I bought one of these at GWVIII. I didn't get any manufacturer for activation. How and where do I get the activation code?

 

actually there should have been a sticker with the code along with the coin. however you can always retrieve it here:

geocoins.biz

I recived one of these from a friend how went to geowoodstock but it did not come with a activation # wondering what I should do? :(

 

seems they forgot to give you the code sticker along.

it is

10YEARS

(for all of these coins).

When we filled out that survey, it said that although it wasn't a binding order, we WERE expected to buy:

 

remember: this is not a final binding order. however, if you fill in this form, you are expected to buy.

 

I DID expect to buy!! Now I may not be able to? :D I am NOT happy. :):D:lol:

 

Me too. :(

 

Had I known they would be for sale in the US then I probably wouldn't have bothered signing up.

 

However, even those which were available in the US were only available at GW...so now I guess we won't be getting one? Or if we do it looks like it will probably be August (or later) before we can purchase.

 

Color me confused. :)

I picked up one of these (Polished Gold version) from my favorite beancounter at Groundspeak during GW8 for US$10. Although the coin is 3", it is also zinc based, so the expected 'heft' is not there as it would have been with a copper based coin. The design of the coin is spectacular. I would have preferred IHE to the SE/Epoxy combo, but its beautiful nonetheless and a fantastic addition to my meager collection.

I made a reservation, however I was under the impression I could get a coin with the GC logo on it.... guess I'll have to wait until Sept before I make my purchase... :)
