+GA Cacher Posted February 26, 2006 Posted February 26, 2006 Having trouble getting my activation codes from Oakcoins. I have 2 coins and neither is in the database. Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted February 26, 2006 Author Posted February 26, 2006 There seems to be a problem with the codes right now. I have contacted OakCoins and will let everyone know when it is up and running. Sorry! Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted February 26, 2006 Author Posted February 26, 2006 Some have been mailed. Some people got their coins at an event yesterday. There will be an update on the rest of the coins this evening. Please stay tuned! :D Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted February 27, 2006 Author Posted February 27, 2006 Ok so here is the update! We noticed yesterday after some coins had been mailed that the coins have an error in the coloring on them. The minter has been great in getting this situtation resloved. We are getting the coins reminted to be correct. So no more coins will be mailed out until the new coins get here in about 2 weeks. Sorry about that. For those of you that already have or are about to get the coins. If you want me to mail you the corrected coin then you need to email me with the tracking numbers and metal type of the coins you have. Please do this within the next 2 weeks. parentsofsamNOSPAMatgmail.com I am very sorry about this! I hope no one is too upset about the whole thing. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted February 27, 2006 Posted February 27, 2006 Like I told you. I'm ok with mine. It's such a minor error. In case anyone wonders, the bangs on the one little girl were inked flesh tone rather than the brown hair coloring. Quote
+LadeBear68 Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 Wow, I don't see it in the pictures above. Where is the mistake? Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted February 28, 2006 Author Posted February 28, 2006 That picture is of the sample coin that are correct here is the picture of the coins with the minor mistake: The top coin is one of the 2 that is correct and the bottom 3 are the others. Quote
+Teamhawaii1981 & blueicyrose Posted February 28, 2006 Posted February 28, 2006 I got it. Can I keep the mistake? I kinda like the way it adds to the "history" of the coin. Quote
+ZackJones Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Both of mine have the mistake. I'm keepin' 'em Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted March 1, 2006 Author Posted March 1, 2006 I got it. Can I keep the mistake? I kinda like the way it adds to the "history" of the coin. You can keep the mistake if you would like to. I like your view that it adds to the history of the coin. Quote
+Doc-Dean Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 minting errors or printing errors on currency make them more valuable and rare. So by all means, replace everyone elses coins so that my 2 coins become more valuable! Woo Hoo!! Quote
Not So Lost Puppies Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 PoSAM, You might consider removing the tracking on the mistakes and dropping them into caches as regular sig items (with notes about them no longer being trackable) (I think Kilted cacher was doing that with some of his mistake coins) [i'll take one for making the suggestion ] Quote
+Tharagleb Posted March 1, 2006 Posted March 1, 2006 Dateline NY - March 1, 2106 A rare ParentsofSam geocoin was auctioned off today for the record sum of $23,000,000,000 North American dollars. The geocoin had a defect in the minting process which resulted in flesh-toned bangs on one of the girls depicted. Only three of these coins are known to have survived, the other two are in museums.

ParentsofSAM Posted March 1, 2006 Author Posted March 1, 2006 LOL Do my great-grandchildren get some kickbacks from that sale? I sure hope so. Even just 1% would make them set! Quote

There not in a museum, Both of them are in Whittier, Alaska LOL I got mine today and think they look great!!! Quote
+Tharagleb Posted March 2, 2006 Posted March 2, 2006 There not in a museum, Both of them are in Whittier, Alaska LOL I got mine today and think they look great!!! Well, I was hoping mine would be in the mailbox yesterday but no such luck. I did get my Absolute Caching coins though. Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted March 15, 2006 Author Posted March 15, 2006 Ok here is an update: The coins will be here Thursday. We will have all coins packaged and mailed this weekend. Thank you for your patience with these coins. Sorry about the extended wait for them. **If you have not paid for your coins please do so ASAP.** Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted March 18, 2006 Author Posted March 18, 2006 International orders have been mailed today. Both US and International Trades have been mailed today. All other orders will be mail next week. Thanks for your patience and your orders and trades. Quote
+Tharagleb Posted March 29, 2006 Posted March 29, 2006 Are these all mailed? Have not received mine yet. Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted March 29, 2006 Author Posted March 29, 2006 Are these all mailed? Have not received mine yet. Yes they have been mailed. I send you an email. Quote
+Frisco05 Posted March 30, 2006 Posted March 30, 2006 Received my replacement coin with the propper colored bangs today. Coin looks really good. Also received a surprise with the package. It was a POS pin. The pin is an exact replica of the coin except the girls' heads are flipped around. Very nice to send those along. Thanks Quote
Blodlizrd Posted April 10, 2006 Posted April 10, 2006 (edited) I just found the problem... I will be getting with you soon. Edited April 10, 2006 by Blodlizrd Quote
