looking around and saw this "mystery" coin

just wondering if anyone can tell me about it

"Mystery BINARY Geocoin"

thanks

 

It was minted by Castleman and designed by Paula of Cinemaboxers in 2007. It was to 'celebrate' the banning of a friend from the forums. They were minted for friends. Not much of a mystery.

There was a card that came with that coin that reads:

 

Congratulate yourself for standing up and speaking out.

 

You have been presented with a special mystery coin.

 

This coin is for those of you who have dealt with negativity , and stood up for yourselves.

 

This is for those of you who aren't in "the crowd." You deserve a little recognition for sayingt it like it is.

 

"This Ones For You"

 

Only being around the geocoin forum a couple of years, I don't know the actual story behind the coin. A wise and aged geocoin collector once told me that the coin was originally distributed by ol' One Finger Sam. Sam was one of the original coin manufacturers and earned his nickname when his hand got caught in a coin press, sadly leaving him with only a sadly mangled hand with one finger. The wise and aged geocoin collector continued to tell me that because of his deformity, this was the very last coin...a mystery coin, that Ol' Sam ever produced. Though it may not look like it, Ol' One Finger Sam, is actually waving goodbye to his fellow geocoin collectors...he was never to be seen or heard from again.

 

Or maybe not :rolleyes: !
