+The Mars Bars Posted July 22, 2006 Share Posted July 22, 2006 Do the coins have an icon? To get an icon on geocaching.com Groundspeak demand a minimum minting of 500 coins. So I guess the answer is no. Quote Link to comment

+Marsh and About Posted August 20, 2006 Share Posted August 20, 2006 Thank you for all the feedback everyone has given us................It would seem that the design/coin has gone down very well with all concerned. As you may be aware, Groundspeak have changed the rules regarding custom icons and we are now trying to secure a custom icon for our Lancashire Geocoin. We have e-mailed them about a week ago to ask the question, but have yet to receive a reply................will keep you posted ! yours hopefully, John & Brian Does anyone know of who specifically we could contact for further info ??

+Marsh and About Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 No further news as of yet regarding the Icon other than we are going to have to be a little bit more patient. Apparently staff shortages have lead to the delay.......but we are still optimistic that the Icon will arrive in the not to distant future ! We've been promised a further update next week and will let you know as soon as we hear anything !! cheers, John and Brian Quote Link to comment
+Marsh and About Posted October 25, 2006 Share Posted October 25, 2006 Still no Icon........but it is on it’s way! Latest news from Groundspeak is that the Icon has been further delayed to staffing problems and therefore, “It will be added within the next month.” So please be patient as everything is being done to secure the Icon.

+harrogate hunters Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I just wish to appologise to everyone purchasing a second rate geocoin (from a yorkshire born lad ! ) LOL ! Looks a good coin... looking forward to seeing one in Yorkshire ! Quote Link to comment
BWBlackett Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 I just wish to appologise to everyone purchasing a second rate geocoin (from a yorkshire born lad ! ) LOL ! Looks a good coin... looking forward to seeing one in Yorkshire ! Thanks for your helpful comments........... All Lancashire Geocaches have now activated anti-yorkshireman defences. Nettles, brambles and all other thorny plants will now automatically attack any parts of your exposed body. . . . . . Thinking about it we don't need to activate the defences - you never see a yorkshire man outside of yorkshire. Quote Link to comment

Can't wait for that Icon ! John Quote Link to comment
