Some of you have been wondering and waiting and now it is here. My own personal coin.

 

Here is a preview and details about it.

 

I will start the preorders on Friday, 4/28/06 evening at 9:00pm EST to sell half of the coins

The other half will be sold on Sunday, 4/30/06 at 12:00pm EST. I will post the email address and special subject word to use to order the coins at that time.

 

There will be 4 types made, 3 to be bought

 

$8.50 Regular edition – Black Nickel: 200+ unlimited (may be more if demand asks for it)

$9.00 Limited edition - Polished Nickel: 150 made/125 sold limit 2 per person

$9.50 Extra Limited edition – Satin Gold: 100 made/75 sold limit 1 per person

 

Extra, Extra Limited edition - Copper: 50 made - Very Special Trades ONLY

 

They are 1.75", 2D recessed and shaped

6 colors on front side & 2 on the back side

It will be trackable on geocaching.com with it's own special icon (providing there is enough sold)

 

Coin Club Orders will be welcomed - contact me

 

US shipping & handling fees

$1.50 for first coin – Regular Mail w/ Delivery Confirmation

$.50 for each additional coin – Regular Mail w/ Delivery Confirmation

$4.25 Priority Mail - Flat-rate Envelope (Small)

 

International shipping & handling fees

 

Canada

$2.00 for first coin - Airmail Letter Post

$.75 for each additional coin - Airmail Letter Post

$1.00 for each additional coin - Airmail Letter Post

There will be one MAJOR request on these coins. You are not to post these coins for sale anywhere until you have your coin in hand or I will refund your money and you will get no coins!

 

These coins should arrive in 3-4 weeks after I turn in the numbers. I will invoice everyone within 2 weeks. There should not be any longer than 1-2 week wait on the coins to arrive from that point.

 

Everything has been approved for the coins to be minted that can be at this time.

 

If you have any questions please email me.

Thank you!

 

Parrolet

Oh! As the mom of two parrots, there's no way I could not order one of these!

I doubt if I could afford a set, but (as long as they're not prohibitively expensive) please put me down for one. I'm not as crazy about the black nickel as the others for some reason, but I'll take what I can get.

This is definitely the geocoin I wish I'd had made for myself! :huh:

Will the preorder be on this thread, or a separate link?

I have a parrot lovin', non-coin collecting friend who must own this coin! I am trying to arm her with as much info as possible!

 

I will post here in this thread. Thanks for asking. I should have said that. :)

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.

 

Email your preorder to: parroletscoins*at* yahoo dot com

 

You will use this special subject line phrase FLYIN’ TO THE CACHES for the subject line for today’s sale. This is 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 for the second sale on Sunday.

 

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

 

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

 

Thanks,

Parrolet
