Christmas Geocoins Have Arrived!

[+Kilted Cacher 0]

The coins showed up today and they look great.

 

I will package them up this weekend and get them to the post office by Monday. Thanks to everyone for the long wait. The second coin in this series is already underway and the final draft will be done soon.

 

You can get the activation codes from www.geocoinclub.com once they enter the codes in the system, should take just a few days.

Sweet, we're having our X-mas party next weekend, this would make a great gift for a cacher. Come on postal service. WooHoo.

I should have bought more of these. I have so many cachers in the family that would love this as a Christmas gift. Anyone have extras to Trade for a Serial Finder coin?

FRAGO 1,

 

It seems after my QAQC check, only 368 coins arrived today in one box. I would have to assume that the other 132 coins will arrive tomorrow or Monday in a separate box. This may delay a few people in getting there coins. Also, out of the 368 I received only 1 was faulty, it was double stamped with two tracking numbers, one over the other. Shouldn't be a problem for anyone else, as I only took orders for 490 coins. This way I would have a few left over to cover any problems that may come up.

After the problems are covered if you have any left I would love to purchase one from you.

So would I!!

[+Shop99er 14]

Woo-Hoo!!

 

PLEASE tell me mine was one of the 368....

[+501_Gang 0]

I'll buy one of the extras or the miss print even!

[+mohr11 0]

If there is still one left I would love to purchase one from you.

[+Kilted Cacher 0]

All USA orders of 6 coins or less have been packaged up and are ready for delivery. All I have left is the international and bulk coin orders of 7 or more coins.

 

I am keeping all leftover coins for future trades.

Did anyone else see the Christmas Coin on eBay? 100% of proceeds go to benefit the Toys for Tots Foundation. Hmmm, I wonder who could have put that up?

Will the people that bought the Christmas coins get first crack at the other seasons coming up?

An email will be sent out to all those that ordered the first coin with info on the next coin.

[+Kilted Cacher 0]

All USA orders of 6 coins or less have been dropped at the post office and should be at your doors soon. The other bulk and international orders will go out later this week. I called the coin company and they said they sent out two boxes, so I should be gettng the rest of the coins today or tomorrow.

w00t! Now I have to finally decide where to place this .50 cal ammo can stuffed FULL of loot. I've been waiting on my 2 Christmas coins to place it since one of them will be a FTF prize for some lucky cacher.

I dont recall such an email. Could I get it sent again please?

[+Kilted Cacher 0]

No email has been sent yet. The artwork is being finalized. Look for it later this week.

I got my 3 outstandingly beautiful Christmas coins today! Thanks for making these! Do we get a tree icon?

Eventually. It's hard to come up with a unique icon to represent all holidays, so I think I will just go with the tree like it looks on the coin. In an earlier thread I had asked for any help or input in creating this icon, but got no response, so it looks like it's just going to be the tree with the star.

I guess I missed the request for input. I think the tree with the star would be great! Would it be possible to also have the little ammo can at the base of the tree?

[+Bambi&Thumper 0]

What about a parcel? People give gifts for many holidays, not just Christmas, so a blue parcel with a yellow bow might do?

 

Bambi.

 

PS My computer went *fut* so I don't have my usual software to draw something just now, give me a week or so and I might be able to put something together...

[+AuntieNae 0]

Did the larger orders ship yet? I have 10 coming so figure I am in the second shipment. Thanks, just anxious since some of these are gifts.

The rest of the orders were shipped out today after the I received my other box of coins in the mail today (Whew!). For those in Europe, your coins may take a little while to get there. The Post Office said anywhere between 3-5 weeks. Hopefully you get them before Christmas.

 

The artwork for the next coin is done and I will email the link to the store site later this weekend or Monday to everyone who ordered the Christmas Coin.

I received my Christmas coins the other day. I must say they are absolutely beautiful! I am so very glad I ordered them!

 

The picture just does not do them justice.

 

I am so proud to have added this coin to my collection.

 

GREAT JOB!

Awesome coin! I am looking forward to giving a few as presents. Also looking forward to the next!

Got my coins. I'm keeping one and placing the second one as a FTF prize.

 

How do we activate the coins if we want to activate them?

Per the OP

You can get the activation codes from www.geocoinclub.com once they enter the codes in the system, should take just a few days.

When will the unique icon show up?

I activated one of mine and the other one is up along a trail in the hills in an ammo can. As soon as I finish putting out the rest of the series someone else will have my second coin.

[+Balla & Silly 0]

We still haven't got our 2 coins. When were the international shippings sent out?

We are still waiting for an answer and haven't got our coins yet. It would be nice to get a reaction, thank you.

I too am sitting here waiting for the Christmas coin. Today I received coins sent from the USA last Wednesday. I sent you an email asking you the same question when were they sent??? I have traded one of the coins and had hoped it would get back to the USA before Christmas this year. UK Christmas without the Christmas coin:(((
