+Bunya Posted March 2, 2007 Share Posted March 2, 2007 (edited) <Spelling pedant hat on.> According to Wikipedia the form “traveling” is only used in the US (+ Philippines and Liberia). The form “travelling” is used everywhere else, and is a common alternative even in the US. So if this coin is for the whole world (anywhere under the sun) . . . . <snip> The Special Edition Coins are tainted with red and blue glitter enamels on the front and back. These will BLAZE !!!! Better wear sun shades when looking at these ! <snip> Tainted? This usually is a Bad Thing. Painted? Tinted? <Spelling pedant hat off.> Great coins! Added in edit: I just went outside into our real Blazing Sun! Outside thermometer is reading 42C+ (108F) in the shade - I daren't put it in the sun. These coins should feel at home here.

+Dr. Whoever Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 Thank you all for the great responses. I have to say that the artwork does not do these little gems justice. When they arrive I will post pictures. Make sure to wear your sun shades. They do have quite a sparkle. Quote Link to comment
keewee01 Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 (edited) I'll combine with Team Chelmo to get some. (You already have the email) Edited March 3, 2007 by keewee01 Quote Link to comment
+Dr. Whoever Posted March 3, 2007 Author Share Posted March 3, 2007 I just received confirmation these will be shipped on the 8th. At that time I will post pictures which will really dazzle vs artwork proofs. I decided to make a new deal for folks PRICE CHANGE.......No not more, LESS!!! I'll post the new price package and options when the coins arrive. Those that posted an interest order will also benefit from the new price break. I am borrowing a nice idea from Larry and the Missouri Hawthorn and Kansas Sunshine 2007 Micros I minted for him and want these Stunning Blazing Suns on every continent. Let's make these little dazzlers travel. Quote Link to comment
SoCalGeocoins Posted March 3, 2007 Share Posted March 3, 2007 Awsome coins, These look like they will be in the running for a micro contest, to see how many end up in caches. I know I'm going to put some out. Ordered 2 sets, Email Sent. Quote Link to comment

+Dr. Whoever Posted March 9, 2007 Author Share Posted March 9, 2007 The coins should arrive Monday, Tuesday if there are any slow customs workers tomorrow morning in Oakland. I'll try and get a good picture up tonight. Bear in mind the pictures will not do the coins justice as in the Luck 'O' The Irish and the Sequoia Coins. Pictures only see a coin one way. These coins will DAZZLE. Thank you all for your interest.

+Go JayBee Posted March 14, 2007 Share Posted March 14, 2007 I tried to resist temptation....but Castle Man's email kept taunting me....."JayBee, You must buy coins .....you need coins" I rushed to my coin binder and got out my GAA Coin, but it was too late...I hit that "Pay Castle Man Now" button....and it was all over. I'm still shivering...... I can quit anytime....really...I can. Quote Link to comment

I'm still shivering...... I can quit anytime....really...I can. Kind words. I really think everyone who has these will really enjoy the burst of sun. I'm hoping that a few of these get into caches. I plan on keeping dozens and activating them to travel. Now that the sets are off and running I'll be posting up individual coins soon at a travel price. Any interests in individual coins can blast me an email and we'll git er done. Thanks again to all CM Quote Link to comment

+Go JayBee Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Got my coins today....WOW that was fast! Great looking...now where is that 8x loupe, so I can read those Tracking Numbers? Quote Link to comment
+Astartus Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 (edited) Just got my set after 1 week of anticipation. Those coins are SO small but SO full of detail. Although the weather is cold and cloudy these coins have brought the sun back into my heart. I was intending to keep the Special and one of the other 3 and trade or send the other 2 onto a journey. Now it seems that I would have to order another set as the coins are too lovely to give them away *snickers* I would also instantly buy a bigger version of this beautyful coin. Edit: When activating those beauties, I noticed, that one of the coins had a false tracking number satrting with "BC" instead of "BS". As i'm quite unfamiliar with retrieving activation codes, whom do I have to contact for a working activation code (or should I simply replace the BC with BS when retrieving an online code?)

I haven't noticed any others with a mistake. If there are any please email me and I'll get you a replacement. Mints do at times make a few errors. Not to worry. All of my stuff is fully guaranteed and I'll get anyone replacements. CM Quote Link to comment
+Astartus Posted March 21, 2007 Share Posted March 21, 2007 Thanks to Castle Man who contacted me, replacing the BC with BS worked. Double Thumbs up! Quote Link to comment
