+wsgaskins Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 However, these coins are absolutely GORGEOUS in hand, and even the photos that Paula did do not come close to the real deal. I've got a deal for you! Send me a set of coins and I'll get beautiful photos of them for you -- free of charge! Quote

I've got a deal for you! Send me a set of coins and I'll get beautiful photos of them for you -- free of charge! No way! I have a better deal...if they send me a set of coins, I'll show them how beautiful they will be housed in a purty coin album...no charge! Just playin...I can't wait for these to go on sale. [ParisHilton] They're hot... [/ParisHilton] :) Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 21, 2008 Author Posted April 21, 2008 New pics as promised!!! These arrived, and look better than we ever expected. The detail UNDER the enamel is absolutely incredible. They LOOK like Jewelery. (I hope 0r0b0rus is ready to do some Claddagh wire-wraps - because I know Im going to want one at least!!) However.. the mint made a mistake. GASP - NO WAY you all say! NOT on the coin - it turned out perfect. BUT they shipped them all in little bubble wrap instead of PVC flips. We have an email out to them already to get flips sent to us for these, but the sale will go as scheduled. If they are overnighting the flips, we will wait to ship when the flips arrive. If there will be a delay, we will figure that out and get them to our customers. (It might mean shipping them with your next order, but you WILL get your coin flips!) Remember folks - these go on sale TONIGHT at 6PM EDT! I will post the link when the sale begins! Just wanted to bump the new photos for those viewing the last page. We are getting the store ready as I type - and will be going live in about 55 minutes or so! I just can't believe how pretty these are in person. Every now and then, the mints hit a home run with a combination of correct execution, and FINE workmanship. These really look like Jewelry - they are incredible in person. I cant wait till people start getting them in the mail after they ship! ~P Quote
+ThePetersTrio Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 I'm always worried I'm going to refresh the wrong page. I'm at the page where the "coming soon!" announcement is. I hope that's right. For some reason a little voice in my head is saying - "maybe it's going to be on the 'new coin' page"... Quote

+hollora Posted April 21, 2008 Posted April 21, 2008 Woot - almost forgot but made it in time. Super! Quote
+ArtieD Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Any chance of different metal/enamel combinations in the remint? Quote
+Team FIREBOY Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Jodi jumps for joy..... I got my BLUE! Quote
+Geocaching-Geckos Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 (edited) Any chance of different metal/enamel combinations in the remint? One side of me says, "Yes! Yes!" and the other side says, "No! No!". If they come out with different combos then I'm going to just have to buy all the remint versions! Edited April 22, 2008 by Geocaching-Geckos Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 Well... there are two Im kicking around. A Black Nickel with teal, and a polished gold with Pink (For my AE). Likely a Antique Silver version possibly - we'll see!! Quote
+keewee Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Got me a couple of these earlier in the day Quote

Likely a Antique Silver version possibly - we'll see!! Polished gold an pink would be very nice...and black nickel and teal? I think that's a great combo, too! Quote

+JT3Halls Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 Well, Internet was down on this side of the water for a few hours and in those few hours, I guess all of the blue and red Claddagh geocoins were taken as only purple is left. Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 22, 2008 Author Posted April 22, 2008 Well, Internet was down on this side of the water for a few hours and in those few hours, I guess all of the blue and red Claddagh geocoins were taken as only purple is left. You know... and the odd thing is, if the coin sale was in person rather than online - I think the purple would have been one of the first to sell out. The purple is Incredibly deep, yet you can see all the detail underneath. ~P Quote
+gardengorilla Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 I'm glad the purple were left, I just bought one and I think they are beautiful. Quote
TheNumber1Bop Posted April 22, 2008 Posted April 22, 2008 I don't think the pictures do justice to the purple. I was surprised at the difference seeing it in person. It's very striking. Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 23, 2008 Author Posted April 23, 2008 SOLD out! Thanks for all of your support. We may work out a few new versions for those who missed the coin - we got some emails today from those who missed it. But - we'll keep it to one or two new ones. Will share information when we have it on the remint. Quote
+Degai Posted April 23, 2008 Posted April 23, 2008 I got mine today. The purple one was my first choice. Beautiful work as always, Paula. Quote
+Geocaching-Geckos Posted April 24, 2008 Posted April 24, 2008 Well... there are two Im kicking around. A Black Nickel with teal, and a polished gold with Pink (For my AE). Likely a Antique Silver version possibly - we'll see!! I retract what I said previously about having to puchase the whole set, I'll definitely draw the line when it comes to buying a polished gold with Pink geocoin. Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 25, 2008 Author Posted April 25, 2008 I retract what I said previously about having to puchase the whole set, I'll definitely draw the line when it comes to buying a polished gold with Pink geocoin. Those AE's wont be for sale anyways... just for trades. But... Im working on two new versions right now... will post about them soon. Quote

OK, I retract what I said about retracting what I previously said about not purchasing the entire set! Unless you should include the color pink anywhere on the new coins. Then I reserve the exclusive right to reinstate my previous statement.... Quote
+Cushie Butterfield Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 I bought a green and purple and have to say I wasn't sure about the purple version but it is my son's house colour at school so i bought it for him. I'm looking forward to seeing them both now Quote
+TarheelTracker Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I got my coins in the mail today and they are absolutely beautiful. I was only able to get the purple and the blue versions, but they are stunning. These are some of the best looking Geocoins that I have obtained in a while!!! I'll have to keep my eyes open for the 2 other coins that I was unable to purchase. Great job! Quote
+ArtieD Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I ordered a 2-tone, blue and a purple. They arrived today. I am in love. Well done. Quote
CinemaBoxers Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 Glad everyone is liking these - they are one of our favorites!!! We will be posting info on the new versions which will be available for pre-order VERY soon! Quote
+DammitNanet Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 I love these coins. Received them today and they are a true work of art!!!!!! Quote
+GrievousAngel Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Mine--red and green--arrived today :) They are lovely. The antique gold finish on the green coins shows the detail so beautifully. Congratulations on the successful execution of your beautiful design. Quote
+fairyhoney Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Jodi jumps for joy..... I got my BLUE! I am Very happy for you, Jodi ! Quote
