+Crowesfeat30 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hey everyone, I was wondering whats your rarest coin(s)? My rarest is a set of mario bros holidays coins, only 15 ever minted. Which version of the mario bros holidays coins had only 15 made? I have (had actually) gold, silver & black nickel. Was there a different finish not offered? CF30 Quote Link to comment
+ECplus3 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 It all depends on what you consider to be rare. I have a number of coins that had less than 10 minted. A couple of them are admittedly my own artist editions of coins I've designed. I also have an error sample of the Rainbow Bridge coin -- only one produced. But you can also judge rarity by the difficulty in obtaining one. I have a DHOBBY1 coin that I consider to be awfully rare, and few mystery coins that are nigh impossible to trade for. Then there are my Delft Blauw coins -- wrangling a trade or sale for one of them is rare indeed! Finally there is the Gele Bussie (Yellow Bus) coin. It seems to be so rare that it only appears in peoples' seeking lists on the geocoin list sites. Quote Link to comment

avroair Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have a couple samples that only had 1 coin minted of that version... Me too I even have samples of coins that were never minted... does that mean that they never existed or are they the rarest things on earth? Quote Link to comment
+SUCKERISH Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have a Guardians of the Night All CHROME Version by Tambe. 1 of 5 minted, but check this ....... there are 2 of them in Maine !!! Funny, there are 2 in WA too :-) Those aren't leaving my house either! The other one is outside the U.S. Quote Link to comment
+amagrud Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have some samples, such as the polished gold Geocoin Fairy, 1 minted; polished silver 2009 Mississippi, 1 minted; satin silver 2009 Mississippi, one minted. Then there are the Black Nickel Geocoin Devil, 3 minted; or the copper 2009 Mississippi, 7 minted. Not sure most people could care less about these coins. Other "rare" coins that don't get much attention outside of Mississippi are the Starkville Mafia bricks, with 15 to 25 minted depending on the finish. Nice coins and can be hard to come by. I'm very fortunate to have some of the more popular "rare" coins that were minted in larger numbers, such as the Moun10bike v. 3, Capt. Prozac, 2005 Compass Rose, Geocoin Fairy (pick a finish), Micky Diver, or the first Tiki series. Of course, if you really want to see some "rare" coins, check out eBay. Seems like every geocoin sold there is rare and very hard to find! Quote Link to comment
+DJ.J.ROCK Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 i have some others too, like, umm a funkyfroggs xxle- 9 minted, i have a few with 25 or 20 minted, geo portal AEs , 25 minted, sample coins too, 1-possibly 2 minted of the portals. a few others i cant think of off the top of my head.

haysonics Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 (edited) a BN Templar that is AWESOME! Want to trade it for an equally awesome pink & gold Claddagh ? Otherwise I am going to have to buy some black spray paint. Might pick up some green and yellow cans as well. Look out ebay, here I come ! Edited November 17, 2009 by haysonics Quote Link to comment
+MustangJoni Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 A coin that is mass produced, but versions were done in 5 or 10 is like producing your own "rare" coin. I have several that fit that description, but I think of my rare coins as coins that are hard to get. Chickhominy's Eartha coin to me, is rare. You have to find it in a cache. And she had a great adventure to get it! You have to be in the right place at the right time. I followed tsun across Idaho to get one of her personal coins. You can only get that out of a cache. I don't know how many were produced. I don't care. I love that coin! Quote Link to comment
+Chickahominy Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have a 3-D rotating Eartha And It came with an awesome adventure for her, too!!!! Two adventures if you count the time I drove 24 hours to Mississippi and back for an Eartha, but it was gone when I got there. LOL! Quote Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted November 17, 2009 Share Posted November 17, 2009 I have a YELLOW (instead of Red) 2006 Compass Rose! You mean yellow where the red translucent is supposed to go? Is it gold or silver? I'd like to see it! You're going to have to come to one of our events & bring it. Or post a pic. But I'd rather see it in person... CF30 Quote Link to comment

Was there a different finish not offered? CF30 The Marios Brothers had a set of BLACK coins made (different from the black editions of the coins that were for sale) Only 15 sets made and they kept one set each(3), I have one, High Maintenance has one (a local cacher) and the other 10 went out for sale .... at a price !

+wild wiggly beanz Posted November 18, 2009 Share Posted November 18, 2009 Often there is another metal minting of a coin. All our coins have an antique copper version minted - 25 of each of the coins- but these I only give away or trade. We have just produced 200 of our new coin also in copper but it will only be given away at events as prizes- even says on the side "exclusive event donation geocoin".... does that make it rare or just hard to get one's hands on. I do own a rare 911 turbos GOLD red porsche coin that is a prize in my collection. Given to me from Ms Turbos herself. I never did get one of her yellow porsches though.... hmmm Quote Link to comment
