Yeah, I saw the preliminary work for this coin on the club site and was very intrigued. This is one (more) coin I'd love to add to my collection. :D

 

CF30

 

You and me both. One very cool coin

 

Yep Pewter and it is rock solid and 3D. The Skull and wings extend quite a ways out from the enamel. Since it is thick and the sides are like three circular saw blades stacked on each other the look is amazing. I see it as very durable and if someone wanted to put it out is would hold up nicely. I just can't imagine someone putting one like this in the wild.

 

-HHH :D

-HHH :lol:

 

Call me a sadist, but I have my drill all primed to maim one of these bad boys and set it loose as soon as they arrive! :P

 

OMG, save the coin, save the coin! If you are so dead set on losing one of them, lol, just send it to me, I'll at least give it a good home! :D:laughing::laughing:

 

Absolutely awesome job here!

I received some of these coins in the mail today (thanks to my trader person :laughing:). A couple observations about the coin :P

 

1. I finally know what the enamel fill is now that I have them in hand :blink:

 

2. Nice hefty weight, I like that.

 

3. Excellent 3D artwork

 

4. That 3D edging is so crisp and clean that it totally kicks some serious bass.

 

Very, very nice Chris! These would make some nice conchos for Harley cachers :lol::D

Now if I can only manage to get one of those antique bronze SEs. :laughing:

 

There's one on Ebay already :mad:

I don't think they sold the LE's in the Member's Only Store yet. If they did, they went quick, I didn't see them. And you'd see alot of them out here looking for trades.

 

:(

 

They didn't sell yet. Some lucky soul got one early as a gift :P

Nope... They definitely haven't been offered in the Member's Only Store yet... I'm waiting too. :P

The designer, fox-and-the-hound, has posted a picture of one on this thread.

 

Edited to add: A gift... Lucky! :mad:

WOW!! I see the 200 S.E.'s that were minted are SOLD OUT!! Will you be minting any more?

 

No remints on Special Editions. That's just not fair . . .

 

Why not? It's not a "Limited Edition" or is SE the same as LE?. I'm not worried, I got mine already I was just wondering?

 

I posted the answer in another thread. Store policy. Members perks to keep coin values high. p.s. I am not an employee, nor a spokesperson for The Geocoin Club, LLC. :laughing:

Does anyone know what finishes this coin comes in, and what the minting #'s of each finish are? thanks

 

Their website lists the Regular Edition as Pewter and the Special Edition as Antique Gold. Pewter minting numbers shouldn't be available, but next month club members will get a newsletter with how many Antique Gold were minted.

It helps if I read the newsletter for each month before posting. I already got Januarys newsletter :D The Dec. 08 Antique Gold was minted at 200.

I know I've posted somewhere it was antique bronze. In all reality, when I say bronze or gold, and I'm referring to an antique coin, it's mostly just a "color generalization". I think it's very hard to say whether the plating metal was bronze or gold by visual cues alone.

 

I would think it's a commonly made mistake or generalization. That's why I said "their website says antique gold". I thought it was antique bronze myself.
