+icetoad Posted March 15, 2007 Share Posted March 15, 2007 (edited) I think it is cool to have some safety reminders in our caches... Sometimes we take this hobby/sport for granted and get to comfortable we won't get hurt. Your coin spreads a great message. I heard on a podcast that a family was attacked by killer bees while geocaching. Although the family got out alright. the family pet's leash wrapped around the bicycle and the dog did not make it. I can't imagine watching Maggie die like that. That's it then, no more leash for my dog when we're caching. Edited March 15, 2007 by icetoad Quote Link to comment
+J10fly Posted March 29, 2007 Author Share Posted March 29, 2007 Ok the samples have arrived! I'm down to the very tough decision of what metals to make it in! The coin came out looking great!!! The glowing eyes are just eary! My favorites for the metals so far are the Antique Bronze/Antique Silver/Antique Copper/Gold Antique Bronze: Antique Silver: Antique Copper: Gold: Nickel: Copper: And the Glowing Eyes: Jayman11 Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I like gold and bronze best. Quote Link to comment
+0R0B0RUS Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I like the three antique finishes - when your ready, put me down for a set Quote Link to comment
CLAMM Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 WOW! Love 'em. I'd like the antique metals best too. I'd like at least 1 of each metal.. Quote Link to comment
+007BigD Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 I like the Antique finishes as well, I probably wouldnt get any of the shiny finishes. Glad you decided to use the glowing eyes! I would be in for 1 of each metal and maybe an extra gold, so put me down for 4 Quote Link to comment
+J10fly Posted March 29, 2007 Author Share Posted March 29, 2007 I'm not taking reservations on these but if you are on my email list i will let you know when they are ready for sale. These will also be sold on geoswag like my previous designs. The antique finishes look great but I also am going to have one real limited version which i may do in the shiny gold. It looks really cool but i am undecided right now. Jayman11 Quote Link to comment
keewee01 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 Photos (even though they still look real good) just don't do coins the justice they usually deserve in the end. They look awesome and I imagine will be even better in real life. I think the copper might be the most aluring... which is odd as I usually go for antique metals I take it the glowing eyes are on the back only? Quote Link to comment
