+DJ.J.ROCK Posted May 11, 2009 Share Posted May 11, 2009 I was lucky enough to purchase my #1 most wanted geocoin last week. It is a coin I never thought I would be able to get, but today... it was in my mailbox. This is probably the most excited Ive been about getting a coin. i know youve wanted that coin for along time,, congrats!!!! Quote Link to comment

This is probably the most excited Ive been about getting a coin. i know youve wanted that coin for along time,, congrats!!!! Thanks... Yes I have been after it for a while. I kind of got it in a strange way, a month ago someone had posted a ton of cons for sale with a "silent offer" method. Well after a month has gone bye, a got an email last week saying that if I wanted the coin I could buy it for my original offer. I was shocked to get that email. Now the road gets even tougher though... To complete the 3 coin set & see if I can get the LE Gold & the XLE Copper.. Quote Link to comment

I'm always impressed with all the LE's and AE's you list. I dont know what most people do, but since I dont know a ton of coins... when I find a coin I like, I go to geocoincollection or cointracking and do a search on the coin. Gives me an idea of what versions & metals are out there. As for the AE coins I have, well I got those directly from the artist.. Avroair. Im a big fan of most of his coin designs...

+Laval K-9 Posted May 12, 2009 Share Posted May 12, 2009 I received a trade today in an ordinary white envelope. It was so light that I knew something was wrong. As I took a second look at the envelope I noticed that it has been neatly cut on the edge and as you can figure out, there was nothing in the envelope Use bubble mailers, it's much safer Quote Link to comment

Some are purchases and some are trades with Sunsetmeadowlark and with Surteb. Thanks for the awesome coins! The Earth Turtles are so much bigger than I expected. They really are too nice to be geocoins. Quote Link to comment

+Degai Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 I received a beautiful Spring Fling coin from Shop99er on Saturday. What a wonderful and unexpected surprise! I had no idea there was a Spring Fling coin, let alone that I would be receiving one. I don't know why I am always amazed by the kindness and generosity of our geocoin community. Our geocoin community is simply the best! Quote Link to comment

I use plain white envelopes but tape the dickens out of it - after I tape the coin inside. As far as I know, The ones I've sent a coin or two to, has gotten them.

Purchases of 3 Wildflowers coins, one to keep, one to cache, and one to mission! Purchase of a Look Twice coin, which has already been put in the wild for the Todie's Wild Ride thread.

+drneal Posted May 17, 2009 Share Posted May 17, 2009 I was very fortunate, and pleased to end up with a lot of trades, some raffle coins, and 4 purchases at the ASP Geobash yesterday, but since this is a "What's In Your Mailbox Today" posting, I made sure to take all the coins out to my mailbox, leave them in there for 5 minutes, bring them back in, and there you go, they were in my mailbox today! My favorite is the wooden nickel, made by Princess Trekker...I had given her one of my sig items earlier yesterday, and she made me her own sig item at a class taught at the geobash...sorry, it's not for sale or trade...you made my day Princess!

My Daughter, Queenie-Boo-Bay, just drug me upstairs, literally yelling “You have to see this coin!!” I have not seen her so adamant about a Geocoin since the Highland GeoFairy. Can you let me know where I might try to trade or purchase one of these? Thank you in advance. P.S. If the Princess Trekker wooden nickel is the 2nd from the left on the bottom, I can see why it is your favorite. Not to mention the value of that nickel that is a 1 of 1, and that kind of Heart deserves to be treasured. Quote Link to comment
