Nacaya Posted June 6, 2006 Share Posted June 6, 2006 (edited) Hi! I finally have decided to make my own personal coin: The coin can be ordered here The coin is about my other hobby, soaring. I piloted the glider at the front side many times. Needles to say I enjoyed it. At the back the bird-shaped shadow indicates the connection between the birds of prey and the gliders. Both gain, sometimes together, altitude by circling in thermal lifts. The coins will be shipped in july Greetings, Nacaya Edit: Forgot the editions: Nickel (Regular Edition): 300 (7.00 $) Gold (Limited Edition): 150 (8.00 $) Gun (Special Edition): 50 (9.00 $) Edit²: Size: 38 mm (1,5") Color: smooth surface, 5 colors front, 4 colors back Trackable: Yes, on www.geocaching.com Icon: Yes, this coin gets an own icon (still designing..)

+Twin Peaks Posted June 16, 2006 Share Posted June 16, 2006 (edited) Hi! I finally have decided to make my own personal coin: The coin can be ordered here The coin is about my other hobby, soaring. I piloted the glider at the front side many times. Needles to say I enjoyed it. At the back the bird-shaped shadow indicates the connection between the birds of prey and the gliders. Both gain, sometimes together, altitude by circling in thermal lifts. As most of you know, I don't collect personal coins (anymore). There are just too many, and I stopped buying them months ago. But I really like this one and the theme appeals to me too, so: wanna trade? a gold for a gold? please...? Edited June 16, 2006 by Twin Peaks Quote Link to comment
Nacaya Posted June 17, 2006 Author Share Posted June 17, 2006 Yeah, of course! Can't wait to see your little compass Quote Link to comment
Nacaya Posted June 20, 2006 Author Share Posted June 20, 2006 Just a little update for the ones who ordered: The photos of the samples should have arrived today. Should... But they seemed to have forgotten my order. So it will be friday until I can show you the photos of the samples... Sorry for that (though it wasn't my fault ) Quote Link to comment

Nacaya Posted June 27, 2006 Author Share Posted June 27, 2006 @ Elchrich Elch Feeling the same.. Still noch sign of the photos. Same trouble as Elchrich Elch: At the moment we have some technical difficulties with our homepage. If you like to place orders, you can do it also bei sending me a PM with your nickname, address and amount of the coins you like. Because one order was changed, I have now again one coin in black nickel (Special Edition) for sale.. First to come, first to get! Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I was wondering where these were and was about the email you for the status. Thanks for the update! Quote Link to comment
Nacaya Posted August 3, 2006 Author Share Posted August 3, 2006 Well, first they forgot to produce my samples/the molds. Later Groudspeak had this database problems.. I was wondering what else could go wrong But here they are! And they look so much better than the photos or the artwork Quote Link to comment
+chaosmanor Posted August 4, 2006 Share Posted August 4, 2006 ... And they look so much better than the photos or the artwork That's always a good sign Looking forward to seeing ours! Quote Link to comment
+Snowwolf75 Posted August 5, 2006 Share Posted August 5, 2006 Interested in doing a trade for my gold coin? Quote Link to comment
+chaosmanor Posted August 17, 2006 Share Posted August 17, 2006 Good News everyone!! Some minutes ago the coins arrived! Now I'm gonna stick the activations codes to the coins and will pack them. Ours came today Two weeks across The Pond isn't that bad, all things considered. Odd that the package was posted in the Netherlands, though; I thought you lived in Germany Anyway, these turned out very well I was going to put both of them out in caches, but maybe we'll keep one of them. Or maybe I should try to buy another one Quote Link to comment
