+Sepp & Berta Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 (edited) I'd like to inform you about our latest project www.mypersonalgeocoin.de! Very often we received inquiries about personal geocoins. Because the production only pays off if more than 200 pcs are made, many had to cast away the idea of an own coin. So we looked for a very long time to find a solution for offering small and also trackable editions - and we found it: we produced a blank geocoin in 8 different metal editions that can be individualized with own ideas and images. Especially for that a Coin-Configurator was programmed that makes designing your personal coin a piece of cake! And the minimum qty is only 1 Coin! Design your Coin Starting from 1 piece! (1 coin is only ~USD13.00 without VAT for outer Europe) mypersonal Geocoins can be highly personalized and are suitable for various occassions. For example as: - Present for Cacherfriends (Birthday, Marriage, Baby, anniversary) - Event-Coin - personal Coin with own picture or avatar image - Present for a FTF - ciphered mystery-Coin with QR- or barcode - special mission - low quantity editions The Coin-Configurator is very userfriendly and doesn't reqiure any previous knowledge. There are almost no borders for your design ideas! - Font and size can be chosen freely - Position can be chosen freely and is fully scalable - Choose a background color or a image and place it where you want - rotateable 3D-preview of your design with all available metal variants Examples: ( more customized Geocoins click here!) Backside (8 different metaleditions available) Features 44mm diameter 34mm UV-, scratch- and waterproof Laminate-Sticker for your Design 45g weight Different metal editions chooseable Trackable at Geocaching.com Own Icon Official Name: my personal Geocoin Prefix: PS If you'd like to get more information about mypersonalGeocoin or if you'd like to try the configurator, please visit our website at www.mypersonalgeocoin.de.

+millieballon Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I ordered some a few weeks ago and they turned out very well. I've made six holiday coins for myself and a 1000 finds coin for my sister. Delivery was fast, but i'm living next to Germany Quote Link to comment

I think you need to remove the exclamation mark at the end. Thanks a lot! I fixed it! How is the image put on the coin? Is it enamel, a photograph/printout under epoxy, something else? Is the custom image stamped onto the coin? In any case, this looks like a great option! Quote Link to comment

Some examples of already produced coins are shown on the website. Many greetings from snowy Bavaria, Sepp & Berta Quote Link to comment

Many Many Tears. Neal this is absolutely Very Very Beautiful. You look at her as if you are in shock as she is going to be your forever Angel. Every day I feel you pain as she is missing in your life. I could not even begin to tell you how I would feel if Barry was ever taken away from me. I think of you every day and feel your saddness. I know the pain is in your heart forever. Just know I am always here for you.~Valarie Quote Link to comment
+brettp2004 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 Has anyone ordered one of these from the US? I would like to order one but once I get to the "Proceed To Cart" part it puts it in German. Also the price is in Euros can I still pay with USD? Sorry if these are dumb questions, I've never ordered anything from Europe online before. Your help is appreciated. Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 I don't think that there's any way to do either, I'm afraid. But you can get a lot of help with Google. First, you can convert from euros to dollars to get an idea of what you'll be paying by just typing in, as your search term, "convert x euros to dollars" where "x" is the actual number. And the text that you get when you select "Proceed to Cart" is something like: "you can now put your coins in the shopping cart. You can complete the request [order] in the next step. Please double-check the desired quantity." And the button says something like [Put the coins in the shopping cart and complete the order]. As for actual payment: it's done through PayPal. You'll pay in Euros, but PayPal will automatically convert at whatever exchange rate it's using and pull that quantity of dollars out of your account. Very handy, PayPal. ; ) I hope this helps!

You might also want to assume your credit card will charge a service fee for paying in euros...I think the last I got was $1.75 ILYK Quote Link to comment
+Jackalgirl Posted May 12, 2011 Share Posted May 12, 2011 I just wanted to post a picture of a geocoin I had made for my daughter. It turned out really nicely! The little damaged bit on the sticker is not Sepp & Berta's fault: the coin arrived in perfect condition. Summer did that. ; ) Did you all use Trans #2 for the red on the coin? The red enamel on the coin is more pink than red -- but that's absolutely perfect, because that's Summer's favorite color. Thanks for a job well done! Quote Link to comment
