Cachosphere geocoins

[+Bhob]

I seek information on the Cachosphere geocoin

 

as in, what versions/metals/variants/finishes/etc have been produced

 

I am aware of a "version one" with purple enamel and a silvery metal finish

and a "version two" with a blue enamel and a golden metal finish

(there also appears to be a limited edition that came out at about the same time as the v1

indications are that it has a day-glow green enamel and a black finish on the metal)

 

I believe that these were produced and sold by geocoinstore.com

the v1 and v2 can be seen in the geocoin museum on that website

 

I have seen indications that there may be one with a copper metal finish

but I have not seen any convincing evidence that such a geocoin exists

 

are there three editions of this geocoin ?

or four ?

or maybe more ?

any other insights (or even trivia) would be of interest to me

 

Thanks !

Have you tried using the 'Contact Us' link on their site to ask them directly ??

 

They may be quite willing to give you: "any other insights (or even trivia) would be of interest to ..." -you- ...

 

Their answer might even be more 'convincing evidence' than speculation ...

I wonder about the results to this question. Did you contact the minter as suggested?

 

But I'm a little bit confused and curious about your explanations:

 

It appears, that on 2014-03-01 (three days before this thread opened) you discovered a coin named Cachosphere Geocoin (black) - but you didn't mention it here as a version, neither in your "aware" list nor in your "indication" list. I don't understand this.

 

Since you saw this "black" version: Does "black" refer to black nickel or to black enamel on gold? cointracking.com lists a LE Black Nickel, the picture shows yellow enamel.

 

It appears that you also discovered a V2 coin named "Cachosphere Geocoin (bronze)" (owned by the same person as the black one). But the V2 coin is advertized by geocoinstore as being Satin Gold. If it is bronze instead of satin gold, you knew about yet another version already, but didn't mention it either.

 

Next to that I got the impression from pictures (google search) that there are two shades of gold on the blue enamel V2 coins. Maybe a remint with slightly different metal processing? And I saw somewhere else an image of black enamel on gold, but it might have been just a darkish picture of a V2 coin.

 

I didn't find any hints referring to other editions. What were your indications? But maybe you already have answers to share. Thanks.
