Largely guided by TeamAmaroo, this coin is in mint art production and will be presold by C&P as a trackable geocoin this winter.

 

Bright transulcent colors: 2 versions (only 1 shown) and hoping for a large size :rolleyes:

 

I'll update with mint art when it comes around :huh:

I received the samples today and this coin looks absolutely stunning, even better than I expected! I will take pictures tomorrow.

 

Also, it will still be presold, but on scavok.com rather than c&p like i originally planned; I will keep this thread updated :)

I took a handful of photos this afternoon which will be edited and uploaded to the website later today, but here's a quick peek of this big coin:

Hope you all like :anitongue:

So here is the photo post. I had samples done in 2 color schemes and in 2 different metals. I think I will offer it in a couple other metals as well after I have some time to decide. The green dress is on black nickel and the purple is on shiny nickel (hard to tell since I had to angle it away from the flash).

 

Here is a link to the web page with all photos.

 

A couple more quick shots with some detail and then one in hand for some size comparison:

This may be my first geocoin purchase! Hopefully I will get to see this one and the Celtic Tree of Life in person some day. Since I am new at this, I might miss my chance but at least I'll try!

*snippy*the colors used on the quote side of the coin, that's the part that really appeals to me cause I'm not one for dresses ;)

But I bet you'd look adorable in one of those dresses...

:anibad:

I'd probably have an allergic reaction if I had to put one on :D

Just wanted to give an FYI to those watching the thread, I'll be starting the presale tonight! I'll give links and a list of finishes as well.

Did they two-tone nickel under the translucent areas?

Um...did the presale not happen last night? :huh: I see the coin on your sales page, but no options. I didn't miss out, did I?

 

I dont think so...I have been keeping an eye out as well ;)

Whew! Thanks for letting me know. I've gotten about 3 hours of sleep here, I thought I may have missed it.

I'm working on it I promise!! It will be up tonight - Err at this point I guess its AM now. I got home late, OK :)

 

Don't lose sleep over it, it is a presale, you'll have a couple weeks to get your orders in :)

Yes they did, shiny nickel under the colors otherwise the dark color scheme's purple came out almost black itself on the black nickel finish.

The presales are active!

 

A direct link to the listing HERE.

 

I decided to offer a shiny gold finish as well. I don't have any photos of that one, but I am certain it will be quite nice :)

I'm not too paranoid, huh? :lol:

It's been that kind of week for me. ;)

I received the coins and they are perfect, they really turned out great! They will all go out on Tuesday morning. I had previously sent out an email to subscribers that they were going out today... but the P.O. is closed :)

Got my order of Irish Dancing dresses today! They are so beautiful! :grin:

I think you need to hold this in your hand to really appreciate the details in this one. Love it!

I'm going to send out one on a journey soon; keeping my fingers crossed it lasts a while, and that many others will get to enjoy it as much as I do.

Thank you, scavok, for making yet another great design!

Huh. Coins and Pins won't give me an activation code, it keeps saying "please try again". I also tried just retrieving one from geocaching, but: The manufacturer of this Trackable has requested that activation codes be retrieved from their web site. :blink:

I know I'm inputting the correct tracking code, so not sure what's wrong. Ideas?
