Coins and Pins 2007 CITO Geocoin

[WI_Robin]

Here is a peek at the CITO Coin that will be sold at Coins and Pins starting Sunday evening.

 

 

 

These coins are 1.5" and 3.5mm thick and have a great translucent color with texture underneath. They are trackable on geocaching.com and have their own icon. They come in either shiny gold or shiny silver. I am not sure of the price, but these coins will be going on sale begining 8:30 Eastern - 5:30 Pacific time at Coins and Pins.

If you are looking for a CITO coin Coins and Pins will have this coin available soon:

 

 

If it looks a little like the "CITO Around the World" coins that's because both coins are based upon my ideas. I am holding a CITO event that is the kick off event for the 6 week long Chippewa Valley Geocaching promotion in conjunction with the visitor's bureau. Originally I thought that there would be funding available for a CITO coin from the visitor's bureau. A few weeks after I started promoting the event I was told this was not the case. Not wanting to give up on the coin I changed it to a more generic type and approached Coins and Pins and The Caching Place to see what I could do to still have a coin, without cleaning out my savings account. The original coin was a micro and neither where really interested in doing that. I had the first contact with Georgia from the Caching Place and told her that I had a different idea for a non-micro coin. That resulted in the "CITO Around the World" coins. (Thanks Georgia for all your help and the great coin!!) After I had presented that idea to the Caching Place, Coins and Pins got back to me and said they could do the original coin, but not as a micro. Well, I had a dilema................... So instead of choosing I went with both. I just hope the Coins and Pins CITO coin sells as well as the "CITO Around the World" coins did, or per our agreement, I will be buying lots of CITO coins- but at wholesale prices. The coin idea was presented to Jamie at madhattersneverland, he did the original design and Aaron at Coins and Pins worked it into this great coin!! Just changing a few things really made the design a lot better!! Thanks Aaron and Elyssa!! I don't know the exact date, but they should be available soon.

Ordered one in each metal this morning!
