+Marky Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 You know the hobby is taking a turn for the worse when people start thinking that copyright statements are necessary.

+AtlantaGal Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Geocoin Standard...... I hear through the grapevine that many personal coins in the future will be coming out with this backside since it saves the cost of 1 die. Quote Link to comment

+Ladycacher Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) So your not paying a die fee for the back if your using that back on it. 16 bucks is to much and I also have to draw the line on this one, if anything can you explain why the cost is that high? I am interested in a trade for one if possiable. Edit: Does the 16 bucks include shipping? Edited January 16, 2006 by Ladycacher & Boys Quote Link to comment
Parrolet Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I would be interested in trading but not buying. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Is the price of the coin due to the exchange rate? I see that it will be sold on the zone website. Were the Frozen Bone coins purchased from the non-English site just as much? Quote Link to comment
+DRunners Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 it wouldnt be sold by cachezone. Quote Link to comment

+DRunners Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 yes but they do not sell the coin. Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I hear through the grapevine that many personal coins in the future will be coming out with this backside since it saves the cost of 1 die. What about your design. Please show us. My coins don't use this die. They do have the gc.com logo in the artwork, but the die was cast in May 2005. What I am speaking of is a deal between one of the minters and cachers where the coin is minted with them and the cacher only has to pay for the front side die since this standard backside die will be used for the coin. I think a few coins have already been produced with it in fact. NWPA 2006 comes to mind. However, I don't know if they just copied the artwork for their own die or used the free one.

+GBOTS Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Way to expensive to buy, might trade for one though. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Still in for 2. I have a question about the colors, you said in the original post that the the yellow and blue are the original GC logo colors, when were they changed? I found this part very interesting. Quote Link to comment
+DRunners Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 Maybe a little bit missleading. The colors we used unfortunately are not the original GC Colors since we could not realize them with the computer. But for the Original we plan to use the original GC colors. Quote Link to comment
+IceCreamMan Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I'd buy one. Quote Link to comment
+ShowStop Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Thats too expensive for my taste. The most expensive coin I've purchased so far was the World of Geocaching coin at $12.25 USD each including the shipping. In the end, I was kinda disappointed with the WG coin. Your coins would be almost $5.00 USD more then those, so I'll pass. Quote Link to comment
+DRunners Posted January 16, 2006 Author Share Posted January 16, 2006 This is the present design status (regarding price it seems we have found a much more inexpensive source without a reseller in between. We will offer a new price idea soon): Quote Link to comment
Rupert2 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I will have to trade for that one. Saved money by re-using the back die but still $17 before shipping? Congratulations! You just found the upper limit price-point on geocoins. Quote Link to comment
+Night_Hawk Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Way to rich for my blood, I'd trade for one though. Quote Link to comment

+Squealy Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I'd trade. Unless of course, the money is going to some kind of charity - like for fat kids who ate too many weinerschnitzels. Quote Link to comment
+LadeBear68 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I don't think that is the typical back and it looks like he is trying to come down in price, perhaps we should wait for a final answer on price. Quote Link to comment
hirlas Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I'd trade. Unless of course, the money is going to some kind of charity - like for fat kids who ate too many weinerschnitzels. you mean like the "Agustus Gloop House"? Quote Link to comment
hirlas Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 $17.00 -it does sound a little steep. Maybe Ill sell some coins for $150.00 each,,, hey, I only have to sell 3 to recoup my investment! Quote Link to comment

+graylling Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Having lived in the Rhine valley near Karlsruhe for 4 years I gotta have this one. I just hope the new price is somewhat more affordable. I've been to all the places mentioned on the coin. It's a beautiful area there. Quote Link to comment
