+DresselDragons Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 version C, anyone know where that one is going, which event? Those were samples made before any of the event organizers picked our colors...so, I doubt that any of those were minted for any of the events (except maybe Mark's, since he was involved in minting them).

+the4dirtydogs Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 LOVE these coins! So glad I joined the GC&P club last month!!! Wish we were closer to the Bay area. This is definitely an event we would have attended. Too bad no one from So Cal is throwing one! Really well done avroair! Quote Link to comment

Correct Vanelle and Anne.and.Eli did a few samples before we had knuckled down all the design elements --- C was not used although I have the sample at home. Quote Link to comment

+AtlantaGal Posted January 21, 2011 Share Posted January 21, 2011 It looks very nice! Wish I had realized we could color the face as I would have done mine a bit differently. Is it ink or is it black nickel, making the coin two tone? Quote Link to comment

Is it ink or is it black nickel, making the coin two tone? Not sure as it could be black nickel on gold. I just thought we could only do two tone on the features around the eyes and nose and not the other way around. Quote Link to comment

Thanks for posting these pics for all to see! i joined the club but haven't received any notification yet. hope it all went through ok! Not to confuse anyone, by "notification", I mean that I get regular e-mails from them when new stuff is available or there's a sale going on. A pic of the club version of the coin was part of the mailing. I could send it to you, if you'd like. . I don't usually get notified when they send a coin to me; it usually just shows up on my doorstep. Like a nice surprise, most of the time. Quote Link to comment
+AtlantaGal Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 As long as you join the Geoswag club before January 27th, you will get their version. I believe you have to sign up for a minimum of a 3-month membership tho. Quote Link to comment

I was quoting their last email blast referring to the masquerade coin. It said 3-month minimum membership (see below) Venetian Mask Geocoin & Pin Set Only available to club members. We ask new members to sign up for a minimum of 3 months by clicking on the link below or on the photo. Payment must be received by the 27th of January, 2011 to receive this coin.
