+AtwellFamily Posted June 2, 2008 Author Share Posted June 2, 2008 (edited) Thought there was a 2008 Colorado coin already done...... That was the coin for the Geocaching Colorado organization specifically. I don't think they were even available outside of events or knowing someone to buy one. It had the GCCO logo on one side.

YemonYime Posted June 2, 2008 Share Posted June 2, 2008 I want one in Antique Gold, but I'm Mr. Picky with geocoins nowadays, so I went ahead and "plated" one of your photos because I'm just too stinkin' curious as to what it looks like: DISCLAIMER: This is a photoshopped guess at what it might look at in Antique Gold.

Just judging from Yimes photoshopped ant gold, I bet the ant. copper is lovely. CF30 I really haven't put a list together.

YemonYime Posted June 3, 2008 Share Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) Sorry about the delay, but I was a little busy watching one of the greatest games in Stanley Cup Finals history. Anyhoo, I went ahead and mocked up the backside of the coin in Ant. Gold. I replaced the root file on my server, so just refresh your pages and both sides will appear in the above posts. The snow's now a lovely, and more edible white, and there's no sign of huskies or reindeer to dirty it up again. Okay, back to #46 on my list of 227 things to do. *shiver* Yime Edited June 3, 2008 by YemonYime Quote Link to comment
