+Inter-Galactic Ice Weasels Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Love the design. Can't wait to get one! Quote
+GeoBrowns Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Now this will be a fun and nice addition, way to go! Look forward to adding this to my collection! Quote
+Kealia Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Groundspeak will be producing this coin design (or at least something very close to this design). Of course, it will be trackable. Details to follow asap. -Rothstafari Woo hoo! The Precious! Quote
gridlox Posted January 12, 2006 Author Posted January 12, 2006 (edited) ... but they were pleased enough with my concept to run with it!! Oooops! Giving credit where credit is due!! I miss spoke there. IN MY EXCITEMENT TO SHARE THE DESIGN OF THE COIN, I TOTALLY FORGOT TO GIVE CREDIT WHERE CREDIT IS DUE!! ATLANTA GAL WAS THE ONE WITH THE CONCEPT FOR THIS COIN AND THIS WAS JUST MY INTERPETATION OF HER CONCEPT. SORRY AG!! D-man (Adding above to my original post. Heaping apologies to AG!!)

+hydnsek Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Great idea for a coin, and excellent design! Glad to hear Groundspeak is going to run with it for this year's CITO events. Can't wait! Kudos to AtlantaGal and Gridlox for the concept and cool artwork. Quote
+Big JohnP Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Yep! They both deserve a good hand for bringing this project forward on the forum.I think it really ignited something here. Great idea and great coin. I can't wait for these to come out. Quote
+The Amigos Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I would love to have a couple of these, also. How do I get on a mailing list so that I can be notified when ordering starts? CITO is so important to our sport! Peggy (The Amigos) Quote
+Shop99er Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Waiting patiently........ Not me!! I'm waiting, but I can't even spel payshent!! Quote
+cainrcc Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Very cool idea. I suggest to make it trackable with a cito icon and it would be nice to make them buyable only for cacher, who have a cito log from a cito event. I think, this would help to increase more cito events which are very helpful for nature.best regards Marc Thanks to Groundspeak for producing this coin and to atlanta gal and gridlox for the great design and concept for the coin.I realy like the idea to make them buyable only for cachers who has attended a cito event.Trackable would be great also.

+DocDiTTo Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 I'm hosting a CITO event on April 22, and would love to pick up some of these as door prizes for those who attend. PLEASE do everything possible to make sure we can have them in hand by Aprill 22 (which is CITO day this year) And THANKS for taking this on Groundspeak! Quote
+Team Maddie UK Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 It is an awesome coin and I do hope GC runs with it. Everyone holding a cito could order some for those attending...I know I would:) Lynn Quote
Blodlizrd Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Gridlox, that's a great looking coin. I love your designs. GJ! Quote

+TMOCM Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 Hopefully Groundspeak will be nice enough to give atlanta gal and gridlox a few coins for the idea and artwork on this coin. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted January 12, 2006 Posted January 12, 2006 (edited) Hopefully Groundspeak will be nice enough to give atlanta gal and gridlox a few coins for the idea and artwork on this coin. I've heard through the grapevine that gridlox will be receiving some coins for the artwork. I think I, however, have been forgotten Edited January 12, 2006 by AtlantaGal Quote

Ditto these sentiments, we need to get more cachers CITO-ing. Will watch for the announcement of availability, I want to get some as giveaways at our local CITO event this year. Awesome idea & design, thanks Groundspeak for picking up on the idea. Quote
Captain Chaoss Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 WOW !!! I've never been a huge fan of the "Signal" character for my T-shirts, but that is one AWESOME coin ! Can't wait for these to be available. Quote
+TeamVilla5 Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 I realy like the idea to make them buyable only for cachers who has attended a cito event. Whoa! Not so fast there... some of us haven't been caching long enough to have attended a CITO "event," but regularly CITO at each of our caches! Happy Cachin'! Lori V. TeamVilla5 Quote
SCP-173 Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 WOW !!! I've never been a huge fan of the "Signal" character for my T-shirts, but that is one AWESOME coin ! That's the first time I've ever seen someone say they're not a fan of Signal. I don't think my heart can take it! Quote

+Longfram Kev Posted January 13, 2006 Posted January 13, 2006 Love to have some for the UK, CITO event coming up in Edinburgh in April Quote
+MissJenn Posted January 17, 2006 Posted January 17, 2006 For those of you interested in further topics about CITO, surf on over to: Groundspeak Forums -> General Geocaching Discussions -> Cache In Trash Out Quote
+Kealia Posted January 22, 2006 Posted January 22, 2006 <Bump> Just wondering if there's a rough ETA yet. Mahalo. Quote
+TellFamily Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Does anybody know of a waiting list? We are hosting a CITO day event & would like to get some for give-a-ways. Would hate to miss someting & have them all sell tto fast. E-bay is not my idea of fun! (seems like all the coins always end up on e-bay) Quote
+Brawny Bear Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Is it trackable? I would like to see it either way... I would buy a couple! Quote
SCP-173 Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 Is it trackable? I would like to see it either way... I would buy a couple! I would hope that it's trackable, otherwise Groundspeak would have to ban themselves from selling it. Quote

+Team BO Posted January 25, 2006 Posted January 25, 2006 I would also be in for a couple! Cool design! Ben Quote

+cainrcc Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 What ever happened to this coin ?? Did I miss the order thread for them ?? Quote
+jamrasc Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 They haven't been sold yet. I'm pretty sure they'll be on sale soon at the Groundspeak store. Quote
+DresselDragons Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Do ya think it will be the April Signal coin...in honor of Earth Day? Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 Do ya think it will be the April Signal coin...in honor of Earth Day? This would be my best guess. We'll probably see this design as the April coin in the Signal Series. Quote
+Rusty O Junk Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Do ya think it will be the April Signal coin...in honor of Earth Day? This would be my best guess. We'll probably see this design as the April coin in the Signal Series. I hope not because that would mean we'll get them around June and I'd like to have some to give away at our CITO event. Quote

+trippy1976 Posted March 3, 2006 Posted March 3, 2006 Currently not part of the Signal Series. Should be on sale around 3/15 or so. Starts shipping immediately - they will be on hand when the sale begins. Quote
+robert Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 (edited) it's up http://geocoinstore.com/viewfullcoindescri...n.php?coinid=47 Edited March 16, 2006 by robert Quote
+pdxmarathonman Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 It took me awhile to find the $6 price listed. Quote
+Kealia Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Finish: Misty Silver....? What the heck is that? I'm guessing each company names the finishes something different, so what is this? Antique? Polished? Can anybody name another coin that has this finish for comparison? Quote
gridlox Posted March 16, 2006 Author Posted March 16, 2006 Looks REALLY good!! TPTB - Don't forget your promise to AG & me!! Eagerly waiting for them!! Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Kealia, Satin Silver? Crome? LOL! TPTB - Don't forget your promise to AG & me!! Eagerly waiting for them!! I already emailed Bryan just to touch base. I plan to buy 2 anyway just to be sure Quote
+BenGeo'en Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 I hope to get ten or fifteen to hand out at the April 22 CITO event. I also think they turned out great!!!! Quote
+trippy1976 Posted March 16, 2006 Posted March 16, 2006 Misty is like a satin finish. Antique is kind of blackened up a little. This is silver with a matte or satin finish. Quote
