+J10fly Posted June 11, 2007 Author Share Posted June 11, 2007 Well everyone the samples have finally arrived and they are incredible! I am going to have a hard time on this one deciding the metals but I will have it shortly. Here's what they all look like. Ant. Gold/ Ant. Silver: Ant. Gold/ Black Nickel: Ant. Gold/ Nickel: Ant. Silver/ Ant. Gold: Ant. Silver/ Gold: Black Nickel/ Ant. Silver: Black Nickel/ Nickel: Gold/ Ant. Gold: Gold/ Ant. Silver: Gold/ Nickel: Jayman11 Quote Link to comment

+creacher Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Antique Gold / Antique Silver Antique Silver / Antique Gold Those combo's get my vote! Quote Link to comment
+wsgaskins Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Antique Gold / Antique Silver Antique Silver / Antique Gold Those combo's get my vote! Yes, the antique finishes look great here... But this combo: Ant. Gold/ Black Nickel looks creepier, I think. Maybe even more so if the skull's teeth were to glow. Or maybe that would just be to kitschy. Quote Link to comment
+jdawg1327 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Black Nickel/ Nickel: Ant. Gold/ Black Nickel: And all the rest too!!!!!! Quote Link to comment
+tadpole379 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Antique Gold / Antique Silver Antique Silver / Antique Gold Those combo's get my vote! I also like the antique silver/black nickel, but the back looks a little hard to read. Maybe if the text was filled with another color, it would have more contrast. Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I like Ant. Silver/Ant. Gold and the Gold/Nickel Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Oh boy do you have some tough decisions to make! Here is my 2 cents worth: 1. Ant. Gold/ Ant. Silver 2. Gold/ Ant. Silver 3. Gold/ Ant. Gold 4. Ant. Silver/ Ant. Gold 5. Ant. Gold/ Black Nickel All the others are great too but I tend to go with antiqued finishes rather than shiny finishes. Fewer visible fingerprints...

+Droo Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I like the best contrast.... ant. gold/ant. silver & black nickel/ant. nickel nickel/ant. gold but I wonder if the contrast I'm seeing is just an artifact of the digital camera. Quote Link to comment

SEXYGEOER Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Please let me know when these arrive. Thanks Quote Link to comment
+Marky Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Not that it would have made any difference, but in my opinion, the skull looks a lot better shiny rather than antique. The rest of the coin looks better in antique. My fav was Antique Silver/ Gold. Just a little late to the party... Quote Link to comment
+keewee Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Any update on when these will be available on geoswag? Quote Link to comment
+DresselDragons Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Any update on when these will be available on geoswag? I was wondering this too...we'll be in a technology-free zone next week (no internet, no cell phone)...I'm hoping that we will not miss out on this coin. Quote Link to comment
+J10fly Posted July 16, 2007 Author Share Posted July 16, 2007 I talked to geoswag friday and they said the mint was taking a little longer than expected because of the antique two-tone combos. It looked like they would be getting shipped from the mint sometime this week. I will shoot out an email when they arrive. Jayman11 Quote Link to comment
+Mr.Explorer3 Posted July 16, 2007 Share Posted July 16, 2007 Please put me on the want one or two list. Quote Link to comment
+J10fly Posted July 25, 2007 Author Share Posted July 25, 2007 They should be ready Friday so hoping they will be shipping that day and here the following week for shipment. These ones are killing me with anticipation, i wish they would come quicker but the process for this one was complex and just really through a loop in the process and made it that much longer to produce. But they are definately going to be well worth the wait!!! Jayman11 Quote Link to comment
