+9Key Posted August 10, 2007 Share Posted August 10, 2007 (edited) The Texas Geocaching Association is proud to announce the upcoming sale of our 2007 Texas geocoin! The coins will go on sale in late August on our web site and will be in the $7 to $8 range. Coins well be sold via a private sale to Texas residents before we open it up to "foreigners". The vitals: * trackable on geocaching.com with "TX" prefix and custom icon * approx. 1.75" in diameter * 3mm thick * brass base metal * polished nickel standard edition * polished gold LE * 300 minted in first run - if we sell out quickly we'll mint more in a different finish to differentiate the mintings I'll post something here when I get a firm sale date.

+9Key Posted September 9, 2007 Author Share Posted September 9, 2007 This year's coin is nearly 2 inches in diameter and is 3 millimeters thick. It is a big heavy coin! Brass is the base metal with a shiny, polished nickel finish. The coin is trackable on geocaching.com and has its own unique icon: Please note that this is a pre-order. The coins are expected to ship the first or second week of October. 300 coins are being minted but more will will be minted if demand warrants it, but that's not very likely. Price: $8.25 each Order here: http://www.txga.net/2007.asp Quote Link to comment
