The month of February was one of the hardest times of my life...but the geocoins coming in was a comfort to me.

The Math Trade started it off, then I made a nice trade with TMA for lots of non-trackables as well as a few that are trackable:

Awesome coin month!!! You're pictures of coins are always amazing!

I love the personals that you obtain, as always thank you for sharing, especially since I usually get to hold them!! :) )

Lots of great pics lately--enjoyed seeing the Math Trade hauls, then came some mother lode shots from Geoquino, Ruud4d, JackHoe (OMG!!!) & Nikon-ing! Some sweet coinage arrived in my mailbox during February, too (the middle row coins are Math Trades, top left is my fabulous prize from Lomtomsilver's Super Bowl cointest) :D :

As I arrived home from class today, I noticed that the mailbox was propped open a bit. I hurried over and snatched out a bubble mailer from chickahominey. Funny... Becuase I hadn't ordered or traded anything as of late. I scurried inward the house and before I could plop down on the couch I had the sucker opened. Out popped a couple of styrofoam peanuts and "Kate returns with vengeance" mystery coin. I don't know what to say... Other than thank you so much! I don't know why I was chosen... But I hope that I am worthy. My wife and I love scary stories/movies. Maybe I will visit kate's homeland one day :) thank you so much chickahominey!

Did the avroair v1 also come in Antique Silver, or is that a different version? ThHanks.

Got my 1 of 75 Czech stones in the mail finally! Didn't realize that mail coming from the Czech Republic was slowing down due to the surge of e-commerce from the US... Either way, this coin is amazing! Thick too - made from what seems to be granite. This is NEVER being traded, considering I'm half Czech :P

I made some last year too, Each coin goes into one of those holders that looks like a phote slide, then the 1 and 2 cent coins go into oposing halves of a vinal coin flip. so the "Trade item" has both coins.
