Interest in a Horse-theme Geocoin?

[+E.caballus]

Hello,

 

We're fairly new to geocaching and geocoins but are quite hooked on both We were looking for some geocoins with horses and have only seen 3 so far: "Run for the Roses," the "Pathfinders-All Nations," and a horse with a cart one from Europe(?). If we mint one with a running and/or rearing horse, would folks be interested in buying it?

 

Thanks for any guidance.

I love horses!

 

My personal coin from last year had horses on it, and so will my next one! I think I'll do that one in early 08.

I would definately be interested. I used to barrel race and boy I miss it!

Horses also make good "geo-mobiles"!

Hi MustangJoni,

 

Do you plan on selling your next horse coin? If yes, I may just buy yours

I'd definitely be interested.... My caching name, ChanceRider, comes from my youngest horse, Chance.

 

I also have an idea for a horse themed coin, but need to find someone to polish off my design as I have absolutely NO artistic or drawing program abilities .

Most likely, our daughter would HAVE to have one

If you can, please go for it!; If one could make a shaped coin - the better

I have the True Texas Cowboy coin and love it... especially since it's a memorial coin. But I've never seen the 3rd one pictured... do you have any info on it?

If you do and the coin looks great probably I will buy some.

I had the same idea as you... but i'm afraid for the work its will take and i don't have any(at the moment)

 

Something like this?

 

(found on the internet)

Thanks for your comments & the info regarding existing/upcoming coins. This is my first forum topic & I can't figure out how to attach a figure to show you what I'm thinking of minting - help?

This is the FlyinV coin from 2005 I believe. Its on Cointracking.com, and there are several listed as available for trades.

Thanks for the info... I really like the way the horse is done in that coin. Time to go scouting around on Cointracking...

[+E.caballus]

Thanks for the info on the existing coins. I've roamed cointracking :-)

 

I'm working on getting some draft artwork posted but having user-problems with uploading the image :-(

[+E.caballus]

I think most folks already know, but just in case not, I managed to get the image posted on a new thread with a bit more info about the coin:

I like horses too, but I would like your design more if it was a personal coin. As a generic coin, I probably would not buy it.

 

On a side note, Ilonka1980, I absolutely love your horse coin idea and that one I would buy in a second. You should shop that with a vendor and let them do a split with you. That's a fantastic design.

It isn't mine. I don't know who made this.. just found it on the internet.

Well... you could certainly do something inspired by it. Could be interesting if the art was done very well.

I agree that that image shouldn't be used for a coin, but it wouldn't be hard to come up with something 'inspired by' and actually alot better.

 

I think the horse nuts out there should really enjoy the Carousel Horse thats in the works - its a really lovely design. Im making a few minor additions to it, and then it should be upcoming VERY soon. I've done equine art for years - and anything horse related is definitely something I love to work on, and collect!!!!
