+intolerable Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 I love the black against the red. Looks great! Quote
+Map Monkey Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Looks like my attempt at drawing a christmas tree. mm Quote
+lelle1987 Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 (edited) Snyggt!! Isn't it "pent!!" in Norwegian? Edit: Or even "Kjempeflott!!"... However I got to agree, very nice coin indeed! Edited December 18, 2007 by lelle1987 Quote
+mousekakat Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Snyggt!! Isn't it "pent!!" in Norwegian? :-p However I got to agree, very nice coin indeed! Don't confuse me, Lelle, lol! I just barely have a grasp on my Swedish, hehehe! Naomi Quote
SoCalGeocoins Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Cool coin, when are these going on sale and how much will they be? Quote
+ScoutingWV Posted December 18, 2007 Posted December 18, 2007 Clean, simple design and nice colors. Nicely done. Congrats on the new coin! Quote
+dflye Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 I love it! Having plenty of ancestral Norwegian blood coursing through my veins, I must know how I can acquire one of these great looking coins! Quote
+Ladybug Kids Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Min fars familien er fra Vikhamar (Malvik), men jeg er interessert i disse myntene. I 1987 red jeg linjen fra Oslo til Bergen. Telemark er meget vakker. Quote
+fam.bergum Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Nice Coin Where can I place an order? Artig at det dukker opp flere norske mynter. Quote
+fairyhoney Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 WOW, That is a great looking coin! Quote
+SwedenHawk Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 nice coin... I need two of these... Do you accept trades? Quote
+creacher Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Very nice coin, great job on the design! Quote
+Smort78 Posted December 19, 2007 Author Posted December 19, 2007 Thanks for all the nice comments I'm not sure if the coin will be sold, have to talk to the group and ask if they are ok with it. It would have have been fun to sell some coins so we could get an own icon for the coin. The group is buying 100 coins together and I will make some coins in an other finish for myself (I have something hidden under the red enamel, but want to see the sample coins in hand before I show the pictures), so I must sell ~130 coins to get a icon - not sure if that's possible... Coin size is 1,5 / 3mm Quote
lordxtra Posted December 19, 2007 Posted December 19, 2007 Hi pls PM me details if we can aquire some for a pending competition here in Spain - I would also be really interested to aquire a couple for my collection. Love the design......... Quote
+Lazer Posted December 22, 2007 Posted December 22, 2007 Beautiful coin and where and when can we get our hands on these? Quote

Yeah, but I figured it would be faster and cheaper to order them from Norway since I live in Sweden. And I'm still sure it would be faster, but after I found the Norwegian page, it seems to be more expensive that way... Quote
+Smort78 Posted March 12, 2008 Author Posted March 12, 2008 Sorry , forgot to post that link. Here's the link to the black nickel version: Link Quote
+sabeltann31 Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 (edited) We still have Gold and Black Nickel version in stock. We ship world wide for these coins. Take a look at: http://www.geowebshop.no/index.php?page=sh...t&Itemid=27 Edited March 15, 2008 by sabeltann31 Quote
