+avroair Posted May 18, 2011 Author Posted May 18, 2011 Thank Goldbuggirl, good to know someone knows what they are talking about! Here's the original sample photo. Version A was submitted by AnneAndEli and became the California event edition. B was never used. C is the Summer Solstice version (due June 21st), D was junked, E was junked, and F was submitted by Vanelle and became her New York version. All these samples were trackable and thrown into the mystery/random sample sales bin they have on geoswag, so I no longer have them (since a few people have asked). Quote

I'm just sorry that the sample D was scrapped; I may be in a minority, but I really(!!) like it! I look forward to June 21! Quote

Must buy mystery grab bags from geoswag.... Must buy mystery grab bags from geoswag.... Must buy mystery grab bags from geoswag.... I quite like the never used/junked versions! There is just something about Version D... You should do a rainbow version as there are 7 segments top and bottom - ROYGBIV Quote
+rhodesisland Posted May 18, 2011 Posted May 18, 2011 and a Masque of the Red Death version! Poe fans demand it! Quote
+rhodesisland Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 I'm still looking for these Venetian Mardi Gras Masquarade Mask Geocoin versions: Artist's Edition aka Ronaldo Pittsburgh Seattle Washington aka Seattle version 2 I only have the limited edition Guam Geocoins for trade, but I am willing to purchase. Please email if you, or someone you know has any of these Mask coins! Thanks! Quote
+avroair Posted May 24, 2011 Author Posted May 24, 2011 There is just something about Version D... It's the lump of coal version... expect it at Christmas! Quote
+keewee Posted May 24, 2011 Posted May 24, 2011 (edited) There is just something about Version D... It's the lump of coal version... expect it at Christmas! It would also make a good World Cup Winners version! Just needs a silver fern, that's all. Edited May 24, 2011 by keewee Quote
+rhodesisland Posted May 30, 2011 Posted May 30, 2011 I am still hoping to track down an Artist's Edition (Ronaldo) Venetian Mardi Gras Masquerade Mask Coin -- and maybe a Pittsburg one also! Again I don't have much to trade, but am willing to purchase these coins! If you have a spare one, or know some one who does, please send me an email. Thanks! rhodesisland Quote
+avroair Posted June 2, 2011 Author Posted June 2, 2011 These just arrived: Summer Solstice Venetian mask (or commonly referred to as Sample C): They will be available June 21st Two-tone nickel on satin gold, with translucent and glitter, and lots of tiny gems... This is a limited seasonal run (commonly know as an F5 edition!) and will not be reminted Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 (edited) MOST EXCELLENT!! I can hardly wait!! Thanks for the update!! I like it better than the Sample; it seems to me the green is darker than in the Sample, correct? Awaiting with baited breath! Edited June 3, 2011 by rhodesisland Quote
+Azure Sky Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Very cool - like the dark green coloring of this one. Quote
+Sadie'sOwner Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 I can't wait! I hope I am fast enough to get one! Quote
+Where'sMyMarbles Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Oooooh, very nice! Hopefully work will not interfere, grrr. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Very cool - like the dark green coloring of this one. I don't think that's dark green. Looks like #21 trans to me, which is blue. Quote
+DresselDragons Posted June 3, 2011 Posted June 3, 2011 Very cool - like the dark green coloring of this one. I don't think that's dark green. Looks like #21 trans to me, which is blue. Probably the illusion of green...yellow (gold finish) + trans blue = green?? Quote

+rhodesisland Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 guess it is blue....the coloring on the ebay picture is apparently more accurate.... Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted June 5, 2011 Posted June 5, 2011 They are on E-bay already!!! The artist is selling his. Quote
+avroair Posted June 6, 2011 Author Posted June 6, 2011 This is the most accurate photo (sample C). I was given quite a few of these since Geoswag forgot to send me payment in coins for the club version. I have a buy-it-now Dutch auction on ebay for those who can't wait. If anyone would like to trade I'd be happy to look at their traders. They are available June 21st, I am not sure of the price, but there will be a sales limit of 5 per person I am told. Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Thanks for keeping us updated, avroair! I'm sorry I don't follow twitter, now that there's someone worth following! Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Just to update my needs list....I need to complete my collection!! I'm only missing the AE (Ronaldo) version. Anyone know who created it? Or who might have a spare one to sell!?! Quote
+LewisClan77 Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 Anyone know who created it? Or who might have a spare one to sell!?! avroair created it. Not sure if he would have one, or be willing to part with one. Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 6, 2011 Posted June 6, 2011 That sneaky avroair! He creates the best coins! Now to see if he has just one...Ronaldo left....I'm sure he's noticed my need posted above...I've gotten three others from him! Just hoping for the complete set! Quote
+avroair Posted June 8, 2011 Author Posted June 8, 2011 That sneaky avroair! He creates the best coins! Now to see if he has just one...Ronaldo left....I'm sure he's noticed my need posted above...I've gotten three others from him! Just hoping for the complete set! I am afraid I don't have any left. I sold them, traded them and gave a bunch away at my event (6-8 I think). Four were accidentally shipped to Guido in Germany so you stand a better chance with him! Some locals in Washington have them from the event. Quote

+rhodesisland Posted June 11, 2011 Posted June 11, 2011 All, I need a gem for my Netherlands coin. Anyone have a spare gem? Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 14, 2011 Posted June 14, 2011 Still hoping to find the Artist's Edition (Ronaldo) Venetian Mardi Gras Masquerade Mask geocoin! Send me an email if you have one you'd like to get rid of! Quote
+avroair Posted June 20, 2011 Author Posted June 20, 2011 avroair, what is this Summer Solstice you mentioned? And when is it expected?? The Solstice is on Tuesday FYI. Will get a handle on the time of the sale tomorrow. Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 any word on the sale time? and what site, geoswag? Quote
+Team Luvbassn Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 any word on the sale time? and what site, geoswag? I just bought 2 at geoswag!!! Quote
+avroair Posted June 21, 2011 Author Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) any word on the sale time? and what site, geoswag? They were just put up 10 minutes ago. Available here Edited June 21, 2011 by avroair Quote
+Sadie'sOwner Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Yes, I got 3! Hoping for some trade options! Quote
CW88 Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Also got a couple - from the twitter post I thought they were going up in half an hour unless I got the wrong time zone. Luckily I checked early but there are still 85 left right now. Quote
+Azure Sky Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 Guess I missed out; they're no longer on the presales page. Quote
+The Moop Along Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Guess I missed out; they're no longer on the presales page. I still see 73 pcs. right now. TMA Edited June 21, 2011 by The Moop Along Quote
+rhodesisland Posted June 21, 2011 Posted June 21, 2011 I guess it's a time zone thing, but they didn't come up until my middle of the night; fortunately I still got a few! If anyone doesn't get one, I have two for trades. Quote
+AtlantaGal Posted June 22, 2011 Posted June 22, 2011 So...when's the next one due?? GCF EU from Sepp & Berta. I believe it's pink and white. Other than that, I heard rumblings about Halloween and Christmas. Quote

Not sure what the deal is, Claudia at Sepp and Berta will be able to tell you. No other versions have been designed yet. But the autumn equinox is Sept 21st... just kidding! Quote
