+Damenace Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Do you wake up early to try and get a limited edition coin? Do you sit in front of your computer hitting F5 to refresh your screen waiting for a new coin to go on sale? Have you minted your own coin in hopes of being able to trade for other personal coins? Do you spend more on coins per month than groceries? Do you have three of the four seasonal MIGO coins and will do anything to complete the set? Have you woke up in the morning to find out that a coin has gone on sale and sold out all before you woke up? Well I have got news for you, you are addicted to collecting Geocoins. And I have just the answer to your addiction. The all new GAA coin, yes you guessed it another coin to fuel your addiction. This concept is long overdue. Here is the scoop: 1) Orders to be placed and paid for through TheCachingPlace.com 2) 1000 Bronze no LE 3) 1.5” or 1.75” 4) Non Trackable 5) Non Numbered 6) Non Epoxied 7) Full color front 8) 3-D rear 9) $3.50 + actual shipping 10) $2.00 handling per no matter the size of the order ***example*** 1 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $5.50 + actual shipping 2 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $9.00/2 =$4.50 pc + shipping 3 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $12.50/3 = $4.17 pc + shipping 4 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $16.00/4 = $4 pc + shipping 5 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $19.50/5 = $3.90 + shipping 6 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $23.00/6 = $3.83 + shipping 7 @ $3.50 + $2 handling = $26.50/7 = $3.79 + shipping The purpose behind the example was to not alarm you with the addition of a $2.00 handling charge. The “PC” is the per coin price if bought in quantities. Orders are not being taken via this thread, there will be actual ordering instructions to follow. There is a few tweaks to the artwork, and the final design will be posted prior to the sale of the coin. STAY TUNED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote

+AtlantaGal Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Still think GAA should be spelled out along the rim. But since the shipping is so high, I guess I'll have to order 2 regardless. Quote
YemonYime Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 As a part of my therapy, I'll have to say no. But of course, I'll order some when the counselors aren't looking! Quote
+M&M Hunter Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Ok, Ok, I'm addicted! I'll have to have a couple of these! Quote

+Bigdawg! Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 Second version looks better, without the house in the background it makes it stand out more. I'm not going to buy it! I'm not going to buy it! I'm not going to buy it! I'm not going to buy it! O.k. I'll buy it but just 2! Quote

+FlyinV Posted November 1, 2005 Posted November 1, 2005 By the way, what are the 12 steps in the 12 step program. I'm stuck at the computer and having taken a step yet! 1. Admission – We admitted we were powerless over GeoCoins — that our lives had become unmanageable. 2. Came to believe that a Power greater than ourselves could restore us to sanity. 3. Made a decision to turn our will and our lives over to the care of Jeremy as we understood Him. 4. Made a searching and fearless moral inventory of ourselves. 5. Admitted to Jeremy, to ourselves, and to another human being the exact nature of our wrongs. 6. Were entirely ready to have Jeremy remove all these defects of character. 7. Humbly asked Him to remove our shortcomings. 8. Made a list of all persons we had harmed, and became willing to make amends to them all. 9. Made direct amends to such people wherever possible, except when to do so would injure them or others. 10. Continued to take personal inventory and when we were wrong promptly admitted it. 11. Sought through prayer and meditation to improve our conscious contact with Jeremy, as we understood Him, praying only for knowledge of His will for us and the power to carry that out. 12. Having had a spiritual awakening as the result of these steps, we tried to carry this message to others with the same problem, and to practice these principles in all our affairs. Quote

+Prairiepartners Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 OK I can't hold back any longer!!!! Gotta have 2 of these, maybe more...LOL Quote
+Damenace Posted November 2, 2005 Author Posted November 2, 2005 Alright his another update and the final art work. The colors had to be tamed way down. The coin will be a combination of 3D and 2D on both sides, on the front the post on the left and the arrows will be 3D with recessed lettering, back side will be 3D wagon and 2D person colored. In the original post above the size had not been determined, it will be 1.75". Due to the increase of coin size and the combination of 3D and 2D on both sides the coin has increased by $0.50. So each coin will be $4.00. Website is being designed as we speak, wouldn't it be funny to make you order at the same time as the Vampires and Mummies coin? No I wouldn't do that, it will go on sale before that. Stay Tuned!!! Quote
+M&M Hunter Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 I think they look great!! I'm definately going to have to have some. Thanks for doing such a great job on this project Those of us who are truly addicted (even though we won't always admit it) appreciate it. Quote
+DancesWithMoose Posted November 2, 2005 Posted November 2, 2005 The only way to prove that you are not adicted is to not buy this coin!!!! If that is what it takes, then I will admit it - I AM addicted. Quote
