avroair Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 (edited) People have asked what this coin is, so here's a look at it. The front portrays a googol, the largest number known, 10 to the 100th power (or 10 with 100 zeroes after it!)... the back depicts The Sand Reveler, a work by Archimedes where he tried to estimate the number of grains of sand in the universe. These coins will either be available in limited quantities at www.geoswag.com or directly at GW7. Googol coins! Edited April 5, 2009 by avroair Quote Link to comment

+sweetlife Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Avroair, cool coin dude. Didnt attend MOGA but hope to be able to get one in a trade/purchase. Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Very nice. When will they be up on Geoswag and how much will they go for? Will the GW7 coin be a unique combo of colors and metals? Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Ohhhh, nice! I wish I were back 'Stateside -- but will keep an eye open on geoswag. These are very nice and I'm a sucker for math/astronomical coins. : ) Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted April 21, 2009 Author Share Posted April 21, 2009 Googol coins! Available: HERE There are a limited number of them (far less than a googolplex worth!). Quote Link to comment

+Howlingmoon Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 I hope I can get one before they sell out. I'm broke 'til the 30th. Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted April 22, 2009 Author Share Posted April 22, 2009 I hope I can get one before they sell out. I'm broke 'til the 30th. You should be fine, if they are sold out by then, shoot me an email. Quote Link to comment
+Ashallond Posted April 23, 2009 Share Posted April 23, 2009 This math teacher would love this...but since I just started, I haven't really approached the topic of coin purchases to the wife yet...so looks like I'll miss out on this pretty coin. Neat idea btw. Quote Link to comment
+murphyrulez Posted November 20, 2009 Share Posted November 20, 2009 Just ordered one from Geoswag! Quote Link to comment
