+cacherelle Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 LOL was just perusing fleabays coins and stumbled across this beauty can't believe anyone actually bid on it Quote Link to comment
+TX Diva Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 How funny! Mama Cache was telling me about this very coin just a few days ago. She even told me how someone was showing how it was "trackable." Quote Link to comment
+cacherelle Posted July 28, 2007 Author Share Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) LOL whoever it is, certainly has a sense of humour, I like the they offer to scratch in Le or XLE to make it more desirable for you!! Edited July 28, 2007 by cacherelle Quote Link to comment
+lindsychris Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) We were offered this coin at the After Party at the MWGB. You should see how it's trackable... The owner/creator of the coin (not the person sellng it) had a good time harassing me about it! Edited July 28, 2007 by lindsychris Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Yes, the tracking feature on this coin is classic Quote Link to comment

+derschlings Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 OHHHHH Mannnnn... am I ever gonna try to snipe this one... Quote Link to comment
+Damenace Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 I posted one of the question on this coin due to my interest. I am considering bidding on it for nothing more than the novelty of it. Can someone please fill me in on the "tracking" of this coin? If needed please feel free to email me to explain. Quote Link to comment
+lindsychris Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Can someone please fill me in on the "tracking" of this coin? If needed please feel free to email me to explain. Let's see how I can do this via a forum post and not conversation... You can track it...Person A has the coin and hand it to Person B. Do you know where the coin is? You tracked it from Person A to Person B. Quote Link to comment
CinemaBoxers Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Hey, if someone wants to waste money on ebay fees - more power to em! LOL Now.. where did I put that Cheeto that looks like Elvis? Quote Link to comment

+pghlooking Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 Rumor has it there is another one that might make an apperance on eBay that will get even more attention. Reportedly there is an error coin amongst this minting and we all know they are worth way more! Anyone else notice there are over 700 views to the auction with 35 watchers? Let the sniping begin!

+Mama Cache Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 The guy at Hogwildstuff didn't mention minting? WOW! That coin does have powers! I should have gotten a sample for my "personal collection" when they were in my grasp. Or at least a "ME". Quote Link to comment

Flying Spaghetti Monster Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 (edited) This one generated a few complaints, but now that I've looked at it, it appears to all be in good fun so I'm going to let it go. Let's not make a habit of this, though......remember: Edited July 29, 2007 by Flying Spaghetti Monster Quote Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 I have not a clue what someone could complain about with this coin or further this thread, other than the obvious hairball your cat is suffering from. Although the simple fact that these people were out bid is always an issue. Maybe I should sell a sense of humor coin, of course they wouldn't get that one either. Quote Link to comment
Flying Spaghetti Monster Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 The point is that it is a non-trackble coin (not even a geocoin) being linked to on eBay. Leaving it stand opens the door for other limits to be pushed. I left it because it was obviously tongue-in-cheek and the forums can always use a little good laugh now and then. <----Gift horse, mouth. Don't look inside, ok? Quote Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 Thanks and no worries. The next one going up is fully trackable with a "Mystery Icon". Quote Link to comment
+Johnny4x4 Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 anything that is worth blogging about is worth checking out. and if it takes $15.00 to do so, then thats $15.00 worth of fun for me. besides the fact that there is always something to use to bring up a conversation at a meeting of geocachers if anyone was really in need and wanted it, they would have outbid me Quote Link to comment

What's in side, what's in side!??? Is it a Copper FSM geocoin?? Is it? Is it? Finally had a look at the thread and had a good laugh... I wonder if this coin is immune to the FSM effect?

You mean.............................people don't have a sense of humour round here And after me putting a warning under the title too - definitely see why Dorkfish made the piranhas now!! Sorry if it gave you any grief FSM, over the pond it would've been welcomed with much amusement Quote Link to comment

+CrossRoadNomads Posted July 30, 2007 Share Posted July 30, 2007 Was able to obtain one of these beauties while at the MWGB after party... WoW, Looks like I have a gold mine! Wouldn't even trade this one for an Indy Diver V1 (unless someone offered) LOL... ROTF! Quote Link to comment
+fox-and-the-hound Posted July 31, 2007 Share Posted July 31, 2007 I got mine at the MWGB party as well, and have to say it's a beauty! So sleek, so shiny, it practically oozes with that golden shine that makes you lie awake at night dream of geocoins. I really like the tracking system and it worked with 100% accuracy every time. Definitely will remain in my collection for a long time and be the center of many geocoin design discussions in the weeks and months to come. Quote Link to comment
