+tsunrisebey Posted May 22, 2007 Posted May 22, 2007 Available on May 24th, at the Caching Place, is my Native American inspired design called the "Whale Trail" geocoin. Check out the link for all the details, including a neat photo and explanation behind the design! I hope you enjoy the design as much as I enjoyed drawing it and watching it come to life in the form of a trackable coin. http://www.thecachingplace.com/shop/pc/vie...p;idproduct=226 A HUGE 'Thank You' goes out to Georgia and Sharon who were gracious and confident enough in my design to take my hand drawing and make a geocoin out of it. Most of you know that the Native American lifestyle/worldview is a huge part of my life, a part of who I am, and one of my majors in school. I'm happy to see one of my small dreams come true. It's trackable with it's own icon (icon can be seen in the picture) 1.5" in BN Colors are blue and green translucents *AE will be done in gold with a slightly darker blue and green (25) tsun Quote
+Droo Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Very nice, high 5!! And here I thought I'd give my credit card some time to heal only to find that the mints are producing coins faster than I can repair the damage. I'm definitely gonna hafta get a couple of those, or more. Quote
+UOTrackers Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Steph those are beautiful! I probably haven't mentioned it before but I have two Indian tribes in my heritage and I love many tribal designs! I also love sea life so this coin will go into my collection rather than Bella's. Perhaps we can arrange an AE trade! Thanks for adding such beauty to the geocoin world! Quote
+GPX Navigators Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Oh wow tsun! That is a beaut! Awesome coin. Well done. ANd welcome home! Missed ya! Quote

+Renegade Knight Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Whoop's I thought this said Whale's Tail and that's a whole nother thing. Quote
+fox-and-the-hound Posted May 23, 2007 Posted May 23, 2007 Whoop's I thought this said Whale's Tail and that's a whole nother thing. I almost fell out of my chair when I saw the title and was still a little suspicious until I started reading. Nice coin though. I like the vibrant colors and simple, clean design. Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted May 23, 2007 Author Posted May 23, 2007 Thanks for all the kind compliments on the coin all RK and F-at-H....you guys are too funny. Quote

+tom4props Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 I especially like the symbolism of the whale and the turtle. The meaning behind the coin is really quite fascinating. Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted May 24, 2007 Author Posted May 24, 2007 As always, we Must be patient. Argh Only 45 minutes Quote

+tsunrisebey Posted May 24, 2007 Author Posted May 24, 2007 Thank you for supporting the coin! tsun Quote
Ferreter5 Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Ordered up a pair -- can't wait to see 'em. I'll have an extra one for trading if anyone's looking to trade for one of these. Quote
+GPX Navigators Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Got a couple with one to set free on the trails. Looking forward to seeing this coin in person. Nice job tsun! Quote
+AUTommyJ Posted May 24, 2007 Posted May 24, 2007 Picked up two... my first Geocoin! One for me... and one to set free. Now back to waiting patiently for my new GPSr to arrive. Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted May 24, 2007 Author Posted May 24, 2007 Thanks for the supporting this coin you guys and gals I hear the sales are going well with over half of them sold tsun Quote
TokyoBlossom Posted May 25, 2007 Posted May 25, 2007 I would love to trade for one of these, if someone got an extra. The $2 handling fee is a bit much since I would only want one. I have my trading list in my signature, and I have geocoins that are paid for and I will eventually have in my collection list. Thank you! Quote
+tsunrisebey Posted May 25, 2007 Author Posted May 25, 2007 (edited) http://www.thecachingplace.com/shop/pc/vie...p;idproduct=226 I believe there are some left So bumping the thread. Anyone interested in trading for the AE version, drop me an email. I'm willing to trade out a few when they are in hand. (Mine are shiny gold w/ a darker blue and darker green...sorry no pic yet of them). tsun Edited May 25, 2007 by tsunrisebey Quote
