+tsunrisebey Posted February 28, 2009 Author Share Posted February 28, 2009 Thanks again for the support I added a couple additional photos that the factory sent me. The BN version will be minted but the other 2 were 'tester' versions for my purposes and I'll be working with some different combos over the weekend on these babies Earth Turtle Oceania Geocoins Quote Link to comment
dimkasmir Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 So will you only be doing the gold and bn? Cause the silver copper really look great! Quote Link to comment
+hollora Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 The different colors and metals definitely give different dimensions to the designs and creatures on the coins. I, personally, feel some stand out clearer with some of the colors and metals than others. That is a nicely done concept and makes me want far more than I should purchase. Manybe different flavors for my "girls". Thanks for another great design Tsun! Quote Link to comment
+steel city babes Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) Very Nice, I like the color scheme on the 2nd from the bottom tester version... The gold metal makes the colors/texture stand/jump out on the first but I still like the BN better... for some unknown reason and the copper is sharp....copper is quickly becoming my second favorite metal on coins.... As others have said nicely done... You getting any done in black and gold..... Edited February 28, 2009 by steel city babes Quote Link to comment
+cainrcc Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 Very nice looking Turtles hope that I can grab a few of them when the sale starts Quote Link to comment
+opalsns Posted February 28, 2009 Share Posted February 28, 2009 (edited) OMG, I really like the Black Nickel and That Copper Finish ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!! I hope I get a chance on the Black Nickel and I hope the Copper becomes available and my computer cooperates during the sale. Great Job The lump of coal was a success. How about a ... ......... LUMP OF SUGAR set , Polished Nickel With White Glitter Enamel, how cool would that look! Opalsns Edited February 28, 2009 by opalsns Quote Link to comment

+0R0B0RUS Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 Awesome as always Tsun! Love the idea of linking coins. No doubt, this will be 2009's hottest coin set. Just hope I can afford a few! Quote Link to comment
+ECplus3 Posted March 2, 2009 Share Posted March 2, 2009 (edited) Thanks Tsun! Other than my Delft Blauw coins, my wife has always reacted with polite disinterest whenever I show her a new coin. Even my own designs don't get much of a reaction! I think she views my hobby as mostly harmless -- at least I'm not spending money on role playing games anymore! But when I showed her the Earth Turtle Oceania pics she said, "I want one! Can you get me one?" I think she's coming over to the Dark Side. So, again, thanks Tsun! Maybe some of her scrapbooking money will soon become coin money for a joint collection. PS: I love the gold and the silver finishes! Edited March 2, 2009 by E&Cplus3 Quote Link to comment

+tsunrisebey Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 Thanks and the BN/Gold tends to be what I go with for tsun versions I would imagine you'll see that show up down the road but not on the initial minting. I'm trying to decide what to order for the 1st go round. This design will be open for awhile (I'll be bringing some to GCF). I'll let ya know for sure as I figure it out Quote Link to comment

+tsunrisebey Posted March 8, 2009 Author Share Posted March 8, 2009 (edited) LOVE that Green on copper. Thanks I have to admit I didn't care for it when I saw the mint pics but when I got it in hand, I liked it alot more. It's not a coin that photographs well but it looks sharp in hand if you're an antique copper fan. Edited March 8, 2009 by tsunrisebey Quote Link to comment
