the lack of a coin flip to be a problem, as I throw them away anyways but I understand some like to store their coins in them. For anyone who would like to share their concern about these coins not being in a plastic sleeve feel free to email coins and pins directly. I am sure they will be happy to resolve the problem.

    I have a couple of other projects going on at the moment, and the holidays are upon us, but I have already started sketching and brainstorming for my 2010 coin. :) I am also playing with the idea of making a series of fantasy butterflies, seeing how well this design was received.

  4. This cointest is open to everyone. The winner will be the first person to guess the correct answer and they can pick which version of my Fantasy butterfly they would like. One post per person/per hour. I will give clues to the answer as time passes if there are no correct answers, but for fun to start off your only clue is:

     

    Clue #1 - There is a hidden, personal message in the design, what is it?

     

    I am including a picture to help those of you who do not have a coin in hand to look at. :)

    fixed picture problem :)

  5. Awhile back I traded to get a Prowler53 Paw geocoin. When I received it, it was already activated by a cacher across the country. After a few confusing emails we discovered we both had the same coin with the same tracking number. I was a bit bummed as it took me forever to find one and there is no way to get a replacement. In the end having a duplicate is better then non at all. I can still show it off in my coin binder, I just don't let anyone "discover" it.

  6. And you have now guessed both animals right.

    kangaroo and parrot are the animals, suits HunnyBunny since she is always moving and talking.

     

    Winners are going to be

     

    GATOULIS for first correct post

    anne.and.eli for correct post and guessing the right bird , I had the lovebird in mind when making the coins

    UFgatorgirl and FScout for guessing the kangaroo first

     

    I have no date when the coin is ready but please give me an email with your adresses so I can send it to you when it is time.

     

    Thanks.
