[Pre-Order] Berlin Geocoin

[Not So Lost Puppies]

... and as far as I did understand it, they will be regional / geographical coins.

Thank you for a solid clarification of the type of coin thse are. Maybe next time this can be decided before the coin is announced and released so it doesn't cause as much confusion and grief here.

 

Orginially thse were designated to have a PC code. Now that you have stated without any doubt that these are not personal, but rather regional/geographic coins, does that mean you will be changing the prefix to another code since PC is reserved for only personal coins? Or is GC allowing anyone to do any type of coin now and just put a PC code on it?

 

I believe they always allowed anyone to make any sort of coin (with GC approved design) and get the PC prefix, even an organization could do that if it didn't want to spend the extra $ of a custom code.

 

PC is the generic coin prefix for anything that a special prefix wasn't bought.

Though they expanded and now have a EV prefix for event related coins, those previously would only be PC unless the organizers spent the extra $$ for a custom prefix.
