N.I.E.L.S. Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Hello, We produced decoding geocoins. The coin features maritime signal flags, sign language, flag semphore system, braille and morse code with the corresponding letters of the alphabet. We made them in antique gold (front side left) and antique zilver (back side right). We are very proud of them. The coins are for sale at K2 Coins Greetings, N.I.E.L.S. Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted July 3, 2010 Share Posted July 3, 2010 Sweet coin! Perhaps I can trade for one. Almost $20 US is more than I like to pay for one coin. CF30 Quote Link to comment
+Droo Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 I love this! Have always wanted to put out a series of nautically themed puzzle caches and this would be a cool decoder. To be honest the back does not do the front justice. Quote Link to comment
+Fianccetto Posted July 5, 2010 Share Posted July 5, 2010 (edited) I really like this coin, as we are mad about codes and Mr F knew all the nautical flags and semaphore once (we had some nautical bunting up at the weekend) I know BSL (though not the one handed alphabet yet) and Braille it is a very nice coin. Just bought an antique silver one, could not resist it. Edited July 5, 2010 by Fianccetto Quote Link to comment

N.I.E.L.S. Posted July 6, 2010 Author Share Posted July 6, 2010 We'd like to thank everybody for the kind words and praises fir this coin. Some more information about the backside. N.I.E.L.S. stands for Noordbrabants Informeel Event Lans Spoor. About each three months whe have an informal event in Noord Brabant in a cafe along a railroad track (spoor in Dutch). For each event the letters N.I.E.L.S. had also an other meaning depending on the theme. Hence "De letters zeggen alles" which is Dutch for "the letters say all". Since we are not a big group. We couldn't take the risk of making too many coins. As that would mean a big investment for us. The gold version is already sold out. Only the silver version is still available: Greetings N.I.E.L.S.

+geoquino Posted July 7, 2010 Share Posted July 7, 2010 Are you planning to pay for a unique icon or will it remain generic? Quote Link to comment
QuigleyJones Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 (edited) Very Nice, might have to get one. Guess I should have been quicker about making my own signal flag decoder. Edit to wonder if someone might trade me one. Edited July 9, 2010 by QuigleyJones Quote Link to comment
