Nacaya Posted September 24, 2006 Share Posted September 24, 2006 (edited) Almost every Geocacher has found a tick after caching. And most of them didn't make friends with it.. Well, this might be the first tick a Geocacher wants to have! This coin is an homage to the most unpopular companion of a cacher. Size: 1,5" (38mm) Color: soft cloisonné (smooth surface) Finishes: Regular Edition: Silver Antique: 125 coins, 7 $ Gold Antique: 125 coins, 7$ Limited edition: black nickel: 75 coins, 8 $ Special edition: Two tone (gold on silver) antique, 9 $ Icon: Sure, this coin will get its own icon Trackable: Yep, on geocaching.com The coin can be ordered here I look forward seeing logs like this: Out: Matchbox car In: Tick Edited September 24, 2006 by Nacaya Quote Link to comment

+The 4 F's Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Reserved mine! This is one coin I'll never flip over - the front is really cute, but the back is too realistic looking! I HATE ticks!!! Quote Link to comment

+Team LightningBugs Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 (edited) My friend and I had the idea for a tick coin last spring, but neither one of us felt like actually getting it made. Glad somebody else did! Guess I'll have to get a couple then, huh? Edit: I love the quote "You'll never walk alone" LOL Edited September 25, 2006 by Team LightningBugs Quote Link to comment
Nacaya Posted September 25, 2006 Author Share Posted September 25, 2006 Had to get one! It reminds us of a fellow cachers poker chips that look like this: I saw the token the very first time when I read Frodo_Underhill's mail some minutes ago. I definately didn't steal anyone's design by intention! If anyone feels so, I'm sorry.. Quote Link to comment
+Frodo_Underhill Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Similar designs from like minds. No harm done. Just frustrated that Nacaya got to the mint first. Que sera, sera. So if you like the design - buy some. Good luck with your coin's release. Quote Link to comment
+Vegas Gamblers Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 Reserved mine. Having encountered severel ticks along the paths, we could not resist this coin. Quote Link to comment
+Quoddy Posted September 25, 2006 Share Posted September 25, 2006 After finally caching on that I had Lyme's Disease...after the second outbreak of bullseyes...I thought I'd get a few of these coins to remind me of the six weeks of treatment, and the never quite fully recovered feeling.

+Bunya Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 (edited) After finally caching on that I had Lyme's Disease. Oh no - not another risk of caching! You catch Lyme's disease just from caching (no ticks involved)? Medical researchers had better be alerted Edited September 26, 2006 by Bunya Quote Link to comment

Nacaya Posted September 28, 2006 Author Share Posted September 28, 2006 (edited) Photos are in! The antique effect will be much more detailed on the 'real' coins later. The front (comic tick) won't be antique. Don't know why they did this on the samples... Edited September 28, 2006 by Nacaya Quote Link to comment
+Ayeska Posted September 29, 2006 Share Posted September 29, 2006 Great coin! Just ordered 2! Quote Link to comment

Nacaya Posted November 10, 2006 Author Share Posted November 10, 2006 Well, the coins finally arrived here (the parcel service didn't manage to find my house. But hey, it isn't easy.. It's directly at the road ). After about 2 weeks travelling through Germay *sigh* Now I'll stick the activation codes to the coins and pack them. So I hope they'll be shipped on Monday.
