+welch Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Actually now that you bring it up, no I haven't seen mine either. But the mtn-man admin brick, and a GU coin made it so I'm still hopefull it will turn up. Quote Link to comment

+JLTx2 Posted April 28, 2006 Author Share Posted April 28, 2006 Not much write-up about the April coin. You have to look at the coin to see that it is april. I guess tax day was overwhelming for GCC. Thanks for your replies. Maybe it will be here soon. Quote Link to comment
+Lehigh Mafia Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Here is a question.. Why did they stop making the unique coins? I know that some fellow cacher's are designing some of the current one which is great and all, but why did the uniqueness of the coin stop? There was a time I really looked foward to getting them. But now I dont. Just wondering if I was the only one feeling this way.. Quote Link to comment
+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted April 28, 2006 Share Posted April 28, 2006 Nope your not alone. I did not recieve my April coin yet either. It says (in their forums)they did not get them out until the 24th. So it should be any day. I hope. Here is a question.. Why did they stop making the unique coins?

But now I dont. Just wondering if I was the only one feeling this way.. No, I feel the same. That uniqueness is why I joined in the first place. I also don't understand why it takes soooooo much to explain the May coin design. If it's that darn complicated with all of the symbolism, then don't make it. I cancelled my subscription and will probably sell or trade off the coins from April through the end of my subscription. Quote Link to comment
+SunshineGang Posted April 29, 2006 Share Posted April 29, 2006 I emailed them and they said there were some issues and they hope to be shipping soon. I think they emailed back last monday As far as the coins being unique this April is suppose to have some transparent enanmel. I have not seen any other coins with transparent enamel so I am looking forward to this one. Quote Link to comment

I'll have to agree the ¢ coin just led me to cancel that subscription. I'll continue with the coin club for now as I like most of what they've done. I didn't care for the Orange one (maybe that's why I forgot about it). Who knows... Quote Link to comment

Jake - Team A.I. Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 I got mine today as well. But I have to say I'm not impressed with this months edition. I didn't see the preview until just recently. I also saw May's preview, and I'm thinking my subscription is ending really soon. The first 5 out of 6 were just what I've been looking foward to. The group that's been coming with my second 6 month subscription have been a real disappointment. The only one that I've liked was the tribute to virtuals coin with the black light trick.

+AuntieNae Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 For me, May 1 and still no April coin .. perhaps tomorrow .. Quote Link to comment
+n8gni Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 For me, May 1 and still no April coin .. perhaps tomorrow .. Well here it is tomorrow and I don't have mine yet? Then again I live 20 miles north of the boonies and the mail here is a little slow! Quote Link to comment
+JLTx2 Posted May 2, 2006 Author Share Posted May 2, 2006 I have already ended my subscription and they owe me for April, May and June. I have NOT seen April yet. Quote Link to comment

+GBOTS Posted May 2, 2006 Share Posted May 2, 2006 We got the april coin last week, and I really like it.... The colors are awesome....IMO Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 This will be my first coin for my subscription and no I haven't received it in the Detroit area yet. Quote Link to comment
+welch Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 My April arrive yesterday. I think it actually looks a lot better than the artwork, sorta like a stained glass window But I still wish they'd move back to coins with lots of metal and less color for acents, borders, etc. To me the last couple (Feb, and March) have had a bit MUCH coloring.

+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Got mine today. It is a lot bigger than the last few. The coloring is neat as well. But I too would like to see more heavy metal type. But each coin is unique in it's own right. Every other one is different. Quote Link to comment
+Cornerstone4 Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 Got mine today. I like the concept, but I'm not sure about the overall outcome. I need to look at it for a few days and then see what I think. Quote Link to comment
+Rusty & Libby Posted May 4, 2006 Share Posted May 4, 2006 My April arrive yesterday. I think it actually looks a lot better than the artwork, sorta like a stained glass window But I still wish they'd move back to coins with lots of metal and less color for acents, borders, etc. To me the last couple (Feb, and March) have had a bit MUCH coloring. Making the front like a stained glass window was the intended effect and I think that worked. If you want less enamel you will like the May coin since it does not have any enamel and will be a PROOF coin. I have done one other proof geocoin and it turned out great so I have high hopes for May. June's design will feature two special effects, one of which I have yet to see on a geocoin even though it is very cool and the other effect has only been on one coin that I know of and I did that one.

57chevy Posted May 5, 2006 Share Posted May 5, 2006 I received mine yesterday, 5/4/06. As disappointed as I was in the shipping time, I really have to say that these are Outstanding Examples of what quality coins should be. It was definitely worth the wait. A lot of thought and effort went into these coins and it shows, Thank you. Quote Link to comment
+The Hall Clan Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 Cinco de Mayo, still no April. I canceled my subscription. I subscribed hoping for coins like the Benchmark, the FTF, etc. but have been disappointed in what I've gotten, they're all up for trade or already traded. Quote Link to comment
+ChileHead Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 I haven't gotten my April coins yet either. I cancelled my subscription after seeing a disappointing February & March coin (especially March, compared to the other coins made in the past), and I'm hoping that they didn't mess up and deprive me of my last coin. Any word on shipping to the rest of us? Obviously some have gotten theirs already. Quote Link to comment

Personally, I hope it isn't another blacklight required coin ... Quote Link to comment
