+Suzyfishn Posted April 14, 2010 Author Share Posted April 14, 2010 Here's the photo samples! IHE enamel sample as well as a pantone "translucent" - This is different from traditional translucents. They put a slight texture behind the color, giving a glowing almost glittery look! Pretty! The mint missed getting us a translucent cow sample, but I've posted another coin with the technique on it. Also checking timelines, and will likely close orders for this project on April 30 (maybe April 23), so if you are thinking of ordering and haven't yet, get that to me soon! See post 71 for how-to instructions. Front IHE Back IHE Translucent Quote Link to comment

+Toojin Posted May 12, 2010 Share Posted May 12, 2010 Message I received from suzyfishn on April 28th I'm submitting the order first of next week. You will be getting an invoice through PayPal from Hogwild Coins, who is doing the minting. They didn't think they were sending invoices out until late May/early June. I will keep you posted!

+Suzyfishn Posted May 13, 2010 Author Share Posted May 13, 2010 Sorry, keep forgetting to post in here as most were following the Twitter thread. The orders have been submitted, and everyone will receive an invoice within next week or so Quote Link to comment

+Suzyfishn Posted June 8, 2010 Author Share Posted June 8, 2010 Well, I'm back from vacation, but haven't had an opportunity to check all my emails or get on the web for the past 10 days. Hogwild folks thought they'd have the invoices out before I left, don't know what the hold up is. But don't panic! She assured me we had plenty of time - especially since this isn't a larger order and the mint is very reliable. If I don't have an update email from them, I will contact her Wednesday when I return to work and let ya know the skinny Quote Link to comment

+Suzyfishn Posted June 9, 2010 Author Share Posted June 9, 2010 I did hear back from the minting gal today. She is ready to send out invoices. And the finished coins are expected to be in her hands within a week! yippee. Except for a couple of folks who aren't attending GW, all coins will be sent to me and I will deliver them to you at the event.... I still have to iron out the where/time, etc. Quote Link to comment
+FluteFace Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 My invoice showed up a bit over an hour ago. There is a $3 shipping fee, but I assume that is shipping to you (Suzyfishn), so I'm whippin' out the checkbook (ok, PayPal) and payin'. Thanks for the work you did with this and putting up with my Pantone Purple. Quote Link to comment

+ZeroHecksGiven Posted June 10, 2010 Share Posted June 10, 2010 dadgum, how did I skip over this for so long, kind of bummed I didn't jump in on this... Are there ones being minted without any names on them or a way for me to get one? Quote Link to comment

Are there ones being minted without any names on them or a way for me to get one? Bummer! Sorry you missed these. But I'm sure some folks are willing to do trades for their coins - although they aren't getting them until I see them at GW. Most have ordered 50 or more. I have an extra sample coin - it's purply-pinkish - you can see the samples in this thread that I can give ya. It does have the mint name on the back - but they are cute coins.

There is a $3 shipping fee, but I assume that is shipping to you (Suzyfishn), so I'm whippin' out the checkbook (ok, PayPal) and payin'. Thanks for the work you did with this and putting up with my Pantone Purple. The coins are shipping to me for delivery at GW. That $3 fee was to cover some paypal cost which I mentioned a while back. They had to guestimate at that time what it would be, which the mint gal thought would be in the $2-$3 range. Looks like they flat rated $3 to everyone, which I'm sure helps covers a bit of the shipping cost, too. I have no problem with that since we got such a good rate on the coins. I will figuring out a meeting location at GW - maybe at the Midnight Madness coin event - to get you all your coins. Might have to have a "moo-night" cow coin trade amongst ourselves!

+Suzyfishn Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 The mini moos are done! Trying to coordinate with the gal now for distribution at GW. The mint gal is attending GW and if all goes to plan she will distribute some to those who can pickup as early as Thursday evening (location not yet decided) and for sure on Friday at the luau. That way they will be available for your trading pleasure throughout the weekend! See you all soon! Quote Link to comment
