Jake - Team A.I. Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 I've noticed a few threads lately asking for information concerning things like number of coins made and the size of coins. I was planning on making a page that has links to all of this kind of information. Well, I finally got off my duff and put the page together. It can be found: Geocoin Reference Page. I started the idea of this page to help people I have met at event caches who have asked me how I've put my collection together. With the search function disabled from these forums, a lot of the links are lost in threads now buried. Quote
+ScoutingWV Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 A centralized resource could be useful. Good luck with the project. Have you considered putting a searchable database behind it, or are you planning to keep it at the level of links to other pages and web sites? BTW - the search function seems to be back. Quote
+Geo Gypsy Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Great Job Jake..............Thanks a bunch for the usefull info........ Quote
+Anthus Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Very nice. Wish I had this when I was starting gmy addiction. Do you mind if I link to your page from my website. I have a page of my own that I wanted to collect such info. Quote
+WWC-World's Worst Cacher Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Great Page! Can I link to it? Quote
+graylling Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 (edited) I didn't see Hirlas list of coins minted. or am I just blind??? edit: ok I'm blind... Edited February 11, 2006 by graylling Quote
kcart Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Sweet. And I even made the survey. (Shucks folks, I'm speechless.) ©¿©¬ Quote
Jake - Team A.I. Posted February 11, 2006 Author Posted February 11, 2006 I'm glad you all like it. kcart - I really liked the way you put your listing together so I thought I'd add it to the list, I'm glad you appreciate it. I'm already receiving messages with some links I seemed to have missed. You may notice one company missing from the list of places to have coins minted. I won't refer to it by name, and I won't be adding it to my list either. There are other threads discussing it's problems, and it seems like this company's name is the the one most often to come up when problems arise. Please feel free to link to my page... and please, if you notice any pages that are missing, foward the link so that I can add it to the list. Quote
+Cach-U-Nuts Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Please feel free to link to my page... and please, if you notice any pages that are missing, foward the link so that I can add it to the list. Awesome Job Jake!! We'll be linking it from The Caching Place if that's alright... Very good information, thanks for the time spent in putting this together!! Now tell me....when are you going to make that AZ coin Quote

+Chaos A.D./aka Arlsdaddy Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Wow! I feel honored! Guess I better catch up on my photos as I have many I haven't posted yet Quote

Jake - Team A.I. Posted February 11, 2006 Author Posted February 11, 2006 btw, I think you may want o check the link second to the bottom of the sales group on the page. If that isn't the site you are refering to, please forward it to me. Due to the forums rules, I have been suggesting that you post requests for links to be added to be forwarded my email address. there is a link at the bottom of the reference page where you can do this. I know this thread will eventually get buried in this forum soon enough. I'd like to see it live long enough so the page will become famous on it's merits. Posting links here in this thread will only bring the moderators down to lock the thread and cause it to die young. Quote
+Mystery Ink Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Search function isn't disabled just to let you know but very nice list. Quote
SCP-173 Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Wow, even my now defunct url is on there. At least anyone who clicks on it will be treated to some owls before getting redirected. Quote
+Chaos A.D./aka Arlsdaddy Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Wow, even my now defunct url is on there. At least anyone who clicks on it will be treated to some owls before getting redirected. WHO? LOL! Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Wow I love it! Thanks for organizing all that info! Quote
+Eartha Posted February 11, 2006 Posted February 11, 2006 Don't worry about your very handy reference thread disappearing off the page. I've added it to the Newcomers Guide pinned thread. Nice work. It should be very helpful. If anyone wishes to provide links for Team AI's geocoin reference page, you may do so through private email or the private message button provided for your convenience.

+pdxmarathonman Posted February 12, 2006 Posted February 12, 2006 Another for the Geocoin Listings section: http://www.beckydavis.com/dave/ Quote
Jake - Team A.I. Posted March 5, 2006 Author Posted March 5, 2006 Well, my page has been up for a month now, and i've received over 1500 hits. If there is something you think I'm missing on the page, please let me know. I want this to be a one stop reference for all things geocoin. I think the page has doubled in size since I first posted it. This is all thanks to the many people that have sent me links or have asked for grouping of certain types of pages. Quote
Jake - Team A.I. Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Bump??? Well sort of. I've given the page a new look and an index near the top. The first link is still being worked on, but everything else is still there... along with some new links I've recently added. I moved the list of places to buy coins near the very top of the list since I think that's what most people are looking for on the page anyway. And again, if anyone see something missing, let me know and I'll add it as soon as possible. Quote
+prntr1 Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Great work, the green is mighty bright on the eyes though Thanks for doing this. Quote
ParentsofSAM Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Nice! Your page is great...I use it often. But I do have to agree about the green. After looking at the page for a bit it took a minute for my eyes to adjust after leaving to look at this page...LOL! Quote
+Eric K Posted June 28, 2006 Posted June 28, 2006 Quick note. You may want to change the link that says USA Geocoins code to coincodes.com That site now has multiple coin activation codes. Thanks Eric K Quote
Jake - Team A.I. Posted June 28, 2006 Author Posted June 28, 2006 Great work, the green is mighty bright on the eyes though Thanks for doing this. Sorry about that. My color blindness allows me to ignore how bright the green actually is. I'm blind to certain shades of red and green, but I can drive just fine. I'm making adjustments now. Quote
