CLAMM Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I thought there was also a black nickel version. There's one shown in the picture on the compassrosegeocoin site.. Will that be sold anywhere? Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Sweet. Yime! But a bit too rich for my blood. I guess I'll have to pray for a trade. CF30 Quote Link to comment

Will that be sold anywhere? You mean this one? Black Nickel 2-Tone On the compass Rose website, it was said it would be sold on Ebay. Edited March 31, 2008 by rsfish1 Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Glad you got your own version. Ebay should generate you some nice $$ for those. Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 ...and my personal edition YimeRose: Two Tone Polished Gold/Antique Bronze Is it scratch'n'sniff? Quote Link to comment
+ThePetersTrio Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Newbie question here. Why would you have the sales of these coins on 2 separate websites? Getting charged twice for shipping/handling makes me less inclined to order all the versions of coins. At this point, I'll likely just stick with the antique silver ones that I already reserved.

+fox-and-the-hound Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 Elegant and beautiful as always! Beautiful work citrusy one Quote Link to comment
+Droo Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 I guess this qualifies for an artist's edition. But, man, that's rich!! Congrats to you for fetching such high bids. Quote Link to comment
+pghlooking Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 ...and my personal edition YimeRose: Two Tone Polished Gold/Antique Bronze Is it scratch'n'sniff? After road tripping and caching with Yime, I can assure you of one thing, you really don't want to go there. Quote Link to comment

Sorry if I gave the wrong impression that Ebay was the only place to get them. There are a couple of other ways to get your hands on one. Like so many times with the really hot coins, it takes being in the right place at the right time. Compass Rose 2-Tone 2008 Congrats Yime on a great design. This coin is awesome!!!!

Hi, Is it possible to know where is the next right place and when is the next right time to get a black nickel edition ? I do not have a clue. That's part of being in the right place at the right time. I can tell you it was not sold to me. Well except the blood he had me put on this contract and something about my soul. But when it comes to a geocoin you really want, should the price matter?!? Quote Link to comment

The soul part must have had something to do with your exceptional music talent...but aren't you really a country fan?! Quote Link to comment

+keewee Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 This years design is awesome - congratulations Dave. Would love to snare a personal edition I am also interested to know the history behind the split sales between Coins and Pins and USA Geocoins. Could someone enlighten us please... or is this a can of worms that should not be opened? Quote Link to comment

+steel city babes Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Very Nice....I thought when I opened the link and it was going to be some YY humor, not so much, spectacular coin and auction. Maybe next time I am in town I can get a peek at one ....PPPPPPPLLLLLEEEEEAAAASSSSEEE. Steel City Babes Quote Link to comment
YemonYime Posted April 6, 2008 Author Share Posted April 6, 2008 Thanks to all for the kudos! Although I will be putting a few more of these up on eBay, I'd like everyone to know that this will certainly not be an "eBay only" coin. I've been the beneficiary of many acts of kindness from fellow geocachers and geocoiners in recent times. So, although I can't make one available to everyone...everyone will have a chance to own one through either a cointest, or a random act of idiocy on my part. I've got a bunch of projects crossing my screen, so it might be a while before that happens. But I do promise that someone, somehow, will hold a YimeRose up to their nose...and enjoy the smell of "free". Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 Congrats YY!! That was a very successful auction! Yeah it did really well Yime, but I think yours may do even better 4damFam! Quote Link to comment
+Kealia Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I heard that you can squeeze one over a margarita for a little extra splash. I think these boards are going to be frought with people slamming on the F5 key for a while in hopes of getting one of these. Quote Link to comment
+MommaLogan Posted April 7, 2008 Share Posted April 7, 2008 I clicked on the link to your personal version and my 6 year old tells me that she likes it. Can I get it for her? i just smiled and told her that maybe some day I will get one Let's just hope she forgets! Quote Link to comment
