+Boom!pa Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 We are happy to announce that we have a new coin this year! Our TRACKABLE square coin is a question mark one side/brick other side geocoin with some mariobros flavoring all over! We will have two platings; gold and chrome with the chrome being of limited production (only just over 15% of the order) We are taking preorders and expect to have the coin within the next 3 weeks. From selling our coin last year, we anticipate that this years coin will sellout quickly (especially now that it has a tracking #!) For info or ordering contact me at boomerangpapa@hotmail.com and type 2008 mariobros brick coin in the subject line! Quote Link to comment

+PengoFamily Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Here are the pics: Here is what I found out on pricing.... "We are selling the coins for $10 each plus shipping (I think the coins cost $2 for shipping of 1 coin, $2.50 for shipping of 2-3 coins as they are based on weight and I ship all my coins in bubble wrap envelopes) Currently we are not trading coins."

TMA DAMMIT...I just realized that I made an error! while talking to a friend here about the coin I mentioned it was 2" but he informed me that measuring diagnal is not the true size of the coin! the coin is technically 1.5 inches...sorry for the error and if anyone that has bought one wants to change their mind I understnad and will refund their money. sorry for my major mess up!

+WRITE SHOP ROBERT Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 (edited) Did you say anything about "icon"? Nope..no icon for this coin as i was told Groundspeak needs 1000 coins to be made for a personal icon!? This run is much more limited then that! I don't know who told you that, maybe the coin maker? Take a look at the current CoinTracking Policy thread (Pinned) it states that you can get an icon with 250 coins This policy was updated in February of this year. Custom Coin Icons:1. Available for Geocaching organizations, associations, commercial coin groups and Personal Coins. 2. The cost for a custom icon to be associated with your coins is a one time fee of $150. The icon design will need to be supplied to us in GIF format (non-animated) in the following pixel sizes: 16x16 and 32x32 3. All icon submissions must be the property of the owner or used with the owners permission. 4. 250 code minimum order. http://forums.Groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?showtopic=116641 Edited June 6, 2008 by WRITE SHOP ROBERT Quote Link to comment
