+wesleykey Posted May 2, 2008 Share Posted May 2, 2008 Hey all, Did this project die? Getting closer and still want to have one. Look as if everyone wants to control it but no one wants to take action. Again, I offer to take the project and finish it. The art work is not mine, though, and I really don't have the right to run with it unless the designer gives permission. Quote Link to comment

The art work is not mine, though, and I really don't have the right to run with it unless the designer gives permission. I don't think it was a matter of not wanting to take action. We just really wanted to make it trackable, which I know doesn't matter to everyone - but seemed like it mattered to enough people - and not really everyone that was posting on here. I know it has been awhile. Not that I am making excuses - but awhile ago we decided to have me stay home with our children and cut our income WAY WAY back. Collecting so many of these coins was unfortunately one of the things we had to cut out. Amazing how much money was flying out the door I sure miss getting fun shiny stuff in the mail every day..... I know many of you know what I am talking about. We should have information very soon. Atwell Family has offered to work with us to get this out very soon. I have sent him our artwork and am going to let him run with it. I will have them update once they are ready to take the next step with it. Mrs. Blue Power Ranger Quote Link to comment
+Blue Power Ranger Posted October 13, 2008 Author Share Posted October 13, 2008 (edited) Maybe a Moderator can edit the title to reflect the coins are now available for presale.. It has been a little while - but wanted to say we are very excited that this coin is finally available for presale! A big thanks to Coinsandpoins and Michael Atwell for making this coin a reality after we were not able to completely take care of it ourselves. It is available as a presale in both polished gold - at coinsandpins.com and polished nickel - at coinsandpins.com Looks like they are working with us to have a special finish available for purchase by whoever is a hider of one of the 51 caches. If I understand correctly, there will only be 51 of these available. We will be contacting all 51 hiders in the next week to see if they would like to purchase one of these coins. There will also be a special finish available as a gift to people that have actually finished all 51 caches. Additional information on these coins - Measures 2.25" across Translucent colors Epoxy coated for added protection Trackable on Geocaching.com An icon unique to this coin will show on your profile when you log a discovery We are very excited to have this become a reality!!

Mrs. Blue Power Ranger That's great! Hopperz and I are very excited! I couldn't get the link to work, but went on to their website to take a look. Thanks to all for getting this put together and thanks to all those cache hiders for making this Cache Across America Challenge a success. Quote Link to comment

+Astro_D Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 This is one neat coin! As a CAA owner, I'm excited to see this coin come out. I have already pre-ordered two, but will be ordering a few more before deadline. Quote Link to comment
+oldnavy59 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I ordered 2 (1 of each metal) can't wait to see the owners edition. How many folks have finished all 51? Quote Link to comment
+Blue Power Ranger Posted October 14, 2008 Author Share Posted October 14, 2008 I ordered 2 (1 of each metal) can't wait to see the owners edition. How many folks have finished all 51? Right now there have been 2 finders, but we have some people pretty close. As he said up above, webscouter is only 8 away. We know of someone that is 2 away. There are a quite a few people with a lot of finds. Quote Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 Are only the first 51 hiders eligible for a hiders coin? Or are you minting coins for the original and the replacement hiders. Quote Link to comment

+Rockin Roddy Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I remember that design, GREAT you went with it my friends!! I especially like the "breadcrumbs" you had thought to use, looks great! This is coin was a long time coming, but the wait was well worth it IMHO...I'll be wanting an owner's coin for certain!
