+avroair Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 (edited) Wanted to give people a sneak peek of my Four Musketeers coin, samples just came back from the mint. I designed it 9 months ago with the intention of using it as an event coin. The event never happened so decided to brush off the cobwebs and go ahead and make it. Stats: Trackable, (tracking number on side) Icon: yes 1.75" diameter 3.5mm thick Mint run: no idea For sale or trade only: not sure Will come in velvet bag I wanted to include three traits of geocaching: Porthos: Strength to carry on Athos: Never give up the hunt Aramis: Think before you search Currently thinking about 3 eiditons: Royalist blue (picture), AS, blue gem Cardinal red, AS, red gem Cavalier green, AS, green gem Hope you like them.

+pghlooking Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Currently thinking about 3 eiditons: Royalist blue (picture), AS, blue gem Cardinal red, AG, red gem Cavalier green, AC, green gem Which is going to be the SE, the LE, and of course the AE? Quote
+Dolfy Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Oooohhhh!!! I like it!! Blue would have to be a definite! Quote

+Landsharkz Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Wow, we'd like a set of those! Awesome work! Will the velvet bags match the coin colour inside? Quote
+Cheesy pigs Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 That's just gorgeous!!! I'm glad you are going ahead with it I'll put my hand up for a trade though, if that's the direction you take....although I will also have to figure out what to trade with Quote
+avroair Posted February 24, 2008 Author Posted February 24, 2008 awwww, you just changed it! please do the Ant Copper! Well, I need to make copper samples first. The mint didn't give me the right combinations. All up in the air right now, copper can be tricky. Quote
+LadeBear68 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Are you sure this is a sneak peek thread? It seems more like a teaser, here's my new coin, don't know when it will be in and if I will sell it but everyone can drool over it for months. Quote
+Nochipra Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Ooooohhhhhh! Puuuurrrrdy! Gotta get some! These will be hot! Quote

+prntr1 Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I believe the AE should be purple I mean there are FOUR musketeers, right? I heard the fourth was stuck in Room 266 Quote
+avroair Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 Will the velvet bags match the coin colour inside? I hope so. ~ yes they should do. Quote
+avroair Posted February 25, 2008 Author Posted February 25, 2008 I believe the AE should be purple I mean there are FOUR musketeers, right? Hey! Let's not get ahead of ourselves and give too much away! Quote
+pghlooking Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I believe the AE should be purple I mean there are FOUR musketeers, right? A nice rich purple translucent would be very appropriate for the AE. I like. Quote
