+derschlings Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 if this is the one you're talking about, it looks like it's still available HERE Quote Link to comment
+Mauison Posted June 14, 2008 Share Posted June 14, 2008 if this is the one you're talking about, it looks like it's still available HERE I'm not sure if that's a trackable geocoin. It's listed under the BC Collectibles section, not under the geocoin section. Quote Link to comment
+derschlings Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Mauison, you're right about it not being a geocoin. But it is still way cool! I thought all the original geocoins (BC with the Killer Whale) were silver, not gold. Perhaps some were minted in gold? Quote Link to comment
+The-Wolf-Pack Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 I think it was the 2007 British Columbia was minted in Gold and Antique Silver There were only 35 minted in Gold NOT the 2006 Correct me if I am wrong Helen? Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 Almost positive there was no gold version made (and positive none were sold) so I'm afraid your out of luck. Quote Link to comment
+Landsharkz Posted June 15, 2008 Share Posted June 15, 2008 2006 - Trackables and 'collectibles' in antique silver only. 2007 - Trackables and 'collectibles' in antique silver. Some antique gold in both versions for private use. I think there were 50 trackables. This coin's focus was to raise awareness of the plight of the Kinsol Trestle. We gave the gold coins away to the general public and dignitaries at the media event at the trestle, we've recognized ordinary people who were working hard to make a difference, and we have given them away to some special cachers during the past year. You could call them APPLE's I guess. I rather doubt you'd see them for sale. 2008 - Trackables and 'collectibles' in antique silver. Some trackables in gold again for our own use. For new forum readers, APPLE is our Artist and Producer Personal Limited Edition. We design and produce the coin and these are ours to do with as we wish. Quote Link to comment

I wish my kids agreed that easily! If you mean the image on the home page at the very bottom... it's just the photo, light, camera settings... etc. I'll tell the in-house photographer that he's misleading folks Quote Link to comment
WhistlerGeo Posted June 18, 2008 Share Posted June 18, 2008 Just received the 2006 BC geocoin in the mail and just saw the 2008 BC geocoin posted at landsharkz! Can't wait to order it on my next purchase. Thanks for the prompt shipment Helen. Quote Link to comment
