You'd better check if there is a copyright on the image before going into production.

I was using the Google Earth picture because it was easiest to get. I'm sure someone can find a open source picture with clouds (more realistic). There could be a copyright problem. :rolleyes:

I like the CITO theme or will a CITO coin be next?

I have thought about this one. I was thinking of making it only available at CITO events at one per cacher. Then as an added bonus having it engraved with the cacher's name to make it unique and hard to trade. This would make it hard to get and get people out to do CITO. Something like 'This Coin is Presented to ________ ' or anything along those lines.

I was thinking about making an APE cache coin. Everyone who finds an APE cache can buy one, but only one! Just think, it could say "I go APE over geocoins". Then after that I plan to mint a coin commemorating the first ever archived letterbox hybrid. Maybe if you're lucky the French Speaking forum coin will follow. You'll need to speak French to buy that one.

Oh yeah, how could I forget the one shaped like a film canister! :)

Now I have a reason to go to Maryland this fall and get the APE cache

I love this. Someone posts an idea for a coin, and everyone starts ordering them aimlessly.

 

This coin has not even been designed yet.

 

I'll bet if I started a thread called "coin" I'd get orders. :huh: Don't put your cart before your donkey.

Obviously you never saw the "Screw geocoins" thread. The guy was complaining about all the geocoin talk on the travelbug thread (before the split of topics). Then the orders started. Then I made a fake coin. And got orders.

If you search, you will find it. :rolleyes:

Three for us.

 

Crazy, no coin, nobody to make it and we are ready to buy. Sounds like the stock market around here a couple of years ago.

 

But I'll bite for two.

Don't forget the "Screw Geocoins"

Great Steve!

Do we need to vote?

Where On The Earth Is That Geocache?

or

Where In The World Is That Geocache?

 

What happened to the "Third Rock from the Sun" idea?

 

The shuttle side is perfect.

Sorry, and I don't want anyone to take this personally, but I have to vote against the "Third Rock...". Just makes me think too much of the sitcom instead of geocaching and seems a bit too cliche.

 

I like the shuttle but doesn't it seem like it's just kinda jammed in there? Perhaps a bit smaller as pdx suggested.

Maybe you could make it a series and do other planets as well!

 

How many caches are there on the other planets? :P

 

I like the "Where on earth..." design.

I agree that the space shuttle seems a little out of place.
