+Rockin Roddy Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Do you have a trade list? I would love one of these, but have very little traders at this time. So maybe if I knew what to look for, I could pick up something you'd trade for?? Quote

+Sunrayers Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 Awesome looking Coin! Do you have a trading list posted anywhere? I'd sure like to see if I have anything that would "fit the bill" for a trade! Quote
+Dorsetgal & GeoDog Posted February 20, 2008 Posted February 20, 2008 They look great, any idea when they will be on sale? Quote
+Lazer Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 I hope to get at least one of these when they go on sale! Quote
+SUp3rFM & Cruella Posted February 21, 2008 Posted February 21, 2008 Sorry to inform that they won't go for sale. They are all pre-sold to Portuguese geocachers. I'm guessing some will do trades. PLnauta is gathering your interest. I'm sure he'll pass by the information to other portuguese cachers that will have some extra. And yes, sure is a nice coin! Quote
+Wij Drie Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I'm interested to. Any trade? tot cache, team Wij Drie Quote
+OshnDoc Posted February 22, 2008 Posted February 22, 2008 I would love to trade for one of these, if possible. Thanks Quote
+E.caballus Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Hi Paulo, Could you let us know the significance of the pictures? I think I see the Portugal coat of arms. What is the building and significance of the flowers? Thanks. Tom Quote
+Dr. Whoever Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Paulo, Put me in for 2 or 3 for trading please. Quote
+geo_taz Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Hi Paulo, I am interested in a trade for this nice coin ... Geo_Taz Quote
+PLnauta Posted February 23, 2008 Author Posted February 23, 2008 Wow thats a great reception for this regional geocoin. I've done allready a list fot rades, and will make a link in the portuguese forum to here. I think it will be possible to everyone intersted to get one. Paulo Quote
+The Klever Boys Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 I'd certainly be interested in trading for one. I have 450+ coins available via the link below. Thanks, Russ Quote
+ftomar Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Hello i have a few off this coins to trade ...please send me what you have to trade... Quote
+SUp3rFM & Cruella Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Hi Paulo, Could you let us know the significance of the pictures? I think I see the Portugal coat of arms. What is the building and significance of the flowers? Thanks. Tom Face: You're absolutely right, at the center it's the Portuguese Coat of Arms, as it is on our Flag. Around, there are six Almond Blossoms. The Almond tree is very common in the region of Algarve. It's part of typical landscape. It's very well represented in the coin. February is the month of the Almond Blossoms, check more info here: www.visitalgarve.pt Back: In white, it's a typical chimney of the houses in Algarve, as you can read here. The district of Algarve is represented in green. That's its shape. And in the background, yellow round shaped, it's the Sun that shines almost all year round. The outcome of the coin is very, very good. Kudos to Billy of VespaFriendsAlgarve for the all concept and original idea. Kudos to Rui Almeida, from Kelux for the excellent artwork. We're proud of this coin and proud of how Algarve is so well represented in geocaching. Defintely, a must visit region in Portugal. Quote
+E.caballus Posted February 23, 2008 Posted February 23, 2008 Thank you for the information regarding the coin design. Hope to visit the region someday! Quote
+acasim Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Hi, As Paulo said, there will probably be enough coins around for trading and keep everybody happy I will have a few, so let me know if I can help you. Cheers, Antonio Quote
+PLnauta Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 I opened the Pandora's box, its so nice to see other portuguese cachers and geocoin collectors around. By the way, thats a good theme for a geocoin, something like "The Pandora's cache Geocoin, if you go for it be prepared for the addiction!" Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Hi, As Paulo said, there will probably be enough coins around for trading and keep everybody happy I will have a few, so let me know if I can help you. Cheers, Antonio Antonio, your icon would make a good looking coin. Quote

Cheers, Antonio Antonio, your icon would make a good looking coin. Seem´s like somebody wants a new coin to be produced . Kidding, but, i agree. It would make a nice coin. Acasim, that´s a new logo isn´t it? I believe that´s the first time i see it. Anyway, i will have some of these coins available for trades later on as well as some Spanish geocoins and some Portugal 2007 geocoins. I have already some trades set up with 2 or 3 geocachers (Serge, don´t go out and buy any of these coins without talking to me first but there will plenty available for trades. Regards Alberto Quote

+PLnauta Posted April 5, 2008 Author Posted April 5, 2008 Hello There's more on Europe than VAT and IVa and taxes and customs, and ... Now there is a new geocoin. I finally receive mine and i'm ready to send them to those I agree in trades. I ask these fellow geocoin collectors to send me their address: Droo, Rockin Roddy (i know that if i search through old mail i should find your address ), MsTeamPooh, BlueMotmot and ChrisGun. Don't worry on what to trade, made a suggestion! Paulo Quote
+Brave Defender Posted April 6, 2008 Posted April 6, 2008 Paulo I would also like to trade for one of these coins if you have any left! Jeff Quote
