The official sale date and time is Saturday, March 18th at 9pm EST and Sunday, March 19th at 12pm EST. Half of the LE coins will be available at each time. This should allow for everyone in the US and our friends across the pond to be able to take part in the sale of the coins.

 

Here is the icon

I will need this information also:

Geo Name:

Full Name:

Full Mailing address:

Country (if other then USA):

Email Address:

PayPal Email Address:

Number and Type of Coin(s) wanted:

 

 

I will post the email address to send your requests to here at that time. You will use a special password for the subject line for each sale. It will be a different email address from my profile address. I will be going by the time stamp on the emails. So emailing me for LE coins before that time on the second sale will not count. I will come to the forums and give a new password for the subject line to use.

 

If you ordered LE coins on the 1st sale you cannot order anymore LE coins on the second sale.

 

Let me know if there are any questions.

Due to some last minute changes that drove the cost up a bit I am having to adjust the prices of the coins a little. I hope this will not be a problem.

 

$9.25 Regular edition - Antiqued Silver: 250+ unlimited (may be more if demand asks for it)

$9.50 Limited edition - Polished Gold: 150 made/125 sold limit 2 per person

$9.50 Extra Limited edition - Polished Nickel: 100 made/75 sold limit 1 per person

 

Also if there is a large enough demand I may consider making 200 polished gold/selling 175 coins, but there will not be anymore than 200 of these.

For those that expressed buying the coin in the original thread are you contacting them directly or do we have to be on the forums @ 12pm Eastern also???

 

I have emailed everyone letting them know about this thread and you I see have already found it. Thanks for reminding me to do that. ;)

The Coin order will be placed tonight. Over half of the orders have been filled. If you still wish to get some of these coins before they are all sold out you can go here to preorder or email me for an invoice. Anyone that wants their invoice now please email me and I will go ahead and send it to you to pay. Thanks for all your orders. I will keep you updated on anything you want to know.

 

Traders: I will be getting back to you in the next week or two. Just give me time to get this completed order finished and sent in. Thanks!

Recieved mine today and activated it . Is this coin supposed to have a special Icon ??

 

Yes it is and when I activated one of mine I inquired about it on the 16th or 17th and this was the reply I got back.

 

Hello,

If your icon doesn't change to your custom icon you can email contact@Groundspeak.com. However there was a thread in the forums that explained that these icons are uploaded once a week or so, and you just activated that coin. So you can either wait for it to be uploaded, or you can email and see if they'll be able to get to it right away. Here is the thread: http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=129113 with more information for you. My best advice is just to be patient and it will happen. If it doesn't show up after a week, then contact them.

So I was trying to be patient until the week was up and hoped it would be uploaded by then.

The icon is suppose to upload some time next week for those that activate their coins. I am still waiting on the black nickel coins and will ship those to who I have made trades to as soon as they come in. There are still some coins available to purchase and trade.
