+AtlantaGal Posted February 13, 2007 Share Posted February 13, 2007 What will the base metal be for the blanks? Zinc or something heavier? Hey, you stole my question Please don't go the cheap route with zinc on these. It really ruins great designs! Quote Link to comment

+CacheHunters42 Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) Aye matey's me treasure's been plundered!! 1st run of Gold 1.5" coins are all but gone. Is there still a demand? If so more Gold or a Matte Gold finish? There will be a Silver 1.5" version coming out in June! Edited April 11, 2007 by CacheHunters42 Quote Link to comment
+geoSquid Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 I have to admit... When I saw the subject "Pirate's Booty" I immediately conjured an image of Jennifer Lopez in a pirate queen get-up. Looks like a cool coin design though, even if it doesn't have a pirate queen on it Quote Link to comment
+geoSquid Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 (edited) Arrrrr matey... double post! Edited April 11, 2007 by geoSquid Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Well as a collector, I'd like to see gold not remade, but I think making some in silver or even copper is a great idea Quote Link to comment
+CacheHunters42 Posted May 8, 2007 Author Share Posted May 8, 2007 The final 50 Original Pirate's Booty Polished Gold coins are now available HERE. We have received the second minting which includes Silver Plated Coins and Matte Gold Plated Coins. They will be posted on our site Saturday May 12, 2007. Check back here for direct Links.

+0R0B0RUS Posted May 9, 2007 Share Posted May 9, 2007 Well as a collector, I'd like to see gold not remade, but I think making some in silver or even copper is a great idea I agree! But they went ahead and minted a matte gold finish coin along with the silver. Quote Link to comment
+CacheHunters42 Posted May 9, 2007 Author Share Posted May 9, 2007 Well as a collector, I'd like to see gold not remade, but I think making some in silver or even copper is a great idea I agree! But they went ahead and minted a matte gold finish coin along with the silver. Just to clarify some things. We always hold back some coins so that we have replacements for shipping issues that arrise from time to time. So the remainingPolished Gold coins are available. We minted 250 Polished Silver, since there are Gold and Silver Dabloons still being found today in certain areas of the world. The Matte Gold is another version we minted 200 of since we have received many requests for the Polished Gold. Matte Gold is not Polished Gold it is another version Just like antique Gold is yet another version of Gold. We did listen to AtlantaGal's request to not mint any more Polished Gold coins. And this is the last Minting of this 1.5" coin! If the demand is there we may do a Silver Micro version. Quote Link to comment

I just today picked up on this thread, and feel lucky to snag a few of these that are available today. There were like 19 or 20 left when I got done. I would like to know when the Micro version comes out, as I have a few micro's that I like to throw the smaller coins in. Thanks, these are super cool! Steve AKA Salty-Eagle Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted May 12, 2007 Share Posted May 12, 2007 FYI: The silver & matte gold are in the cart. I just purchased some. Quote Link to comment
