Here it is...the final draft! Look for the order form to arrive on the forum within the next couple of days. You will be able to fill it out on line and either email or print and snail mail it to me.

I like it!

What did we decide on the edging?

Are they going to be silver and not gold even though CA is the golden state?

The state IS gold! Boy, you can't please everyone.

make the bridge smaller

bring the redwoods onto the state.

color the state gold - little less defined texture.

no fancy edge

recess the words on the circle back and front with color(trust me it looks cool)

might go to a silver finish - skip the fancy edge (sorry folks there was a tie and my staff at work voted to break it)

Yup.

May 18, 2005

The coin is beautiful! Thank you everyone for all of the hard work on this. I'm ready to order as soon as the order form shows up!

May 18, 2005

That looks great! I want some!

Yup, I'm in for 10 if available, would be willing to settle for 5.

Put me on the list.......

The ordering proces has begun. check out the following web pages for more info about the coins and how to order.

Ordering info

Order Form .pdf

NOTE: FOR THOSE PICKING UP THEIR COINS IN SAN DIEGO, NO SHIPPING IS REQUIRED!! I STILL HAVE TO EDIT THE .PDF TO REFLECT THIS

THERE ARE TWO PICKUPS THAT WILL BE SCHEDULED

SAN DIEGO AND SACRAMENTO

May 25, 2005

Final Draft and is heading to production. Decided to skip having them make a sample coin because it would delay the final product by 2-3 weeks. ETA from the company is 4 - 6 weeks.

If orders haven't been placed, how do you know how many to order?

May 25, 2005

If orders haven't been placed, how do you know how many to order?

sucking up the initial cost at the moment. with the first coin, we ended up ordering 1000 instead of 500 (the minimum) 1000 is my minimum to keep the price at $3.00. If there are more that 1000 coins ordered...i will increase the order from the manufacturer.

PS: if you are wanting the Sacramento pick-up.....pay for shipping when you order....then if the pickup happens i will refund most if not all of your shipping.

May 25, 2005

Thanks for the nod on the web page, Dillon Gang! I'm glad I could help get this great looking coin into the hands of geocachers everywhere. Say, does that mean that I get a low numbered coin when I order mine?

May 25, 2005

Just a quick dumb question. If we submit our orders by email, how should we pay for them? I am planning to send a check and a copy of the order form. Is the e-mail just to let you know that an order is coming?

Thanks

Do those of us listed under "folks that said stuff in the forums" get a low number too? :blink: And if not what about those of us that are then sending bribes? :lol:

& what are the chances of the Sacramento dropoff?

Any additional info?

Edited May 26, 2005 by Marcie/Eric

May 26, 2005

won't know if there will be a dropoff in sacramento until the order forms all come in and indicate an interest in having one.

One Paypal Option is up and running.....

shipping is automatically calculated and added to your purchase
2.9% is calculated and added to the total purchase to help offset the Paypal charges to me
San Diego pick-up will have their shipping refunded or you can wait for another option that you can control the amount paid
Insurance is not available on this option

Edited May 26, 2005 by The Dillon Gang

May 27, 2005

approximately 354 coins left unspoken for

Order form data for one sent via e-mail on the 25th, waiting for PayPal to pay for it. Let me know if that's a problem and I can drop a check in the mail or whatever works for you

Hi!

I just saw these while browsing the forums, and I placed an order through PayPal. Hopefully there were still coins available for purchase, and I did everything correctly.
