+LewisClan77 Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Very cool. I wish I could have been there today, but it just wasn't in the cards/budget. Quote Link to comment
+Team kizb Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 Very cool. Is there a story about these frames? Quote Link to comment
+Tennessee Jed Posted July 3, 2011 Share Posted July 3, 2011 (edited) Very cool. Is there a story about these frames? The coin on the left is a volunteer coin. The one in the middle is black cherry. The one on the right is the regular event coin. Edited July 3, 2011 by Tennessee Jed Quote Link to comment
+drneal Posted July 4, 2011 Share Posted July 4, 2011 Very cool. Is there a story about these frames? the frames were made by Elkwood Arts, located in Ridgway, PA. If you've seen any of my wooden sig itmes, they were all made there...a great group. ILYK just a side note, there is a 2nd version of the keystone shaped coin that was provided to all of the crew of GW9...same coin, but in copper Quote Link to comment

+Tennessee Jed Posted July 6, 2011 Share Posted July 6, 2011 Gorgeous. What a beautiful keepsake. They may be available somewhere. There seemed to be many left as they cost $75.00 Quote Link to comment

+kcepenn Posted July 14, 2011 Share Posted July 14, 2011 The frames and the wooden coin are both made with local (PA) hardwoods: Black Cherry and Sugar Maple at a local sheltered workshop in Ridgeway PA, about 40 miles from the GWIX venue.The plaque is two sided: you can flip it over to see the other side of the coins without taking them out. There were two versions of the keystone coin. The one in the plaque is unique to the plaque only and there were only 215 made. We only had 215 of the wooden ones made, too. (The volunteer coin is the same design but has a different finish.) The round metal coin is the official coin that most people got. All three coins are trackable. And believe it or not there are still a few available for sale! If you are interested contact me at my geocaching profile. --kcepenn Quote Link to comment

There seemed to be many left as they cost $75.00 Really?! $75 is nothing for the craftsmenship that it appears went into this piece. We have art festivals all summer long here and a piece like that would be almost $200 (assuming the coins were each $10-15 a piece plus the frame) Quote Link to comment
