+brian b Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 (edited) So -- here are a list of coins that have yet to be shipped, but many may be wondering when. If you have info (reliable info, that is), feel free to post it. New York (3 week min from 10/25 -- mid November) Mt. McKinley? New Mexico? Wisconsin? San Fransisco? Screw Coin (mid November) Georgia? Delaware? Iowa? Pennsylvania (mid November) I think this just about covers all the gc.com unique icon coins. (Edited: to reflect dates as I receive them) Edited October 26, 2005 by brian b Quote Link to comment
+Cornerstone4 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I can vouch for the screw coin. We had a minor mis-spelled word in the die artwork. That should be corrected by this evening. They anticipate 3 weeks to get them made and in our hands, so that means mid-November before you get a screw. Quote Link to comment
YemonYime Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Pennsylvania is slated for mid-November as well. Quote Link to comment
57chevy Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Wow that's a long time, that better be a nice COIN. Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 Wow that's a long time, that better be a nice COIN. 3 weeks is the average production time. Quote Link to comment
SCP-173 Posted October 25, 2005 Share Posted October 25, 2005 I think this just about covers all the gc.com unique icon coins. Yes, who cares about the non trackable coins. No one is anxiously awaiting KTAG, for example. Quote Link to comment

If you have info (reliable info, that is), feel free to post it. New York? We received our sample coin yesterday. I haven't seen it yet myself, but from what I've heard, it looks great. Full production of the coins should start soon, and I plan to post an expected delivery date when I hear back from the mint. Quote Link to comment

I am But with the coins where people want a proof coin, it usually makes the order take a minimum of 6 weeks total (3 weeks aprox from date proof is approved) Quote Link to comment

+Team Maddie UK Posted November 3, 2005 Share Posted November 3, 2005 Iowa did a pre-order but did not do a pre-pay They said they would send out invoices about a week before coins were due. No idea of timing on that one though Quote Link to comment

Parrolet Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Does anyone know anything about the Alabama coins?? When are they going to ship? Ordered them back in Sept. Also the Texas Autumn 2005 that has already been going out. When will they be shipping the new orders again? Quote Link to comment
+Thrak Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Christmas Geocoin - 1st Week of December Gah! Cutting it close for placing as a FTF in a cache. Hope it isn't delayed. Looking forward to getting mine and I KNOW whoever is FTF on the cache I place will be happy to get theirs as well. Quote Link to comment

No idea of timing on that one though Yeah. I keep wondering whatever happened with that one. I ordered one for me and have a trade arranged for the second one I ordered. So far they have taken and confirmed the order but never invoiced me. I also ordered and paid for the 9key coin but haven't heard anything about it recently.

+Night_Hawk Posted November 4, 2005 Share Posted November 4, 2005 Does anyone know anything about the Alabama coins?? When are they going to ship? Ordered them back in Sept. They had some issues with the artwork that needed correcting. There's still no solid date but if I had to guess from what I've read I'd say early to mid December at the earliest.

+GA Cacher Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 (edited) GA Geocoins update>>> Today we received the sample coins from our coin run. I will be taking them to an event tomorrow so (sorry) the local cacher can see ( fondle) both coins. It is our understanding that we should have the coins Dec 1/2 and we will begin shipping straightaway. Please bear in mind that the 5 of us do not do this for a living and we will be having a packaging party to get them together. It might take a run or two to get them all to the post office. Trust us we want them out in your hands as soon as possible, bearing in mind our schedules. We thank you for your trust and support! GA Cacher, Team PEZ, Thorny1, Team Happyspider and TRAM.

+jamrasc Posted November 19, 2005 Share Posted November 19, 2005 Wow, with most of these shipping in December, we're all going to get lots of presents to ourselves! Quote Link to comment
+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 You missed the Red-handed trackable coin (although no custom icon). I have these in-hand and now need to package and ship them. I'll doa project post-mortem to detail where and why delays occured (tracking numbers and travel), but I can say this -- it is a LOT of work to do these projects in your spare time! 99.9% of folks are patient and understand -- there's always a couple that are anxious, unhappy that delays occur, etc. I attribute this to the Internet culture where the press of a button equals instant satisfaction Anyhow-- these should be shipped out in stages over the next two weeks and start arriving in mailboxes in a week to 5 weeks from now (depending on which stage yours are part of -- I figure I can mail out about 40 packages a week (that includes all the labelling, activation code transcribing, customs forms filling, cross-referencing, etc, etc. Quote Link to comment
+hydnsek Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 So, this list is only for gc.com trackable coins? For those who don't care about that distinction....I'm wondering about the Maine coins. Quote Link to comment
+WWC-World's Worst Cacher Posted November 27, 2005 Share Posted November 27, 2005 Don't know why I missed this thread before, but San Francisco is expected to go in the mail to purchasers the early the first week of December. Quote Link to comment
