geocoin academy Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 It took a while, but now here we go: Out of the long list (with about 100 top geocoins that appeared up to the year 2007), the 29 most outstanding geocoins were chosen for the short list. You can find this list here: http://geocoins.info/nominees.html There you will also find a link where you can cast your vote for your favourite. Please note: You can chose one coin only and vote only once. Submit your vote by April 15, 2010 Five people participating this vote will win a geocoin prize (however not of those coins depicted on that nominee list). The winning coins (and prize winners) will be anounced in this forum at the end of April 2010. (Election of the best coins of the years 2008 and 2009 will be held later this year.) Quote
+usyoopers Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Some very nice coins there but I was able to come up with a pick. Quote
+StealthRT Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Interesting. I'll check this out later today. Quote
+Crowesfeat30 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Ooh! Tough selection!! But I voted. Interested to see how this plays out. CF30 Quote
+RifleMan81 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Cast my vote. A lot of nice coins to choose from. It wasn't easy. Quote
+DaFunkyFrogs Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 wow some great looking coins there......tough to choose just 1...we are in a hurry to see the results... Quote
+SgtMikal Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Vote cast. This was fun. As a relative newbie (started in late 2008), it is amazing to see how far coins have come! Some were beautiful in their simplicity! Quote
+GATOULIS Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Sometimes... simplicity makes a coin more beautiful.... Not voted yet since there are 6 that I love and I have only 2 of them! One is my favorite, but it is the favorite coin I have.... there is an other coin that it is really my favorite..... We will see... Are the coins who are playing... the one we see in the photos or it is just the name? I mean... if we like an other color combination or an other metal version of the coin... it is still that coin.. right? It is a nice vote the one you do! I saw that you are making the same with micros! I was wondering if there are votings like this one for non trackable coins and for Mystery coins!!! I would love to see a vote for the favorite mystery coin!!! Of course.. this will not mean that other mystery coins will not be prety.... ok? All are so beautiful and unique... just like their makers! Quote
+Droo Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Tough choice.... many were easy to discard but it was still a tough vote to cast. Thanks for putting the survey together and am curious to see the results, though it's not hard to imagine. Quote
+fuzziebear3 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Could I just have 1 of each They are all nice selections. I picked one, but ask me another day and I might pick something different. Quote
+Suzyfishn Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Voted! My fave wasn't in there – Jumpin' Jack Cache ... wasn't trackable, but is one of the very FIRST coins I ever got (and big). Think it was way back even prior to those on the list. I'm thinking 2003? 2004? Quote
JohnMac56 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Talk about a tough choice... I finally narrowed it down to two and then flipped a coin... Quote
+LadyBee4T Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I was sad to see that the 2006 Compass Rose wasn't on the list. I think it is my all time favorite coin. since it wasn't there my pick was quite easy. Quote
+luckycharmer Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 This was hard - I want to vote for my top 3 choices. Finally decided on one of my all time favorites. Quote
RedShoesGirl Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 (edited) hmmmm, easy peasy, a no-brainer for my choice! Edited March 17, 2010 by RedShoesGirl Quote
+Turlutortue Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I have a couple favorites but only one came out on top. Vote submitted. Thank You! Quote
+opalsns Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 That vote was easy for me, Thanx for the cointest, Opalsns Quote
+surteb Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Cast my vote! Some great coins on that list for sure! Quote
+cainrcc Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 OK this was a little hard to pick just one but I did Quote
+CacheMiner72 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Came down to two but I picked the one that took me the most work of the two to get. Love seeing a lot of older coins. Thanks for the cointest! kayn Quote
+aka Momster Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I have only seen one of the coins listed in hand. Sad stat. Chose my favorite geocoin by marking the one I would be the most interested in studying the real coin design; fairly easy. Glad that one was there though, because choosing from the remaining favorites would have been very difficult to narrow down! On the other hand, it is a good thing I already voted and can't change my mind--the tomorrows could have ended up with a different answer/day. Quote
+Dark Elf Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Hard to decide which coin to vote but finally made a decision and voted! Quote
+kehunt64 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 There are a few coins on the list that I love but one of them is my favorite for sure Quote
+DresselDragons Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Some awesome coins on that list! Vote submitted. Quote
+Laval K-9 Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 My vote is in It was an easy decision, the coin I choose is my all time favorite. I even managed to get one for my collection, it's a keeper Quote
+Fianccetto Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 Very hard choice, had 8 favourites. Haven't handled any of them,so hard to choose. I think I might have voted differently if I were looking at real coins not pics. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted March 18, 2010 Posted March 18, 2010 I voted. I ended up going with the one I nominated eventhough there are two others I like an awful lot too. Quote
+Shadow's Friend Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 Great coins on the list - I Voted! Quote
+johan333 Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 so many to choose from and only one vote... hard but i voted. Quote
+Labrador Wild Man Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 All Great coins would make some great coin pages great idea thanks Labrador Wild Man Quote
+Cheesy pigs Posted March 19, 2010 Posted March 19, 2010 (edited) Man that was tough! A lot of them are my favourite coins, so it was really hard to pick. But I managed it (then second guessed myself lol) I own 17 of them, and have seen another 8 in person. Great bunch of coins! Edited March 19, 2010 by Cheesy pigs Quote
This.and.That.Kidd Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 Voted! And for a coin I'd definitely like to own myself eventually. - Matt Quote
+drneal Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 just a thought...might have been nice to split this into 2 groups..personal and non-personal ILYK Quote
+kini_ont Posted March 21, 2010 Posted March 21, 2010 Looked at this a couple of days ago and chose one but held off voting, wanted to see if I pick it again after a few days. Yup picked a different one this time I voted before I changed it again, to many good coins to chose Quote
