+Chickahominy Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 (edited) So, I am finally ready to debut my personal geocoin. Sara, at Oakcoins, and I have been working on it for months. The mint is finalizing a few details for me, and then we will go into production. This coin will be available for trades and gifting. Edited to say: I have a little list of people who I already owe a coin to. Edited September 15, 2009 by Chickahominy Quote Link to comment

+Chickahominy Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Thank you for all of the nice compliments. It is the first coin I've designed and I wanted it "just right" before posting here for all of you experts to look over. There will be 4 gemstones per coin. It will be 3.5 MM thick. To be minted in Antique Gold, Antique Silver, and a Copper finish. 100 coins in all to be minted. Fewest of the gold <-- my personal fave I'll take offers for trades, once I have it in hand. Too much to keep up with at the moment to fret with that. Yes, I'm excited! Quote Link to comment

+tsunrisebey Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I really like it and I hope you'll consider doing 1 version with some translucents tsun Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I really like it and I hope you'll consider doing 1 version with some translucents tsun The 3D nature of the front may not allow for translucents And the back doesn't appear to have an outer wall to catch fill. But I agree on the comment Quote Link to comment

But I agree on the comment Wow Pete, you give me no credit. I saw it was 3D, I was referring to the colored flowers and the compass. Otherwise I'm assuming the rooster would have shown color otherwise. However, I don't have much experience in these matters Quote Link to comment
