Area 51 Series - UFO Geocoin

[+DJ.J.ROCK]

i think youll sell out of this design very fast! great job

[+burgessfour]

I would like a set as well, maybe two

[+oaklakers]

I want a whole set with all 4 versions of this geocoin!

[+rockotter]

I would definitely like a coin or 3. Looks great!!

[+Zelanzy]

I've missed a few updates...had to get some "disc golf" in before winter so took a little geocoin break

 

Anyhow, excellent!! I'm looking forward to this one!!

 

For your specific feedback request: I'd buy whatever the limit is...

Back on track to move forward with samples soon. I think you guys will be happy with some of the changes to the project. More soon.

[+GaryM53]

Count me in on a (4) coin set if possible. The AE should look great!

[+NicElliott]

i'll take a black nickel, my favorite!!!!

[Majic12]

I would buy a few...

 

Would the finish be glossy or matte? ... I would rather see a matte finish on mine. Ive never heard of a glossy UFO but then again I have not seen to many either...lol

I'm thinking about doing some with a glossy/shiny finish, and some in Antique finishes.

[+Team kizb]

Here is v6 of the artwork. It is now a full 15mm thick to allow for the 3D effects.

 

Besides for a few little details this should be the final artwork.

 

Next the mint is going to create a scale clay mold so I can see how the UFO will look before I approve the design for samples.

 

I've also decided to go back to a 2" design and will be increasing the mint numbers to achieve this. The good news is the price for at least the REs (and hopefully the LEs) should remain the same with this bump in size.

 

Thanks for the great input and ideas so far, keep it coming!

I would love a (4) coin set. I love the Black Nickel and Gold combination the best. Count me in.

[+cache_in_hand]

Do I take it that your RE's are one metal but your LE's and AE's are two toned?

[+Team kizb]

Yes, RE's will be one plating.

 

LE's will feature two plantings. The top and bottom will be one color, the ring will be another color.

[RedShoesGirl]

Yes, RE's will be one plating.

 

LE's will feature two plantings. The top and bottom will be one color, the ring will be another color.

 

you know of course, everyone is going to want the two tone, and that includes me! did you say when you will start taking reservations?

Yes, the two tone versions should be stunning and might not last long. I might have to consider looking at my mint numbers for them again.

 

Now that my Power Cache Series has published I think I'm ready to start reservations.

[+The Amigos]

I want a reservation for the Black Nickel and Gold! That was my favorite choice from the beginning when you asked about colors!!

[+Team kizb]

I'm now accepting reservations for the UFO Geocoin.

 

As most of you know besides for a few little details v6 should be the final artwork. The mint should begin work on the clay mold shortly for final approval of the project before creating the molds for the samples.

 

Final mint numbers and finishes have not been set at this time, but here is the current information for the first "Geocoin" in the Area 51 Series

Thank You for the great response to Reservations! In less than 24 hours I've almost sold out of LE's and AE's,

I think I may have confused things a little as to how the 41 available LE's would be split up. Most have been reserved as part of sets and there are now only 4 LE's available as part of Set 2.

 

Here is what is remaining as part of the reservations:

 

RE's $15

 

Set 2 A complete set of all four versions: Two RE's, One LE, and One AE for $60 (limit 2 per person, only 4 sets still available)

Edited November 8, 2010 by Team kizb

[+Team kizb]

ALL Sets & LE's are now SOLD OUT.

 

If you would still like one of the sets or the LE contact me with your request and I'll place you on the waiting list. This does not guarantee your request will be filled, only priority if someone cancels their reservation.

 

Both versions of the RE (Chrome & Antique Silver) are still available for $15 ea.

Samples are now being produced. I should have them early Dec. Will post pictures as soon as I receive them.

[+Team kizb]

I've received Sample pictures and I'm very happy with the way they turned out. I'm still on the road so I'll upload the rest when I stop for the night. The Samples are currently being re-cast since the ring wasn't spinning very well, so they're adjusting the mold and re-casting. I should have the new ones by next week. Bellow is a picture of one of the RE's. Opinions welcome.

WOW!!! Amazing coins and versions!!!! I can not say which version is the best! I love them all!!! AE, LE, the 2 RE....

 

Emm... Chrome is actually the polished silver or polished nickel? (I like it!!!)

[+Mekle]

These samples turned out stellar (or, should I say interstellar?)!

 

I am splitting a set with a friend, and based on these samples we're going to have some "discussions" on who gets what.

[RedShoesGirl]

be sure to let us know when you receive a reservation so we know you understand what we are reserving! you must be inundated with emails.

Here's a profile picture and a preview of the custom packaging. I decided this project deserved more than just a vinyl flip. I'm sure you guys will agree.

 

 

A Top Secret Area 51 Access Card is also in development. It will be unlike any Trackable you've ever seen. Something truly new and cutting edge for the Geocoin community.
