+AtlantaGal Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 Payment sent. Whew, these are sure expensive with the exchange rate. I made the mistake originally of calculating to Euros, which was reasonable. I forgot the UK uses the Pound. Quote
+Jan and the Percey Boys Posted May 19, 2006 Posted May 19, 2006 . I forgot the UK uses the Pound. Quote
+macatac1961 Posted May 25, 2006 Posted May 25, 2006 (edited) Like AG, I also miscalculated the price. But it came today and it's a great looking coin. Nice job, thanks. BTW, what does "Wheear' as ta bin sin ah saw thee-Geocaching?" mean? Edited May 25, 2006 by macatac1961 Quote
+tin-ear Posted May 25, 2006 Posted May 25, 2006 Whew! That was fast ! Got mine today, and they are gorgeous! Quote
+Zork V Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 In My day we never had Geocoins We had to use the silver foil from the milk bottle, if we were lucky!! Quote
+Yorkshire Posted May 26, 2006 Posted May 26, 2006 Yorkshire to Canada in 3 days...amazing. Great looking coins. May have to get more Quote
+Black Pig & the Piglets Posted May 27, 2006 Author Posted May 27, 2006 BTW, what does "Wheear' as ta bin sin ah saw thee-Geocaching?" mean? Ah! I wondered how long it would take someone to spot that. The unofficial yorkshire anthem is "On Ilkley Moor Baht 'at" which translated from Yorkshire dialect means " Ilkley Moor without hat" The tune can be heard here Ilkley Moor Baht at melody & the words with translation are here Words The phrase"Wheear' as ta bin sin ah saw thee-Geocaching?" literally means "where have you been since I last saw you - Geocaching" I hope this explains a few things & I'm happy that you like the coins DaveH aka Black Pig Quote
+Black Pig & the Piglets Posted June 10, 2006 Author Posted June 10, 2006 Folks, the Yorkshire coin Icon is now up & running after a bit of a delay, apologies for that. As some may know the project is a joint effort between me & MikeG. I dealt with the orders admin, whilst Mike did the logistics legwork ( he thinks I got the easy bit:P ) . The sale has gone well & we have sold the bulk of the 500 coins, we are down to the last 50 or so of each now. If anybody wants any hints or tips on producing their own geocoin please feel free to ask. We have learned a few lessons on the way & would be happy to share. Thanks to everyone who has bought the coins, they seem to have gone down well & the feedback has been positive. Anyone who still wants one & has not placed an order should get a move on. Regards DaveH Quote
+Black Pig & the Piglets Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 July and still no coins (4)! 4 replacements sent, no problem. Quote
+Black Pig & the Piglets Posted July 20, 2006 Author Posted July 20, 2006 (edited) The Yorkshire geocoin foray is fast approaching it's close. We have about 50 left & when these have sold we will put the project to bed, forever. Anyone still wanting one of these handsome coins had better get their skates on. I am about to go on holiday, so MikeG will be dealing with the sales whilst I'm away. Thanks to everybody who has purchased the coins in the past.
