SoCalGeocoins Posted July 28, 2007 Share Posted July 28, 2007 (edited) This coin was inspired by cachers "The Huskies" We have started the production of their personal coin for them and are helping them promote their coin. About the coin from "The Huskies": The one side of the coin is of a sunset taken in Cape Town (capital of South Africa) with Table Mountain in the background. The other side is of our 5 huskies - (left to right) Saskia, Pinky, Shamu, Shadow & Billy lying in the front. Shadow had this litter 3 years ago of which we only sold 2 pups and decided that we would keep the other 4. They are wonderful family pets and we have drawn much attention with them. Taking them all out at once can be the joke as they all want to be the main attraction and Shamu is the Alpha male, he takes no nonsense. We don't get any surface snow here so we have do to with sand and with their coats that is no fun either. Summer is South Africa does get extremely hot and therefore we have a swimming pool and our huskies love it too. Shadow is the madame of the pool, she is always in the water no matter what time of day or night it might be. When we do go away we alway arrange for a homesitter especially to come to look after the huskies as they are our pride and joy. They are our extended family and live with us Somerset West about 25 miles from Cape Town.

+GlobalRat Posted July 29, 2007 Share Posted July 29, 2007 About the coin from "The Huskies": The one side of the coin is of a sunset taken in Cape Town (capital of South Africa) with Table Mountain in the background. Nice coin, well done to the Huskies. While many living in Cape Town think it is the capital of the world they do have the right....sometimes have to correct the piece of incorrect information as folk believe the strangest things about our country. South Africa's Executive Capital is Pretoria , and this is the country's capital. It does however have two more official capitals, Cape Town is the legislative capital and Bloemfontein is the judicial capital. Quote Link to comment
