Feedback On Coin?


Tank Hounds

Recommended Posts

I have designed my own coin and I wanted to hear what everyone thinks.

We have 6 dogs (4 bassets and 2 bloodhounds) and I wanted to do a coin that had a hound on it. All of our dogs are from rescue, so I wanted to "honor" rescue groups in some way.... I really like it, but I wonder what all of you think about it...I didn't order that many (only 100) since they are just for me, but I suppose if I get a huge response and people just have to have them that I can always order more.

They won't be ready for a few more weeks though. Just ordered them.

*snip*.....and I wanted to do a coin that had a hound on it. All of our dogs are from rescue, so I wanted to "honor" rescue groups in some way....

One of these days I want to adopt a couple of Grayhounds from one of the local Greyhound rescue groups. We are currently without dog (we lost both of the ones my B/F had this past April and March :) ). He wants to get another setter of some kind, English or Gordon, maybe so I'm going to wait until he gets his dog before I bring a Greyhound home.

 

I'd like a couple of these coins. Will you be selling or just trading? I have no coins to trade... :lol:

If anyone is wondering why we are the 'tank hounds" (probably not, but I wanted to share pics anyway!). My husabnd is in the Army and there are lots of tanks to take pictures on around the bases we have been stationed. So each year we take a picture on a tank. here are the last 2 years. (This year we have SIX dogs that we have to get on a tank! that will be interesting!!

You can see Pikes Peak in the background of the second picture!

 

I'm keeping track of the people that want to buy/sell (up to 75 coins) and I'll let everyone know when they come in!

You gotta love the dogs!! And, if you love the dogs, you gotta have some of these coins. If you have enough, I'd buy 4. 1 to keep & 3 to release & spread the message. 1 each for each of my rescued dogs :unsure:

Those are extremely nice looking coins. Anybody who ever had a hound would love to have one of these. That two toned head reminds me of my old hound. Even Buddy is anxiously waiting for the mailman... Glen

Under further thought and discussion I've decided to make 100 more of these coins.

I will have 100 that will be trackable and 100 that won't be trackable and will be numbered from 01-100

 

The only thing is that the ones that aren't trackable and will have the number from 01-100 on them will still SAY that they are trackable on geocaching.com....I couldn't change the coin itself.

 

Don't know if anyone would want those or not, but I thought that I would make some more so people could have some of each and either.

How about leaving a few blank? I have several coins that have gone missing and since I know some of them were destroyed in construction projects, I would like a few coins to have the local lazer guy burn numbers into. I thought about making a large blank and having him burn artwork in too, the problem with that is the artwork has not been approved by Groundspeak. Glen
