+MustangJoni Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 I like this coin. It is nice to see a group raise funds and bring in a nice coin at a reasonable price. Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 What is the icon for this coin? Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted December 7, 2006 Author Share Posted December 7, 2006 (edited) I like this coin. It is nice to see a group raise funds and bring in a nice coin at a reasonable price. Thanks! I did all the artwork myself and the hole was added after a suggestion from one of our members. That way our campers could use them as well as our cachers Icons: (also added to the post above) Edited December 7, 2006 by campertime Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Nice looking coin. It reminds me of the personal coin from Camp Explorer a while back. Quote Link to comment

+altosaxplayer Posted December 11, 2006 Share Posted December 11, 2006 I just emailed you about a possible trade. Nice coin! Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 6 more orders sent out this morning As far as trades go, right now I am not doing any trades. I'm hoping to sell enough coins to cover the cost of my camping club website. That magic number is 180. After that whatever I don't sell of the remaining 70 coins I may trade. Keeping a few of them for myself ofcourse Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted December 17, 2006 Author Share Posted December 17, 2006 Yeah, one of my coins is on the move http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.as...7b-422b3d62e644 Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted December 21, 2006 Author Share Posted December 21, 2006 Have any of you received your coins yet? How do you like them? Quote Link to comment
+9Key Posted December 21, 2006 Share Posted December 21, 2006 I received mine and its very nice. Very good design, and I like the keychain idea. Quote Link to comment
Cachefind4fun Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 This is a very unique coin...very colorfull compared to many that I have seen and its for a good cause. I activated the one I bought and have sent it on a mission around the US, maybe some of you will find it in a cache near you! I am going to buy a dozen more if there are any left, seams like this coin is getting VERY popular and Campertime only minted a very limited quantity. Quote Link to comment
+marine95 Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 These coins are wonderful. I have one that has been moving about Ohio and I bought two others that we are using as Keychains. If you are interested in one or multiples of them, just click on the link. Campertime is a great guy and put these together to represent our camping club. So if you like to geocache, or geocache and camp, this coin is perfect for you! Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted January 8, 2007 Author Share Posted January 8, 2007 cachefind- thanks for the nice words and yes I still have quite a few coins available. Nice to see that you sent your coin out on a mission marine95- thanks for the plug, the coins are definately cool! I noticed these are your first posts on the forum. I'm honored you chose to respond to my coin thread as your very first posts. Thanks for the response. Not too many have replied with how they like my coin. There are some very cool coins available here. Make sure you check them out. Quote Link to comment
+The Dream Cachers Posted January 8, 2007 Share Posted January 8, 2007 Email sent! We went on a Caching/Camping trip once, it was a lot of fun! Thanks Quote Link to comment
campertime Posted January 28, 2007 Author Share Posted January 28, 2007 (edited) Still have quite a few coins left if anyone is interested. Have to sell about 70 more coins to break even. So much for the fund raiser idea Edited January 28, 2007 by campertime Quote Link to comment
The Justice League of NM Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I received mine last week! I think they are fantastic looking! I will email you about ordering another. Thanks Ron Quote Link to comment

campertime Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 Minted 250 to get icons & tracking. That was the magic # when I ordered them. Thanks RON =) Quote Link to comment
