+The Moops Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I am having a tribute coin minted for my wife (Mrs. Moops) who is a heart transplant recipient. After a huge medical battle she is now able to get out caching on a limited basis. She doesn't read the forums and she has no idea I'm doing this. If anyone could help, it would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment
Son of Cyclops Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I wish I could help, but can not. I am glad your wife is feeling better and I would like one or two coins when it happens. Quote Link to comment
+Chaos A.D./aka Arlsdaddy Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I think most coin mints can do this with no minimum for personal coins. They run $1.50 per coin. Groundspeak must approve the coin first. Quote Link to comment
+pdxmarathonman Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I think most coin mints can do this with no minimum for personal coins. They run $1.50 per coin. Groundspeak must approve the coin first. The only one I am aware of that is a one-stop shopping for gc.com trackable coins is http://www.coinsandpins.com They do great work. They'll help with the design, get it approved by gc.com and sell you exactly how many tracking numbers you need. Good luck on the project and congratulations to your wife on her gift(s)!

+Team Maddie UK Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 I think the tribute to your wife is very moving, and to people waiting on all transplant lists everywhere. One of the reasons I took up caching was heart problems, hoping the exercise would help. And although I do not need a transplant at this time, I can fully understand the anguish that goes with it. I think it is a marvelous idea and if you get them made I would definitely be interested in 4. One to keep, one to trade, one to leave in caches and one to make into a necklace to remind myself where it can leas if I do not get out caching more often. Good luck with your endeavours and keep us posted. Lynn Quote Link to comment
+9Key Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Nice tribute, and I concur with PDX - CoinsAndPins.com is a great place to go. Quote Link to comment
+lpyankeefan Posted November 10, 2005 Share Posted November 10, 2005 Good luck with the coin. Glad to hear your wife is doing better. If you decide to sell any of these would you consider placing our name on a list for 3 of the trackable coins. Thanks, Larry (lpyankeefan) Quote Link to comment
+The Moops Posted November 12, 2005 Author Share Posted November 12, 2005 (edited) One more try to buy some PC tracking #'s. If I can't get any by Monday 11/14, I am going to order the coins numbered 001-100. To those of you who mentioned Coins and Pins, thanks but I was already having art work done with another company.
