+Cornerstone4 Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Several of you have suggested that I start a new topic for this, so here it is! We have released the coins for production, and I anticipate receiving them sometime around the 20th of this month. (February) The coins are 1.75" long, and are a copper finish to match his actual smashed pennies that the design is based on. There will be 5 coins finished in antique silver. 3 for the family, 1 to auction, and if we can figure out how to do it, 1 to raffle. You can purchase the coins HERE, or else email me if you want to pay by check. Thanks again for all of your help. Dave Link to comment

Tup Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 just purchased one.... thank you ! Link to comment
+Hula Bum Posted February 6, 2006 Share Posted February 6, 2006 Our group is taking care of ours, thanks for the opportunity! As for the raffle. What about taking all the names from the buy it list and stickin' em a hat? Hmmm, that counts us out cuz we're in a group buy (unless the groups send you the names of everyone), if you're using excel or something to keep track, then just # pieces of paper and the number will match the name in that line. Just a thought. Link to comment
+terri and billy Posted February 7, 2006 Share Posted February 7, 2006 I've requested $30 be moved from my bank to PayPal. It will be a couple of days but I'll take 3 and will pay as soon as the money transfers. Terri Link to comment

+Cornerstone4 Posted February 8, 2006 Author Share Posted February 8, 2006 I forgot to post the final artwork for this coin, so here it is. There has been some confusion. This is an actual coin shaped like a smashed penny, it is not just a smashed penny. I just wanted to make sure everyone was clear on that. Thanks, Dave Link to comment
+jamrasc Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Dave, I sent you paypal last night for 2 directly to your account. Did you get it? Link to comment
+ZackJones Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Where are there two different dates on the coin? On the front it says 1/13/06 and on the reverse is says 1/12/06. Link to comment
ParentsofSAM Posted February 8, 2006 Share Posted February 8, 2006 Where are there two different dates on the coin? On the front it says 1/13/06 and on the reverse is says 1/12/06. I think his accident was on 1/12 but he did not pass away until 1/13. Link to comment

I tried at 0725 Chicago time. Thanks Biggeek Ben Let me check on that for you...it should still be working. I have received several more payments today, so the link is still working. If you are having trouble, you need to add the coin to your list as "seeking". Then, click on the check mark by your name in the list, and then the PayPal link will be there. Email me directly if you still have any problems. Link to comment

Terri I'm not sure on that one. You can try emailing Marc and Willie on the cointracking site for help. We haven't even sold half of the coins yet, so don't worry about missing out. If all else fails, email me, and I will give you my PayPal address to send payment to. Link to comment
+terri and billy Posted February 10, 2006 Share Posted February 10, 2006 I figured out error 40 and finally got logged in this morning. Amazing what a good night's sleep will do for you! Paid for 3: one for me to keep, one for a new cache by the newest bike shop (just opened last month) and one for my girlfriend's daughter. I think Bikedog and Amy would have really gotten along even though she's only turning 14. Amy caches and collects smashed pennies. She also rides as a passenger on bikes whenever she can! I bought this coin for her as a birthday present. Terri Link to comment
