CH Quality Coins (Like your avatar, BiT.) here they are: So explain me like I'm 4 years old. Why is an EarthCache a "Gone But Not Forgotten" cache? EarthCaching is still blooming and has a lot of time and space to progress... Quote
Neos2 Posted December 13, 2008 Posted December 13, 2008 So explain me like I'm 4 years old. Why is an EarthCache a "Gone But Not Forgotten" cache? EarthCaching is still blooming and has a lot of time and space to progress... At one time, EarthCaches were moved to the Waymarking site. Thankfully, they were moved back again to the GC side of things. Quote

ATMouse Posted December 20, 2008 Posted December 20, 2008 Sneak peak and pre orders PLEASE Great Christmas pressies???? I was hoping for this, too... I keep looking. Dang, I need a life. Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted December 21, 2008 Author Posted December 21, 2008 Sneak peak and pre orders PLEASE Great Christmas pressies???? I was hoping for this, too... I keep looking. Dang, I need a life. Do you wake up at night to check? Or just dream about it? Please Earthcache.org - we cant wait! Quote
+Cav Scout Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Maybe next year? Any further news? Quote
+PaRacers Posted December 31, 2008 Posted December 31, 2008 Maybe we need to come up with some "scientific requiremants" that would justify releasing the EarthCache geocoin like: "Please estimate the amount of pleasure generated by 45 grams of nickel coated 3d engraved coin filled with hard enamel" Quote
+Juicepig Posted January 1, 2009 Posted January 1, 2009 ...or maybe the coin can be chissled out of granite instead of metal and ceramic Quote
+danieloliveira Posted January 4, 2009 Posted January 4, 2009 ...or maybe the coin can be chissled out of granite instead of metal and ceramic THAT would really be a cool coin! Quote
+danieloliveira Posted January 8, 2009 Posted January 8, 2009 Well? What's happening here? Where's the coin? Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted January 11, 2009 Author Posted January 11, 2009 Buying requirements: 1) Can you determine the metals used in the production of this coin? 2) What minerals were they likely to have come from (look around the site to determine this and explain it in your answer)? 3) Can you estimate your height by dropping a coin and timing the fall? 4) Assuming that the coin is magnetic (could you determnine this?) - what minerals caused this? If you complete all of these and email the owner - you will qualify to find the geocoin for sale on the earthcache.org site at least it will keep us busy while waiting. Quote
+Carbon Hunter Posted January 18, 2009 Author Posted January 18, 2009 Geoaware? Any news on the progress to an Earthcoin? Looking forward to hearing/seeing/ordering Are you taking pre-orders at all? Quote
+Cav Scout Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Maybe its the geocoin company taking so long to make the coin(that is if there's actually a coin in the works) I used the company "quality coins and pins" when I was in Iraq and had a coin designed and in my hand within 3 and a half weeks. I did this when I was working 18 hour days and in a combat zone in Mosul, Iraq. Edited January 19, 2009 by Cav Scout Quote
+LadeBear68 Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 There is an EarthCache geocoin in the works at the moment...... If you have not yet done so, go see the EarthCache store (via www.earthcache.org) where you can get some other EC things as well We have recently approved the final design and hope to have coins available soon. At this stage there will be one type..sort of equivalent to the white EarthCache Masters pin. The EarthCache geocoin is on its way! Designs have been finalized and approved. So production is underway. We will announce the release on the EarthCache website. An update would be nice but given the history of the production I don't expect anything soon. Perhaps three or four more months? Quote
+Clarkbowman Posted January 19, 2009 Posted January 19, 2009 (edited) Though not an official EarthCache Coin, it is my first coin and it represents The Four Elements that shape our Earth. See this post Discover the World Coin. The coin was influenced from my love of EarthCaches Edited January 19, 2009 by Clarkbowman Quote
+Cav Scout Posted January 20, 2009 Posted January 20, 2009 Can I get one of these? Though not an official EarthCache Coin, it is my first coin and it represents The Four Elements that shape our Earth. See this post Discover the World Coin. The coin was influenced from my love of EarthCaches Quote

+danieloliveira Posted January 21, 2009 Posted January 21, 2009 While I agree that the coin is beautiful and have ordered one myself, this is becoming way off topic. Quote
+Clarkbowman Posted January 22, 2009 Posted January 22, 2009 Sorry about the short high jack, but untill we hear from Geoaware we are all on hold for the EarthCache coin. Quote

+geoaware Posted February 1, 2009 Posted February 1, 2009 I have received an email from Groundspeak that they are making some changes to their side of the design and that has been the hold up. Sometimes, when multiple partners are involved, these things happen. Both Groundspeak and EarthCache are keen to see the coin finished so you can all get one (or more). Quote
