+anne.and.eli Posted September 17, 2009 Author Share Posted September 17, 2009 Artwork has been finalized (I think we were on version 8? I hope Emma doesn't hate me!) and samples are ordered. I somehow managed to come up with 6 combinations! Since we're going to leave early for GCF and do a national park/caching trip through four states, samples wouldn't get to me in time. However, Emma is going to bring the to GCF so I will have them there!! So exciting. Quote Link to comment

However, Emma is going to bring the to GCF so I will have them there!! So exciting. That is the cutest coin. I'm so glad the boo boo unicorn has a happier side. I saw a baby mini horse the other day in a field and she was soooo tiny. Just like a little unicorn. I could just see her with a fake horn on her head.. with ribbons! Your coin makes me smile. Nice job PS.. I have heard wonderful things about Emma. Sarah, though, should win the prize for patience as I have changed my coin SO many times that I've lost count. Quote Link to comment
love2cat Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 I like the coin. It reminds me of my daughter, so it is a must have. L2C Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 There were some issues with the rainbows in the first round of samples, so we tried something different and I just got the second set of samples today! I only ordered one sample to double check the rainbow, but I wanted to share the older samples which included a lot of different metal choices. New sample: Old samples: Now I need to figure out what combos I actually want to get produced! Quote Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I particularly like the BN version (do the unicorn in a fine white glitter... ) Any of the ones with IHE look good but I also like the one with the gold glitter (try a small flake glitter...) tho the rainbow should be filled. 2 cents...

+Laval K-9 Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 The Black Nickel is my favorite one. Hope I'll be able to get my hands on that cute little coin Quote Link to comment
gillianms Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 I still LOVE this coin. You know I want one in every metal you get. I really love the all-metal ones where just the pony/unicorn is colored in. Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 The black nickel will be the regular edition, no worries about that. Quote Link to comment

haysonics Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 (edited) I particularly like the BN version (do the unicorn in a fine white glitter... ) Methinks the crow knows Definately would have to be fine white lest ye overdo it Edited October 27, 2009 by haysonics Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted October 27, 2009 Author Share Posted October 27, 2009 I did a sample with the fine white glitter (the gold is fine glitter as well, it just is difficult to photograph). The problem is that it makes the unicorn body seem deeper than the rest of the coin - including the hooves/mane/horn. The mint does not allow having two different color glitter areas next to each other, so it ended up not being what I was hoping for. I'll attempt to take pictures tonight, but I'm not sure that it's something that can be captured in a photo. Quote Link to comment
+cache_in_hand Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 I got to see these at GCF and I have to say that they were so darn cute! Anne, I hope you got the rainbow to your liking, I can't wait to see what the new ones look like. I know they will be great. Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Hey all! I finally got the rainbow sorted out, and after a few more goes at the mint artwork I have ordered some coins! Kinda wishing I'd put 2010 on them now Anyway, I have ordered 125 Black Nickel (which will be reminted if there is interest), and 25 antique silver which will look slightly different from the version posted above. I will possibly order 25 more of them (so no more than 50 will be made) depending on interest. I also have created two gold versions and an antique copper version, and I'll be getting samples of those versions when I get my order. Pictures will be posted when I get them, probably the last week of the year! Quote Link to comment
+anne.and.eli Posted December 4, 2009 Author Share Posted December 4, 2009 Here is the mint artwork of the various versions. All the antiqued versions will have small glitter in the tail/mane/hooves/horn. There will be a unique icon which I have yet to design. Quote Link to comment
