I was able to take a pic of Ontario's (DR.COG version) today...

Emerald Coast Florida's coin got in today:

 

 

Seeing the coin in person really put my fears to rest after the mint changed the placement of some of the colors. It looks great!

 

Now just need to make sure the event is great too!

[CCWelch 7]

Checked this morning, still no activation codes available

 

i doubt they will be released until may 1st, and tbh i wouldn't want to activate them before the date anyway

 

I want to release one on the 1st during my event, I need to have it drilled and tagged and really wanted it to be activated before that happened.

[CCWelch 7]

Activation codes are now up...Question? are these all a common code or do they vary?

My "traded to" list looks pretty much the same as yours. If anyone else would like to trade - before OR after the events, I have extras ordered just for that purpose. Just contact me thru my geocaching profile or PM.

It's highly likely that we will have coins available for trade after the event. Time to start the last-minute planning details!

Another 10 Years event to add to the list.

 

Event Cache10 Years! Bridgewater Flash Mob & Trackables Release

I didn't get this off the ground in time to get in on the coin, but I have another type of trackable in the works for the event (pending Groundspeak approval).

You know this event doesn't qualify for the official 10 Year!-icon?

[+Ruud4d 0]

I'm glad to announce that the coins have arrived in Holland. Thank you all for this fine coorporation!

And of course I have a picture. Not taken with a fancy camera. Just the one on my phone.

[+Mar-elendili 0]

Our coins have also made it to Switzerland! Phew, at long last. I am relieved! And they look so great!

 

 

Thanks to all who contributed to make this group coin possible, it has been a very enjoyable experience.

Actually, I didn't even know there was a 10 Year Icon. I've been tied up with finishing a degree and haven't had time to follow all the talk. Someone else just pointed out to me that Flash Mobs weren't eligible so I've changed the event to comply. Thanks for the info!

you might want to read this, you still have some time to make the event qualify for the new icon

So the web site says:

 

If you are interested in hosting a 10 Years! event, you are welcome to submit it as a normal event cache at this time. We will provide details on how to switch the listing to a 10 Years! event soon.

 

Have any of the details mentioned been released yet? Sorry if this has already been covered, I have not been able to catch up as I normally do due to still being away from home.

 

TIA,

I do not see any new requirements other than what is listed on the "lost and Found" area, are there any instructions for after the event to get the icon changed or are they just going to automatically look at these events and see if we have posted the required things? Also, how do I submit a photo to Groundspeak of my event?

[CCWelch 7]

To Avroair, Eltada and everyone else involved in getting this project off the ground, Thank You for your time and effort!

 

To all the participants in this project...Good Luck on your events and I hope everyone has wonderful weather!!

We will have to do this again some time!!

We're releasing some code this week that includes this update. You won't need to take any action on your part. Have a great event!

 

Here is what a Lackey said about it yesterday in another section of the forum.

[+River Cacher 0]

The Idaho Geocoins sure look nice in hand.

 

Da_Muggle did a nice job on picking the colors :?)

 

Are all of these events with these coins approved for the 10 year icon ???

 

We submitted a event for Idaho but there has been no conformation of using the icon.

 

Do we need to ask or is it automatic ??

 

Thanks and good luck to all at there events.

 

[+Crowesfeat30 0]

*big snippy*anyone doing a European ash coin?

Yeah, it's gonna be called "Get Off Yer Ash & Get Out Caching"

Thanks t4e. The changes have been made; hopefully everything is in compliance now. Just have to make my sign for the group picture.

 

If anyone wants to purchase one of the event trackables for release, they're $3 and you can buy them here (see the details at the top of the page about how they'll be released). It's not a geocoin, but it is trackable.

[LadyBee4T 14]

It looks like the 4 events in SC have the 10 Year icon and no one else. I hope that the others appear soon!!

[+AtlantaGal 0]

Word is your local reviewers have to manually make the icon change for events in their areas. I'm glad SC has such a prompt reviewer

HOORAY ICON!!!!!

 

I was hoping to activate one of the coins and put it in the event for folks to discover. Is there a reason the activation codes are not available yet?

[+JoenGPS 5]
