+dark_onyx1982 Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Hi, I am announcing a new coin from a design I have been working on for several months. This coin is dedicated to all the geodogs out there. This coin is near and dear to me as I love bringing my geodogs along with me on my caching adventures.Samples have been ordered and we are waiting on those to finalize our decision on the finishes. These will be available for sale at Coins & Pins. The colors are a mixture of hard enamel and translucent with texturing underneath the enamel. I welcome your thoughts. PS - I have included a small cut out for those who are interested in attaching this to your dogs collar. Quote Link to comment

+wigoweb Posted July 8, 2008 Share Posted July 8, 2008 Very nice coin. We have our own personal coin with a cachehound theme. Wigoweb's Personal #1 We aren't selling any coins, but we do like to trade for other personal coins with a dog theme. Take a look at our coin using the link above, and let us know if you would like to trade. There are two images on our coin page; be sure to look at both of them. We also occasionally put out these coins at FTF prizes in our caches. Good luck with your new coin. Quote Link to comment
+dark_onyx1982 Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 I should have a few of these for trades after the presales are over. I also plan on having handful of AE coins made. I will have more answers after I see the samples from the mint. Quote Link to comment
+surteb Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I agree with everyone who said this is cute! I love it! One thing: On the back, "geocachers" should be "geocacher's" I also think there already is a coin called "Gone to the Dogs" so you might want to look into that, just so there isn't any "coinfusion" in the future.

I realize the grammar on the back may be incorrect, but it looks better with the design, more streamlined. There are several geodog theme coins out there. I do not think there will be any confusion between this one and the others, at least i hope not. Quote Link to comment

I just think it would get confusing if they both have the same name in the GCCollection gallery. Still love the design, though, no matter what you call it. Quote Link to comment

Yeah surteb is correct, there is already a coin called "Gone to the Dogs" so there will probably be confusion in the name, is there anything else you can call it? Quote Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 I just have to add my "AWWWWW" to the list here! This is a very cute coin. Where & when might they be sold (presold)? CF30 Quote Link to comment
+dark_onyx1982 Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 "A Geocachers Best Friend" sounds good to me. I have received several emails about the grammatical error. I am unsure if the die has already been produced, if so it will stay as it is. If they can chance it I will have them do so. These will be pre-sold through coinsandpins.com. I do not yet have an exact date, but I would predict somewhere in the next 4-5 weeks, as it will take 3-4 weeks to get the samples in from the mint. We will use those to decide the metal finishes. Also, I will have an AE with a unique finish and some possible color changes. Quote Link to comment
