+ranger216 Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Well, here is my next project.. All the things we would love to do to those Geocoin thieves... Back of coin is a STOP sign and the front are some humorous images !! Coin will be 1.5" trackable at geocaching.com I need some input on coin # 3 and what metals I should use I am planning an icon also.. a STOP Sign of course Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 I've seen artwork for a similar concept but it doesn't use a stop sign and it's a larger coin so I think yours is different enough. I'd like to buy at least 1, but at the moment I'm running out of coin cash as I am sure many are. The market is simply oversaturated with coins too close to the holidays. I'd recommed holding off for January/February production. They would probably sell much better then. Quote Link to comment
hirlas Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Although I find this somewhat humorous, I think the image of explosives in a cache may not be the best image to put out there... just my .02 cents.

This is in the working stage.. and wanting ideas for the 3rd or possibly 4th coin for the set.. Had a suggestion about the concept with a Bandit trying to swipe a coin from a tank cache... you can imagine that one !! Quote Link to comment
+ArtieD Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 It would be ironic if they were the most highly swiped geocoins... Quote Link to comment

They're Gridlox's Nope!! Not mine either!! I just did the artwork! Actually I think it was nielsenc's idea!

+fairyhoney Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 How about the 3rd as a tombstone with "geocoin thief" or something like that. Anyways, please put me down for 2 sets when they're ready. thanks! Quote Link to comment
+Rattlingcrew Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 I hope I can buy, beg or trade for a set of these! I once ordered 500 ink pens that said "This Pen Stolen from Officer Soldan, Salina Police Department" I do not have any left. Everybody wanted one and most took one! Glen Quote Link to comment

Glen The church where I attend has attendance cards in the pews for visitors to fill out and also a way for members to communicate any prayers or praises they'd like to pass along. To make it easier for people to do this, they also have small golf pencils beside them as well. Once someone with a sense of humor had some custom imprinted pencils made to replace the dwindled supply. Printed on the side in shiny gold letters was "Exodus 20:15". Imagine the faces of people that didn't know the scripture and took them home, to only look it up later!! D-man Quote Link to comment
+fox-and-the-hound Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 Have to agree with the others on the subject matter. It's a good concept, but we get enough bad press about explosive containers without fanning the fire. There are just too many other good ideas without using these two. I wouldn't want you to give up on a good idea, but maybe edit it to be less inciteful. Cool design though Quote Link to comment
+tokencollector Posted November 30, 2006 Share Posted November 30, 2006 If you drop the explosive ideas, I hope you can find way to incorporate the picture of the geocoin thief in #2. It IS the best! Quote Link to comment
