CinemaBoxers Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 (edited) Geocoin Design proudly presents the Carousel Horse Geocoin Don't miss the new "Carousel Horse" geocoin available at GeocoinDesign.com in 3 regular editions, and 1 Limited Edition. Gold Version Silver version Copper Version LE Satin Gold w/Glitter Don't miss out on the Carousel Horse Geocoins! I designed these some time ago, and kept reworking them, and reworking them... After sitting on them a bit, I decided I couldn't wait any longer. My Mom and daughter talked me into producing them myself - as I kept retouching them to get them JUST RIGHT. Done in an authentic style, these die cut coins feature a small loop for hanging (The Brass Ring!) And, each horse has a rhinestone at the bottom - colors vary for each horse. Translucent and Regular Imitation Hard enamel on each coin. They are on their way to our shop, and should be in our store by Monday, February 18th (We will post on the Groundspeak forums when they arrive, and the time the sale will begin!) These will be available at our Webstore this week. If the coin arrives on time - the sale will begin at approx 7PM CST Monday February 18th. Coin specifications: 1.75" Die cut coin Translucent Enamels Custom Icons The initial run consists of 300 coins with an entire run of up to 750 total possible. The initial minting breakdowns are as follows: 90 Polished Copper 90 Polished Nickel 90 Polished Gold 30 LE Satin Gold with Glitter The regular edition coins will be priced at $10.00 USD The LE will NOT be reminted. We MAY remint the original colors, or, might add a new color combination. Designed and minted by GeocoinDesign Edited March 4, 2008 by Flying Spaghetti Monster Quote Link to comment

+mousekakat Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Paula, those are just GORGEOUS! And.. for once, I've got a little bitty bit of money that I can buy one with, YAY! Now, to reveal a little secret to everyone and why I think those are SO awesome... when I was 18 I could see the carnival from the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo from the office building I worked at... The lights at night just captivated me, and my best friend who worked with me went with me one day and I was hooked. A month later I had packed up all my posessions and put them into storage, quit my job, and.... I ran away and joined the carnival! I travelled with a carnival for more than 2 years and loved it! If I had a camper I'd go back and do it again now, I loved the travelling, the waking up in a new city every couple of weeks, seeing new things, and the whole she-bang! I really did love it! SO, that is why love that little carousel horse coin so much and why it's going to be such a special addition to my collection! Naomi .... former Carnie! Quote Link to comment
+mousekakat Posted February 15, 2008 Share Posted February 15, 2008 Jim and Paula, Is there any way possible that I can reserve a couple of these? You're going to be opening them for sale in the middle of the night here and there's just no way that I can be up at 2 am to order them, and they are just SO gorgeous that I know they are going to do a complete sellout! Purdy Please? Naomi Quote Link to comment

CinemaBoxers Posted February 15, 2008 Author Share Posted February 15, 2008 Thanks everyone! I actually have the coins IN HAND NOW - amazingly - they showed up today! The sale will be Monday when listed, and we will post a direct link when sales begin. These look so much larger in person than I expected - and they are a nice hefty coin! IM VERY happy with these - as usual, the pics just don't do them justice - lots of small detail. ~P Quote Link to comment
