New Geocoin Caching Memories

This geocoin design is something I started working on when a thread was started that there were no coins for photographers.

 

An idea popped into my head about doing a camera coin. I knew exactly what type of camera that I was going to base this coin on too. I chose an older style of camera because of the beauty of them.

 

The name of this coin is going to be 'Caching Memories' because some of the best logs that I have seen have beautiful scenic pictures to go along with it or some very humorous ones.

 

This coin is being produced by Oakcoins and will be sold on Geoswag's presale page. I do not have details yet of the price, finish, etc. I will post more information as it is available. They should be going for sale sometime in the beginning of April.

 

This is my first all metal coin. And the pics are sample ones from the mint. I hope to post some better pics once I receive my samples in hand. :huh:B) I will have a few AE available for trade as well. Hope you enjoy this one as much as I do!! B)B)

This coin gave me a KOOL idea for a cache. We have the Eastman Kodak Museum in Rochester, NY (just down the road apiece) What a sweet FTF prize for a cache placed nearby!

 

HHHHMMMMMMMM!!- guess I'll be needing a couple :huh:

OHMYOHMYOHMYOHMY!!!!!!

Photography was my first "mistress" as my dear sweetheart is so fond of calling my hobbies.

This is absolutely fantastic!

I will BEG for trade-version until my knees bleed!!!

I'm preparing a geocache to be hidden at one of Florida's original Kodak PhotoSpots (it's a little out-of-the-way place that time has reclaimed.... the sign fell down long ago... now it's just a place where teens go parking)

Still as beautiful as ever, and I simply have to place one of these babies in this cache as the FTF prize! Guess I'll have to make it a BIT more challenging!

This is a great coin Chantal!! I love it. I had a camera almost like that when I was a little boy! By now I have switched to a Nikon Digital SLR but still wish I could have kept that old camera of mine. Hope to get at least a great memory of it by getting one of these great coins. Very nice -- Congrats :huh:

Love the coin Chantal. Hope to be able to trade with you. My husband does a very good job at photography, and has taken a few wedding photo's for people. Nice first coin.

I received samples of this coin Friday in the mail. They look 10 times better in person. I hope that these photos look better than the samples photos too.
