+dhenninger Posted April 1, 2007 Author Posted April 1, 2007 Details on the coin: 27 Coins Made (numbered 1 - 27) Hand cast from Silver Solder (Lead Free) There are no extras of this coin, due to the mold being accidentally destroyed. Happy April Fools Day Quote

+GeoSmurfz Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 DHENNINGER thanks for the token. That was a great April Fools joke. But since I do like homemade swag more than geocoins and being such a great joke. I have to put this homemade item on the top of my fav. list. Thanks I got #5. Quote
+rivercity Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 I waited until it was April 1 somewhere. I knew it was round because I've rolled it back and forth in the envelope the last couple of days. The dhenninger bear! This is the cutest token! Thanks, Dave! Hope your April Fool's surprises are all as nice as this one! Quote

Well, I figured we would have the joke done before the post office was open, so that wouldn't happen (BTW, if anyone had sent us a replacement, we would have returned it) Quote
+Markle Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 LOL! Thanks for the token! My very first item off of these forums. I'm so proud. Quote
+007BigD Posted April 2, 2007 Posted April 2, 2007 That was a good one! Nice wait job! No smelly fish, but a cool little April fools token! I wish I got in on this one! Quote

+dhenninger Posted April 4, 2007 Author Posted April 4, 2007 Hope everyone had a good laugh! I had a good time Quote
+Bunya Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) Thanks Dave for #14! I had been worried when I saw in the previous postings that the envelope would say “Do not open until April 1”, and as I got it today (April 4) I would have had to wait a year. Fortunately it said “Do not open until April 1 2007” so I obeyed this! Loved the coin, but the 4-1-7 had me puzzled for a few seconds until I remembered that you mob put the day and month backwards. Congrats on a great April Fools project! Now what will I put in the eBay sale? One of only 27 made . . . . Edited April 4, 2007 by Bunya Quote
general_tupperware Posted April 4, 2007 Posted April 4, 2007 (edited) So if it's arrived in Australia it should be in my mail box right now... I'll go check. EDIT: It's not... Maybe their postal service is faster than ours Edited April 4, 2007 by general_tupperware Quote
glennk721 Posted April 5, 2007 Posted April 5, 2007 Well I stayied way clear from this thread once I saw everone waiting for April 1st, I did not want to read what the postal had in it untill I had mine in hand , Thanks for #8 and the great fun !! My mail comes by carrier pigeon as just got envelope yesterday Quote
general_tupperware Posted April 6, 2007 Posted April 6, 2007 Woohoo. Got the sig item in the mail yesterday. Although I must admit I was dissapointed to hear I would not be recieving a bunch of unactivated coins for my collection, I didn't feel that way when I saw the item. This is a very cool sig item. Nice and heavy, good detail, and handmade. I'm thinking about making some sigitems soon.... Again, thanks for the April Fools joke, and the cool coin that came with it. GT Quote
