:laughing: After seeing the picture of the final coin, I am VERY happy I reserved the AC. :surprise: That's gorgeous, and even better than I'd expected. Thank you so much for keeping us updated and posting production pictures as you received them. :o

 

Edited for rewording. :o

I'm very happy with how they turned out... and seeing the production process was very cool - although we didn't get photos of the ENTIRE process due to the upcoming CNY rush, the production facility has told me that will make sure I get complete production procedural photos on a future coin.

 

I'm glad you like them!

I'm glad I reserved the complete set :ph34r: They really look great. And a set of the new Canada Capital Cachers coin. I'm gonna be expecting a lot of coins from you :ph34r:

Here's the lot:

These coins are INCREDIBLE (I'm not just saying that because I produced them) -

 

I forgot that they are 4mm thick - and are carrying some serious HEFT.... I should have charged more :unsure:

 

...I'm a packin' these babies now :unsure:

I don't think any of that front row are yours, Ruud... :anibad:

I have 7 invoices that have not yet been paid - all through the reservation process... all have had 2 reminders sent when shipping data was received from the mint.

 

So my question is: How long do I hold the reservations when no contact has been made? I'm asking this because these coins are GORGEOUS & HEFTY; additionally, these 7 reservations contain 13 LE Antique Coppers that I know will sell in a heartbeat if they were released to the general public.

 

I started a thread posing that question...

I would think one more contact effort giving the reservation holder a deadline for response would be considered due diligence. The LE will sell in a heartbeat whether tomorrow or 2 days from now.

I agree with catsnfish. Give them a notice that they have to pay within the next 3 days or so and on the fourth day you announce here before you put them in the store.

There's a fourth version ? :)

 

I reserved ONLY 5 complete sets - the 4th version is the XLE - Polished Copper with epoxy coating. Its MAGNIFICENT!

:laughing: I want a complete set too :laughing:

And I want...

For those who may receive their coins today, please be aware that if you choose to activate your coin(s), the icons have NOT yet been uploaded by Groundspeak - I just checked, and the coin symbol is still there.

Well.. I should have said.. I have 5 complete sets AVAILABLE....

I already have a set ordered. And more then $ 50 for this coin is a bit to much for me. :laughing:

Thanks Tom! I appreciate that. That is one of the reasons I went 2" on this coin, so all the info was RAISED metal and not screenprint. I guess that is another reason the coins are soooooo heavy!

If you send the XLE anyway, I got the 3-set today as well. :-)

Yeah, but I don't feel responsible in one of your geocoins being stolen an hour after having placed it in a cache, either! ;)

Already spotted two on eBay. That was quick. :unsure:

 

We activated our gold one and kept the silver un-activated to trade.

I figured, but I hope people are smart enough to to check my webstore prior to bidding too high for these coins - there are still Virtues available here.

You are NOT RESPONSIBLE! You are not the one who stole it. It's just my bad luck.

And if you sent the coin, I would feel embarrassed.

Got my coin today, very very pleased should have got complete set, cant see me releasing this one into the wild its to nice

 

And great service to the UK thanks

Thank you for the compliment! Just out of curiosity, the green customs label on the bubbler was dated - How long did it take for you to receive them?

 

ALSO ~ Keep your eyes on my webstore tomorrow at Noon US Pacific time - I sent out reservation cancellation notices today and I may have a few Antique Coppers in my store tomorrow! :unsure:

If you didn't notice, the icon selected for this coin is one directly from the coin itself - "Trade Even, Trade up".

 

I chose it because its one of the highest principals that "I" personally hold.

YAY!!!! Just ordered my two Antique copper versions!! I ordered and received (thanks Geocoin Guy!) two gold versions already, beautiful!! But I think I like the Antique copper better... SOOOO Excited!! Thank you so much for such great communication and updates Geocoin Guy! <_<:unsure:

I'm really glad you like 'em - they've been a work in progress for a long time, and I'm happy I was able to bring a 2" coin all about geocaching to the community for under $10!
