+The Lost Geeks Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 (edited) The first Cape Breton Island Geocoin. This coin is trackable on Geocaching.com and has it own icon. It is in the shape of Cape Breton Island. Only 250 trackable coins were made. The coin was minted in Antique Silver (75) and Black Nickel (175). On the back of each coin is "Ciad Mile Failte". This is Scottish Gaelic for "A Hundred Thousand Welcomes". Also "Lorgadh sibh e aig:" is Scottish Gaelic for "you will find it at". Along with the Gaelic, the colors were specifically chosen to represent Cape Breton Island. BLACK for the wealth of our coal mines (Black Nickel) GREY for our Cape Breton steel (Antique Silver) GREEN for our lofty mountains, our valleys and our fields GOLD for the golden sunsets they can be purchased at this link <Indirect link removed by moderator, direct link inserted> Edited March 29, 2007 by Eartha Quote Link to comment
keewee01 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 NICE coin!!! And I like your caching name too! (I'm a geek, and proud of it!) Ordering some coins right now. Quote Link to comment
keewee01 Posted March 29, 2007 Share Posted March 29, 2007 (edited) Oh... I can't order any coins as "No shipping available to the selected country"... Help - I can't get past 'Step 1 of 3 - Delivery Information' because of the above error. Or am I just cursed to not have these coins? Wanna trade instead?

+fairyhoney Posted March 30, 2007 Share Posted March 30, 2007 to tell you the truth, I was going to order 3 and 1 of your micro but didn't feel like paying the $14.00 for shipping.... Sorry! Quote Link to comment

Sorry! I am afraid that it was the Micro that put you into our regular shipping rate to the US. 3 or 4 coins is $5.00 shipping to the US. We can ship at a cheaper rate for our regular products, but it would not come with any insurance. Unfortunately in Canada, shipping costs that require tracking and insurance are not cheap. I wish we could ship for the same rates like in the US. Anyway, thanks for the feedback. Edited March 30, 2007 by The Lost Geeks Quote Link to comment

+Sandtracker Posted April 1, 2007 Share Posted April 1, 2007 Ordered a few of each, was helped out by the Canada/USA exchange rate. Than a day later I got a Paypal credit for shipping , thanks guys! Quote Link to comment
+The Lost Geeks Posted April 1, 2007 Author Share Posted April 1, 2007 If you find the shipping charge jumps up really high please send us an email. The store is automated but if you have questions or issues with the charge please email us. Most coin orders will ship for a resonable price even if a couple other items are added depending on the item. The Lost Geeks Quote Link to comment
