SlytherinAlex Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Orders are now being taken for the new EU geocoin. the coins are already in production and will be available for delivery in the UK & Europe in the last week in October. The coins are not only trackable on geocaching.com but they are also sequentially numbered. So if you want a coin with a low number, then the earlier you order your coins the better. You will also get a nice EU icon on your stats page. The website has been launched at 9am as most of the American geocachers should be safely tucked up in bed and that will let European cachers have first go at the coins. Numbers are limited and they are expected to sell out before delivery date. Details can be found here: EU geocoin information website. -

+HazelS Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Does UK coin give one a new icon as well? No - as it won't be trackable on GC.Com

+G&C Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 ordered one - looking forward to the new icon on our stats!! G&C
Andys101 & Redfrock Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Shame we did'nt get the uk coin trackable as well. how come it isn't?
+The Hokesters Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I know you perhaps haven't seen this already but it has been discussed ad nauseum. We felt the cost would be too high and communications with GC.com were not as smooth as Alex seemed to find them. I really do wish that the people who know this full and well would stop bringing it up at every opportunity. Please - we are doing this voluntary and made an executive decision have some respect. At the end of the day it hasn't deterred 1200 + being pre-ordered which has delayed delivery because I don't have that much ready cash to order the coins! Now please can we leave this on-topic for the EU coin.
+badger Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 I agree that this should be kept to discussing the EU coin, there is another thread on the UK coin which explains it all already. Matt
SlytherinAlex Posted September 8, 2005 Author Posted September 8, 2005 Please people.... this isn't about UK v EU. The UK coin is a great product in its own right and a project that I wholeheartedly support. Buy both coins - they will make a great set. Any more off-topic comments and I will lock the thread. -
+badger Posted September 8, 2005 Posted September 8, 2005 Well said Alex, my orders for both have already been placed... Matt
Andys101 & Redfrock Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 oops sorry. anyway am more than chuffed to be able to own some of each Claire
SlytherinAlex Posted September 9, 2005 Author Posted September 9, 2005 Does anyone know Anthony Perry of Ellesmere Port?? If so, could you email me off-list please? Alex.

+Skippy and Pingu Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Does anyone know Anthony Perry of Ellesmere Port?? If so, could you email me off-list please? Alex. Email being sent by us to you.
+Stuey Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Just a word of warning to anyone who uses the SpamPal spam filter program. It classed the PayPal email from Alex as Spam (which it obviously isn't), so check your Spam folder.
+Haggis Hunter Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Paid, just have to wait for the postie
+The Klever Boys Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 All paid for. Looking forward to having a close up look at one!
+Naefearjustbeer Posted September 9, 2005 Posted September 9, 2005 Just a word of warning to anyone who uses the SpamPal spam filter program. It classed the PayPal email from Alex as Spam (which it obviously isn't), so check your Spam folder. Just log into your paypal account and the invoice will be waiting for you, I got the email but I never click on links embedded in emails as you cannot be too careful these days. I get spoof paypal emails quite regular these days. As a fisherman I don't want to get caught out by a phisher
