+River Cacher Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 (edited) INTRODUCING *RC FIRETRUCK* For the last several months i have been working with Oakcoins and Lori Darlin to come up with this new type of concept in Geocoins. I was working on doing a several different Geocoins with this concept and i was trying to figure out which to release first and then my Brother asked about doing a fire department fundraiser Geocoin. I told him i may have a perfect idea to make sure they sell. I have agreed to donate $2.00 per coin from these 250 coins. Donations will be made to the OVFA (Ontario Volunteer Firefighter Assocciation Fund). This part of the fund will go to help with Training in the 26 SRV (Snake River Valley) Fire Departments from Western Idaho and Eastern Oregon. The metal choice is Nickel, Black Nickel and Gold. The Gold metal will be sold in a set only except for a few that have been sold hand to hand and a few that will be auctioned off on another sight. There will be a limit of one set per person and 5 coins max per person at this time. Please contact me through my profile if you are interested in purchasing any of these TRACKABLE Geocoins and i will send you a pay pal invoice and ship them the same day or soon after. 12.50 Nickel Version 12.50 Black Nickel Version 37.50 Set of Gold, Nickel and Black Nickel. 2.00 US and Canada shipping for first coin. 3.00 All others. .50 Additional per coin A special Thanks goes out to Oakcoins, LoriDarlin and the cute little doggie in the window. EDIT For amount and size. These are 1 3/4 inch I had the following metals made to start. 101 Nickel 99 Black Nickel 50 Gold I do not like presales so i may do another minting if the response is good. Gold may also be minted again as well but it will be the lowest amount made. Edited March 30, 2009 by River Cacher Quote Link to comment

JohnMac56 Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 I just saw one of the Black Nickel versions on EBay and it was being advertised as SOLD OUT. Are they sold out already or are there still some left??? Quote Link to comment
LoriDarlin Posted April 8, 2009 Share Posted April 8, 2009 The owner of them told me a day ago he was sold out of the gold ones but that he still had a few black nickel and silver ones left....try emailing the OP (original poster) to see - if you are still interested in buying some.
