+Cornerstone4 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I posted a picture of this coin in the "What was in your mailbox" thread...but since I thought the idea of dual tracking numbers was pretty cool, I figured I would start a new thread so everyone could see it... Link to comment
+GPX Navigators Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Thanks for sharing & great for them. Cool idea. Link to comment
+Accordiongal Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Very interesting idea with concerns: Paying for two sets of tracking numbers increased cost Can and will create confusion for cachers looking to find two coins in cache, this will be an issue with one part of coin being virtually logged in one cache and physically in another cache. To solve the issue, would be bendficial to create an instant message that both sides of coin need to be logged to prevent above confusion of coin placement. Great to have someone who is willing to push the limits of geocoin creativing with tracking numbers. Link to comment
+Mama Cache Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 A Gold glittered filled version along with an antique silver will be available soon! Link to comment
lewis82 Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 What I do not understand is: What are you supposed to do with the coin? Log the two coins? Activate just one coin? Log only one of the coins (and un-log the other one from the previous cache?)? I suppose you can do whatever you like.... Link to comment
ParentsofSAM Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 (edited) I would think the coin is more of a collection piece rather than a traveler. Very cool! I like it it is very fitting for the coin to have the 2 tracking numbers since he is a reviewer and a player. Dual personalities, dual tracking. I bet it has two very cool icons also!

+Cornerstone4 Posted August 29, 2007 Author Share Posted August 29, 2007 Let me clarify something...since I have received emails on this. This is not my coin. (Well, the one in the picture actually is...but I didn't make this coin!) It was a gift to me. Link to comment
+OshnDoc Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 Didn't Avroair just have a topic out for a "2-tracking number" coin design? Link to comment

That's exactly my take on it. Last time I checked, the RoadRunner icon wasn't up. The first day I looked, the Moose icon was winking at me...now, it's just staring. Link to comment
+3Sparks Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 The moose icon is too cute! Link to comment
YemonYime Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I don't know Roadrunner/Moose Mob, but if that's his reviewer/player coin, then that is a cool idea in a unique situation. However, if the idea catches on to the point where cachers start buddying up with pals to create coins with two tracking numbers, and there's no change in the cost from GC...you're now talking an upfront $3.00 per coin that gets passed on to the buyer. That's now become a significant upfront amount that I simply can't justify paying for. Link to comment

I'd also be willing to wager that the volunteers get some sort of break on tracking numbers. There has to be some benefit to putting up with all the garbage! Link to comment
+Go JayBee Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 I want one (two)?...maybe two (four)? Link to comment
Son of Cyclops Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 A very cool and nice looking coin. Link to comment
+tadpole379 Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 Didn't Avroair just have a topic out for a "2-tracking number" coin design? I asked him about that..he said he wasn't serious about a double tracked coin... Link to comment
+501_Gang Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 So is there 2 icons too? If so do they some how 'link' each one to the other? Link to comment
+Cornerstone4 Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 So is there 2 icons too? If so do they some how 'link' each one to the other? Yep, there are two icons. I had to activate each side on it's own. Link to comment
+WWC-World's Worst Cacher Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 These coins will be available at Hogwild Stuff later this week. The price will be under $9.00 each. When they are available I will post the link and all of the specifications in this thread. Link to comment
