+Brawny Bear Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I have decided to mint a personal coin. This will be my one and only coin so I will take preorders. I have made it easy to order with a link below. This is NOT a commercial site nor am I soliciting anything other than preorders. I am expecting a turnaround on these coins in 6 - 7 weeks. I am ordering through CoinsandPins.com. (I hope it is OK to say that ) Anyhow, the first 99 will be antique silver and the next 400 will be antique bronze. These are shaped like the ZUNI bear so they are irregular. The picture should be self explanatory. Please visit the website below if you are interested. I take CC and paypal and of course personal checks. Just keep in mind that the first 99 coins are for paid orders and not promises of sending in the paperwork. I set the site up to make it easier on everyone. I asked for permission from Groundspeak prior to setting it up. The coin design has been approved and it will be trackable on geocaching.com and have a custom Icon as well. Questiosn should be directed to me - griff at griffweb.com Order Here! My Personal Coin Also, I will work with the shipping. If the actual cost of shipping is less than what you paid, I will refund a portion of the payment. I am not trying to make anything off this, just supply a good quality personal coin at a reasonable price. Thanks! Mike Quote Link to comment

+Team Laxson Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 Nice Coin! I ordered two, but got a reply that my order failed. But the transaction shows on my Paypal Account. Will you confirm that you received the order? Thank you! Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted January 24, 2006 Share Posted January 24, 2006 I couldn't see anywhere to order 1 of each metal, so I put it in the notes field. Also, my paypal email address is different from the email address I use for correspndence so hopefully that order was matched up somehow. Quote Link to comment

+Brawny Bear Posted January 24, 2006 Author Share Posted January 24, 2006 Are you looking to trade these for other coins? I hate to say this, but, I am not really a coin collector. I was planning on keeping 25 of the bronze coins, although the first coin will be solid silver , and I might be interested in trading. It depends on how many I end up with. If I have 200 coins left over, then I will be glad to trade.. I just know nothing about this and would have to consult my coin trading guru here in St. Louis.. I will let you know as soon as I look at the sales.. I had no idea I would have this kind of response to a personal coin.. Thanks everyone for the orders! Quote Link to comment
