+pghlooking Posted September 11, 2007 Share Posted September 11, 2007 Well I was going to wait and take a break from this for a short time, but peer pressure has made me succumb to starting this group earlier than I had anticipated. I suppose that is not a bad thing since I would rather do this now than over the holidays and such. I opened the group a few days ago for members of the first two groups. I believe everyone interested in maintaining their flavors from those groups have responded, so the time has come to bring in some fresh faces. I will keep the group and this thread open for as long as I can, but once it dies off we will make the coins. I will post a last call when that time comes. The group will function in basically the same manner as it has for the first two rounds. You will get to pick the color on your coins, as well as decide the flavor of your bean. The coins will be minted in either a black nickel finish or a nickel finish. your choice. You can do both but there is a minimum of 20 coins per metal, per name, or per flavor. Another words you can do anything you want, but you have to maintain a 20 coin minimum within that specific order. There will be 2 gold coins minted with your order. 1 of these is yours to keep, like and owner's coin, while the other is a donation for a charity auction to be done later. Another words if you order 30 coins, you will receive 29, with 1 being gold. The cost per bean is $5.35 and we will continue with the flat rate shipping (domestic) of $8. International will be $12. So basically you can get a personalized geocoin set for only $107. This coin will have it's own icon, separate from the first two editions. This will be the last minting of the year, and I am not sure if we will do it again next year. This has always been done solely on demand. So don't hesitate, and get in on this edition before you miss out on the most fun project of the year. To join the group send me an email through my player account, or to pghlooking@aol.com with the subject of GeoJellies 3 in the subject. Feel free to post your intent here and let your friends know about this, but posting here does not equal emailing me with your email address. I need that to send you the invite. Welcome and can't wait to see you all over in the group. Link to comment

+Ble68 Posted September 12, 2007 Share Posted September 12, 2007 Is there goin to be anything different about this jelly from the firdt two such as size? Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 Size will remain the same for this run. The front die will change as has each time. The icon will change as well. The biggest change is the people in the group and their imagination. Some of these flavors are way cool already. I am hoping to make this the largest minting yet since it is the last one till who knows when. Link to comment

+pghlooking Posted September 12, 2007 Author Share Posted September 12, 2007 Please sign me up for version 3!! I think I already asked on a post about the last version but just in case...count me in!! DrJeepStr If you haven't already, you must email me. In order to send the invite I need your email addy, and that is not always available here, so I won't be trying to search it out. It is much easier to just have anyone interested in joining, to take the first step and send and email to me just saying I want to join. Not sure if you did already but for anyone else wanting to join, it's cool to post here, but follow with the email to ensure you don't miss out on the greatest coin group ever formed in the free world.

+Steinwälzer Posted September 13, 2007 Share Posted September 13, 2007 OK, e-mail sent. I have to stop buying coins immediately to afford this, but I can still trade, and I will get my own jellies Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 (edited) Question: How many have signed up (as of right now)? In other words, how many 'Jellies might one need to order in order to be able to trade for one of each and end up with a whole set? CF30 Edited September 15, 2007 by Crowesfeat30 Link to comment

CF30 I believe if I am reading this correctly 49 members with 64 different flavored beans. Whole lotta beans! Yeah - and the total number of coins being minted is currently well over 1800! And thats with a few of us not having put out numbers into the database yet, so I'm picking by the time a few later comers sign up and we all get out numbers in and ironed out the total minting will be for well over 2000 coins... I only see a couple of people in there at the moment who has a chance of getting one of each from version 3! Link to comment
Son of Cyclops Posted September 16, 2007 Share Posted September 16, 2007 Does the price go down with more coins or is the price always $5.35 each? Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted September 16, 2007 Author Share Posted September 16, 2007 Does the price go down with more coins or is the price always $5.35 each? No, yes. The group will be closing tonight to finialize everything. At that point this thread and invites will cease. Thanks to all who have emailed and joined already. Link to comment

I wonder if there is a place that we can live in peace with our coins when our spouses find out how many we all have. Link to comment
+Cheesy pigs Posted September 18, 2007 Share Posted September 18, 2007 (edited) Oh the joy of having a spouse who also collects coins!
