+SecretChief Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 (edited) Just saw those coins in the coming soon section here : <indirect link removed by moderator> (scroll down a few times) and I instantly fell in love with the Quadrant and the Nocturnal Geocoin. I don't have anything to do with those coins but I wanted to share my discovery with you. Edited January 29, 2008 by Eartha Quote

bflylady Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 Oh wow, those look GREAT. I think functional geocoins are especially fun (they put the fun in functional Quote
+3BlindEyes Posted January 28, 2008 Posted January 28, 2008 that Quadrant coin looks really good! cant wait to get one of those! Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 That nocturnal coin is probably going to be too expensive I think. Quote

+The Moop Along Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Nice but I bet they'll be spendy Are you incinuating that a 3" coin with working parts and an even larger span with the attachments is going to be more than $9.99? I find that hard to believe. Quote
+geocachingdragon Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 There are a couple of really nice coins here Quote
+avroair Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 That nocturnal coin is probably going to be too expensive I think. Probably, but aren't all coins over $10.00 now? Looks like a nice coin with a nice theme though, I would be in for a couple. Quote

+AtwellFamily Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 (edited) Was goign to make my own thread to mention a design I worked on with Coins and Pins. But seeing as this is already started... Antique bronze will be for sale by Coins and Pins. After I get my coins I will have them on my site (Antigue Silver). See the matching and TRACKABLE pin Edited January 29, 2008 by Atwell Family Quote
+steel city babes Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Does anyone know if these are actually going to be presold? I know that is what the site says, but I am concerned I might not type quick enough and miss out..... or are we just going to get the e-mail that says when they are going on sale and be there or your Steel City Babes Quote

I know that is what the site says, but I am concerned I might not type quick enough and miss out..... or are we just going to get the e-mail that says when they are going on sale and be there or your Steel City Babes I was told during my conversations with Coins and Pins that these would indeed be pre-sold. I would quess that is for all of them, I was only involved in the Sextant coin and pin. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 That nocturnal coin is probably going to be too expensive I think. Probably, but aren't all coins over $10.00 now? Only if you're in Norway, Germany or the UK Looks like a nice coin with a nice theme though, I would be in for a couple. Couple hundred? Quote
+GPX Navigators Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Some really nice stuff coming. Intriguing designs for sure. The bar gets higher so goes the price. This is where one saves the coin dollars for the truly great coins. Quote
+GEO*Trailblazer 1 Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Yepper I heard about them and now the cat is out of the bag. They really work too. Functional Geocoins what a concept!! Quote

+tiki Posted January 29, 2008 Posted January 29, 2008 Holy Poop! Those are AMAZING! I am sooooooo in love with these nautical devices (I'm a huge lover of the Aubrey/Maturn books). Amazing blend of art, science, and design. Lemmie just say I'm down for a TikiCoin trade for any of the working navigation coins. When they are released I'll post again in the trade thread. wow Wow WOW! Tiki Quote
+Cach-U-Nuts Posted January 30, 2008 Posted January 30, 2008 Nice series! Very well done Coins & Pins!! Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 FYI... Everything, but the Nocturnal coin are available for presale on C&P now through 2/8. Quote
+0R0B0RUS Posted January 31, 2008 Posted January 31, 2008 Ulp! $13.49 for the quadrant! However, he non-working sextant is under $10 and is also a sweet coin! And how can you resist the kewl sextant pin?! Omigosh, I bought em all! Quote
+PLnauta Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 wow, this is a great month. After the "Great outdoors", the "I love geocoins" and a couple of others that will show up here in europe, these are absolutly brilliant. I wonder what will follow .... Quote
Son of Cyclops Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 Got one of each metal of the quadrant geocoins! Quote
+Lazer Posted February 1, 2008 Posted February 1, 2008 This is going to take care of my February geocoin budget on Feb. 1 but these are really nice coins! Quote
+steve p Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 For several days I have tried to go to the web site to see these coins, but their site will never load. Anyone know why their web site have been down for at least several days? Quote
+E.caballus Posted February 16, 2008 Posted February 16, 2008 For several days I have tried to go to the web site to see these coins, but their site will never load. Anyone know why their web site have been down for at least several days? I just tried and can't get through either. I also haven't heard from them for a couple of days regarding a coin they are doing for me. Quote
+CoinsAndPins Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Hello, We are aware of the sites being down at intermittent times and am working the issue. I do not have an estimated fix date just yet. I am sorry for the inconvenience it is causing. Thank you. Quote
+tom4props Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Hmmm... I must be very lucky or just have great timing. I haven't had any trouble with the site at all. Quote
+Sunrayers Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 Hmmm... I must be very lucky or just have great timing. I haven't had any trouble with the site at all. Guess you're LUCKY! I had the LAST Bufalo Soldier Ant.Bronze in my Vistor Cart and when I went to log-in - NUTHIN Hopefully they'll be listed on their "In Stock" coins after the release date. Quote
+n8turgrl Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 (edited) These coins really are awesome. I was able to jump in on the preorder of the Quadrant, Sextant (and pin), Time and Space and the Bluefire coin. C & P is really putting out some nice and different coins. Atwell Family I really liked your trackable coin AND pin...I love collecting pins so when I can get them trackable too I think its pretty awesome! Edited February 17, 2008 by n8turgrl Quote
+forthferalz Posted February 17, 2008 Posted February 17, 2008 I was just checking in to see if anyone wanted to trade something for one of these if i order two - then found out the postage is like over $10! for two of these so I'm just ordering my one unless some other aussies want to chime in and we see what CP can do for a group order. I should think the coins, the nocturnal particualrly might find a ready market through scinece centres and museum shops worldwide - you should send Smithsonian and the british museum etc. samples - they'd be wonderful ambassadors for geocaching!

+E.caballus Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 Looks like the Nocturnal is available for pre-sale orders now at C&P. Quote
bflylady Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 (edited) Did you see the pix for the planisphere too?! (Not for sale yet tho) http://www.compassrosegeocoin.com/planisphere.php Edited March 2, 2008 by bflylady Quote
+E.caballus Posted March 5, 2008 Posted March 5, 2008 With a set of all of these, I won't need to worry about my GPS running out of charge Quote
+E.caballus Posted March 15, 2008 Posted March 15, 2008 Just got the quadrant - it's incredible. Can't wait to see the nocturnal. Quote
