+Where'sMyMarbles Posted July 27, 2010 Posted July 27, 2010 Wow!! I want them!!! Great job!!! E&Cplus3!!! Quote
+Crowesfeat30 Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 I have to talk to the mint about quality control while they are stoning them. They took a lot of metal off some of them while polishing -- especially the antique silver. The lines are too 'fat' for my liking. I want them all to be like the black nickel w/ orange enamel. Nice thin sharp lines. And a big grin on the Cheshire Cat. Yeah, the Yellow BN one looks perfect but the others not so much. The lines are much thicker on all of the other versions. CF30 Quote
+Shadow's Friend Posted July 28, 2010 Posted July 28, 2010 They look great to me!! I hope to get one of each Quote
+JoenGPS Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 We are soooooo in on this one... Outstanding! Quote
sawlog21 Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Well, I had to show these to Sunshine and she immediately wanted them all. Very nice indeed, partial to the BN ones as well. Any word on when and where we can acquire them? Quote
+mekk Posted July 29, 2010 Posted July 29, 2010 Beautiful! Will be keeping an eye out for these! Quote

+Crowesfeat30 Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Well I'll probably miss out on the ones I'm interested in 'cause I'll be outta of the house until sometime this evening. Alas... CF30 Quote
+ThirstyMick Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 ooh those came out nice! I'll probably miss the sale since I'm headed out soon until tomorrow night, if anyone wants to trade a purple/bn for my personal, shoot me an email! Quote
+ECplus3 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Posted July 31, 2010 ooh those came out nice! I'll probably miss the sale since I'm headed out soon until tomorrow night, if anyone wants to trade a purple/bn for my personal, shoot me an email! This is going to be a pre-sale. There is very little chance of missing out on a coin unless you want the antique silver set. The pre-sale period will be 10 days. Quote
+Where'sMyMarbles Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Awesome coin!!! Ordered one Purple/Black Nickel for me! Would LOVE to have gotten more, but gotta watch my spending right now. If anyone gets extras and wants to trade PLEASE E-mail me!! Quote
+Zwack_&_Irish_Eyes Posted July 31, 2010 Posted July 31, 2010 Preordered--I hope. Got error message from PHD page, but payment confirmation from PP. Ordered (I hope!) the orange and black version. LOVE it! Quote
+ECplus3 Posted July 31, 2010 Author Posted July 31, 2010 Preordered--I hope. Got error message from PHD page, but payment confirmation from PP. Ordered (I hope!) the orange and black version. LOVE it! Your order is confirmed. The error is because I'm experimenting with the Auto Return feature on the paypal checkout page. Haven't got it down yet, but I'm working on it! This error will not affect your order confirmation, payment, or my record of who has ordered what. I hope to get it fixed soon! Quote
+Jackalgirl Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 (edited) Seems to be working now. : ) Order in! (oops, it was order #147, not 174!) Edited August 1, 2010 by Jackalgirl Quote
+Crowesfeat30 Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 Order in! Love your write-up for these coins. "Madness indeed" I spent the day engaged in wonderful madness doing the Caveman Zipline at Meramec Caverns this morning (worth every penny) and then caching the rest of the day. CF30 Quote
+GoldBugGirl Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 Ohhh, I just had to order one of these, now I'll have to add a new category to my collection to "file" it in, since this coin doesn't fit into any of the categories I've already set up. Funny thing is, I set up the system to put a constraint on which coins I acquire, since I can't have 'em all. So much for self-control! Quote

+ECplus3 Posted August 6, 2010 Author Posted August 6, 2010 Just 4 more days in the pre-sale period! The pre-sale ends August 10th at midnight AST (11:00PM Eastern; 8:00PM Pacific). Quote
+nashuan Posted August 6, 2010 Posted August 6, 2010 The last time I ordered coins was sometime around the AEToys disaster, but having just put out an Alice In Wonderland series of caches in the New Hampshire area (called "Alicetoid" caches as each cache log is located in an Altoid can) I just had to place an order for these beauties. They look great - can't wait to see them up close and personal. Quote
+anne.and.eli Posted August 7, 2010 Posted August 7, 2010 I want the gold and the a.silver one. I could order the set, but it doesn't include the gold. Bahhhh. Choices! Quote
+ECplus3 Posted August 7, 2010 Author Posted August 7, 2010 I want the gold and the a.silver one. I could order the set, but it doesn't include the gold. Bahhhh. Choices! The set includes the gold w/ red, silver w/ blue, copper w/ green and antique silver w/ black. The set doesn't include the black nickel w/ orange or the black nickel w/ purple. Quote
+kini_ont Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 I want the gold and the a.silver one. I could order the set, but it doesn't include the gold. Bahhhh. Choices!

I'm glad I saw this post, had thought these were in the set, just ordered the other two Quote
+anne.and.eli Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 Sorry, when I said gold, I meant the black nickel with the gold (orange) enamel. I just wish there was a set with the orange and the ant. silver! (What a WHINER I am!) I shall make do! Quote
+the family bu Posted August 8, 2010 Posted August 8, 2010 gorgeous coins - i just love them, sadly no pennies at moment so will have to keep my eye for them when i'm better and can afford one. Quote
+ECplus3 Posted August 8, 2010 Author Posted August 8, 2010 gorgeous coins - i just love them, sadly no pennies at moment so will have to keep my eye for them when i'm better and can afford one. I always order a few extra of each version in case there are errors. When everything has been shipped the remaining coins will go up on my website. I'll announce that in the forums here. Quote

+ECplus3 Posted August 18, 2010 Author Posted August 18, 2010 The order is in! The mint says coins will be shipped Aug 26th. The icon is already up on the "Latest Designs" list but may scroll off so I'll show them here: 32x32: 16x16: Quote
pkfmly Posted August 18, 2010 Posted August 18, 2010 Oh no, am I too late? I want to order a Silver with blue enamel but I could only order one during the pre-sale? Or am I confused? Super cute! Quote

+ECplus3 Posted August 31, 2010 Author Posted August 31, 2010 Production has been delayed a week. The coins will not be shipping from the factory until Thursday Sept. 2nd. I suspect I will not have them until the following Tuesday due to the long weekend. Quote

You mean the power is back on and the post office is accepting (& delivering) mail after the hurricane I heard from a friend who lives in Halifax that we (Midland) had higher winds and more rain then you did Forgot to mention great to hear their in I don't know about the winds (we were officially a Cat. 1 hurricane with gusts up to 130km/hr), but we got off easy on the rain. There was still enough to collapse all the holes I had dug for the footings of my new deck though. Gotta wait for them to dry out a bit and dig 'em out again. We only lost power for 5 hours, but some parts of the city only just got it back yesterday (60 hrs without power). The only problem I'm facing is a lack of mailers! I went to my regular dollar store only to find that they were out! Gonna have to break down and buy some from Staples I guess. Quote
