+derschlings Posted August 31, 2007 Author Share Posted August 31, 2007 MANY THANKS to everyone for their input. Instead of just one quip on the back, what do ya'll think about this? Kinda like a bathroom stall where everyone gets to wax eloquent... Quote Link to comment

+sweetlife Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Yes! You got it. The coin just like the last picture posted will make this coin complete. Make it trackable and we think people will want these like crazy. They would definetly be very popular. Keep us posted and we cross our fingers to see this coin be minted and be available for purchase. Barry and Val sweetlife Mountain, WI. Quote Link to comment
+derschlings Posted September 5, 2007 Author Share Posted September 5, 2007 Okay, I need a little more help: I need names of geocoin artists who do great 3D work. What you've seen is pretty much the limit of my ability. I am waiting to hear back from Groundspeak regarding whether they will approve it for tracking. Keeping my fingers crossed.

+Accordiongal Posted September 5, 2007 Share Posted September 5, 2007 Chris Mackey of Fox and Hound explained how he made the snake skin at the MWGB. The 3D side is very intersting, not only a snake, but also coiled in the geocacing @ symbol. Quote Link to comment

+501_Gang Posted September 6, 2007 Share Posted September 6, 2007 If your selling you might want to do a pre-order, this one might sell out fast like the FSM coin! Quote Link to comment
+derschlings Posted September 21, 2007 Author Share Posted September 21, 2007 GREAT NEWS. The coin, as shown in post 51, has been approved for tracking. Getting bids from a few minters. Here's what I know so far: it Will be trackable on geocaching.com 2" tall 3.5 mm thick bronze basemetal antique finishes... final to be determined after I get the samples in hand. My biggest question now is how many to mint. Quote Link to comment

+Frozen Buns Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 (edited) Sounds like a fun theme coin, I would buy it to put beside mine:D FYI There is a personal coin due to arrive in hand in the next week or 2 with a VERY similar item on the front. Wasn't going to let it out of the bag but was enjoying the posts...be on the look out for the pics. Samples were in hand 2 weeks ago and order for first minting was placed.....so anixious, at least now I know folks like the idea associated with my name Edited September 21, 2007 by Frozen Buns Quote Link to comment
+bugsmasher69 Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 As I posted at the beginning of this thread, I want 3 or 4 of these. Please put me on any list you have. Quote Link to comment

+BBWolf+3Pigs Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 GREAT NEWS. The coin, as shown in post 51, has been approved for tracking. Getting bids from a few minters. 2) make a cointest out of this and award a LE version of the coin to whoever comes up with the best graffiti for the back that will make the coin really funny AND approved by Groundspeak. So, who gets the LE coin? Quote Link to comment
+Big JohnP Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I'd be in for a couple of the coins. Quote Link to comment

So, who gets the LE coin? Hmm, do I win since my suggested quote is at the top of the "cache"? Or does the TNLL get billing as the "top log"? I'd originally put down interest in 2 or 3, but if my quote ends up on the final coin as the artwork shows, I'd be interested in a few more. Quote Link to comment

+DresselDragons Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 (edited) The bathroom in my in-laws' cabin is decorated with outhouse wallpaper...we'll need to save up for a few of these coins. I bet the in-laws will even want a couple...it's definately their kind of humor...they have a toilet TB (it makes flushing noises)! All I gotta say is...that's one "crappy" coin!

I'd originally put down interest in 2 or 3, but if my quote ends up on the final coin as the artwork shows, I'd be interested in a few more. Still have all those things to do like starting with finalizing artwork. My plan is to mint however many REs will meet demand, an LE version for each of those whose ideas are represented (this version may be purchased as well), a different LE version that will be reserved by me for trade only, and some XLEs for really special trades. I'm even entertaining offering a lucky few to custom order a finish (XXXXLE) in trade for a couple coins that are real high on my wish list. These ideas are all subject to change, except I will never re-mint any LE or more limited coins. I don't plan on reminting the RE version either as I think that does lower the desirability of the coin for anyone who likes to order a couple "trader" coins. I'm hoping to do a PreSale once I have samples in hand. That way everyone should be able to get the regular version without having to worry about staying up until some horrible hour of the morning just to try to place an order. If you're on this thread, and you want to order an LE, I'll be reserving one for you also. I don't have a trading list anywhere yet. Working on that. Can't wait to have this coin in hand!

+derschlings Posted October 7, 2007 Author Share Posted October 7, 2007 I'm pretty sure this forum is just for trackables. Once I'm happy with the art on the trackable version, I'll probably proceed with a non-trackable: http://members.cox.net/marksprimejunk/ The non-trackable version will be by preorder only or trade. Any interest, I'd need you to contact me through my profile, I'll keep a list and we'll see if there's enough interest. Quote Link to comment
+Accordiongal Posted October 8, 2007 Share Posted October 8, 2007 Waiting for all versions. Accordiongal Quote Link to comment
+derschlings Posted October 27, 2007 Author Share Posted October 27, 2007 Looks like we're going with this art. Will probably have a matching little outhouse pin also. Non-trackable version may be available in the not to distant future also. Waiting on sample coins to decide which finishes will be where in the lineup. I don't think my schedule will afford me the luxury of taking orders/shipping these myself, so I'll most likely leave the selling of the REs to the pros. I'll have some to trade along with the AE/LE versions. Can't wait to get the coins in hand! I'll post pix as soon as that happens. Thanks to everyone here for all their encouraging words.
