+geoaware Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 (edited) EarthCache.org is pleased to announce the release of the EarthCache Masters geocoin series. There are four coins, one for each existing EarthCache Master level. Each coin has the EarthCache Masters logo on the front with an Earth science cartoon on the back. They are 45mm in diam. and 3 mm thick. They are trackable through www.geocaching.com and have their own icon. All four coins are available individually for US9.99 (+ SH) through the www.earthcache.org store. Shipping and handling is just US$5 for any number of items to anywhere in the world! A boxed set of coins will go on sale in October for $59.99. The numbers of these coins are limited. We would like to thank the Landsharkz team for helping us with this series! <Moderator Note: Included a direct link to the store - Groundspeak approved> Edited September 16, 2009 by Flying Spaghetti Monster Quote Link to comment
+catsnfish Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Order has been placed! Quote Link to comment
+Bambography Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Its a shame to hear these are limited following the demise of the pins. These would be a great replacement to buy as and when you reach each level. Quote Link to comment
+Vanelle Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 I was hoping to see this series soon. Thanks. I sent in an order. I too, would suggest that if there is enough demand for it, that the coin not be limited. Exclusivity just doesn't seem to fit for this one. Quote Link to comment
+geoaware Posted September 15, 2009 Author Share Posted September 15, 2009 Pins will also be sold soon on www.earthcache.org up to Gold level. Platinum pins will only be available directly through application and send free of charge to those who reach that level. These coins are something very special...and so will have limited numbers. A small number of boxed sets will be released in October. Quote Link to comment
+gardengorilla Posted September 15, 2009 Share Posted September 15, 2009 Why will the boxed set be more than the total for all four coins, is there an extra coin in it? Quote Link to comment
+hollora Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Why will the boxed set be more than the total for all four coins, is there an extra coin in it? Hum, I did the math too - and wondered the same thing? Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 Why will the boxed set be more than the total for all four coins, is there an extra coin in it? Cuz they will be in a box Not to be silly, but I would expect the "box set" to actually have a lined box, maybe velvet, maybe wood grain. Maybe airtites around each coin. Maybe an information card. At least that's what my mind says when I hear the term. I think like a state quarter proof set. My two cents. TMA Quote Link to comment

+Cav Scout Posted September 16, 2009 Share Posted September 16, 2009 How many of each metal was made? If the numbers are low I would be interested.

+Cav Scout Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 I take it that since this question was not answered by the coin designer that the coins are not limited and should be available for some time. How many of each metal was made? If the numbers are low I would be interested. Pins will also be sold soon on www.earthcache.org up to Gold level.
