Here's the USA coin:

I've got five of them. I planted one as a FTF treat; it was a big hit. I've never found these things, but people sure like getting those little gold coins on their profiles icon_biggrin.gif

 

Be not afraid of greatness: some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them. The rest go geocaching.

A company called Press Metal in Canada (www.pressedmetal.net) can make Geocoins. They minted the Oregon & USA Geocoins and will soon be minting the California Geocoin. However, the cost will be very steep. The tooling cost will be about $200 and there is a minimum order of 250 @ about $1.57 per Geocoin. There are a few other places that mint Geocoins, but their prices will be about the same (I already checked).

 

A cheaper alternative would be to make your own custom made GeoTokens. Go to: www.tokenfactory.com. There you can make your own doubled sided token by uploading your own graphics or use their art data base. Their is choice of a variety of colors (even glow in the dark). You can even have them individually numbered. An order of 50 custom made tokens will approximately cost between $30 to $50.

 

An even more inexpensive alternative would be to have your own custom made geocaching buttons. Go to a web site called Bubble Buttons: (http://bumblebuttons.com/index.asp). Just describe to this person what you want (with graphics and words). She is an extremely talented graphics artist. She will likely respond to you in less then a day. She then will send you a jpeg file for you to look at. I just received my custom made "San Diego" "Let's Go GeoCaching!" buttons. They look totally cool (and just released my first one in Miramar #1). The total cost for 24 buttons (including shipping) was $23.87. ITS A SUPER DEAL!
