+wenzelbub Posted February 16, 2013 Share Posted February 16, 2013 (edited) Today I want to introduce a crazy idea which came up in a German facebook group and developed into a real geocoin. It all started when someone offered to equip some old pretzels with tracking codes and sell them on ebay. Inspired by the discussion the first „Brezen Geocoin“ Design occured as a joke and then was improved by increasing community of Pretzel Addicted. So finally we decided to put wood behind the arrow and find enough people so the coin can be produced. For those of you are able to understand German, all informations could be found here: http://mietzecacher.de/brezen And here is a translation with main facts: Some details: - trackable and own icon: - each edition has quantity of 20, 25 or 30 coins (neither less nor more) - 1.75" - 3mm thick - all editions are LE - NO remints, NO 2nd batch... Molds will be destroyed or sent to me (belongs to shipping costs) timetable: - choose your own edition till 19th Feb. 2013 - mint will check each edition and send me final quote - payment - production - mathtrade (further details later) - shipment (end of April/early May) Prices (in bracket without 19% VAT): Price per coin is 8.00€ (6.72€) and includes 10 gems + 2 colours (pantone or transparent) for front and one colour (pantone or transparent) for back. 20 Coins: 160€ (134,45€) 25 Coins: 200€ (168,07€) 30 Coins: 240€ (201,68€) Additional options have to be paid extra: glow: 0.35€ (0.30€) per coin glitter: 0.35€ (0.30€) per coin pearl: 0.55€ (0.65€) per coin antique finish: 0.85€ (0.72€) per coin two tone: 1.10€ (0.93€) per coin Example: 20 Coins (160€) with 2 glitter colours (2*20*0.35€) and antique finish (20*0,85€) is: 160€ + 14€ + 17€ = 191€ (~160.50€ w/o VAT) Shipping: Germany: 4.50€ EU: 9.50€ NON-EU: 8.00€ (For payment via paypal you have to add 3.00€ for paypal fee, sorry!) And how to get your own edition? To make sure not to have an edition made twice all already created editions could be seen here: Prezel Editions Overview 1. Choose plating: plating 2. Choose colours: pantone transparent transparent (different angle) glitter #1 glitter #2 glow pearl We recommend to use transparent color for area 3, otherwise recessed text will get lost! 3. Choose colour for gems: Gems 4. Send an email with these informations to: geocoins@mietzecacher.de Your name and delivery address (will not be published!): Quantity (20/25/30): Name of your edition: Plating: Colour for Area 1: Colour for Area 2: Colour of Gems: Colour for Area 3 (back): Attention: Mint has to check all editions and will give me feedback. If any edition is not possible to colour, we will contact you to find a solution! If you have any questions, feel free to contact us or post them here. We will try to reply as soon as possible Edited February 16, 2013 by wenzelbub Quote Link to comment
