+The_Geomonkeys Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 After reading a few posts about the problems with coins on ebay being potentially misrepresented and noobs (like me) who don’t know where to source coins, I thought this thread may be a good idea. I’m sure that I don’t have every site that sells geocoins on this list and if I haven’t listed one of your favorites it wasn’t for a lack of trying (it was completely for a lack of knowledge). After paying attention to this forum I have found the best way to get any new coin is to watch the forum like a hawk and get the pre-order/reservation in for the coins before they disappear. This is especially true of limited editions and other beautiful things that may never hit the mass market. But for those of us newer to the coin game these are some sites where coins can be found to fill out our collections. Where to buy coins on-line (In no particular order): http://www.geocoindesign.com/store/ http://www.thecachingplace.com/index.htm http://www.thecachingplace.com/index.htm http://www.thecachingplace.com/index.htm http://www.usageocoins.com/index.htm http://www.geocoinstore.com/ http://www.coinsandpins.com/ http://www.geocoinshop.com/store/ http://www.crakephoto.com/store/geocoins.html http://www.hogwildstuff.org/ http://www.geoswag.com http://www.coinswag.com/ Any other suggestions or resources out there?

+The_Geomonkeys Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 also some coins at http://www.socalgeocoins.com (so modest of you not to shamelessly self promote, but you do have some nice coins available). I know that there is a list of manufactures who often sell coins but trying to compile a list of places that also sell but may not mint... Quote Link to comment
+tadpole379 Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 www.cachebug.com is a site keeps an up-to date running list of many of the new coins being released, and where they can be purchased. Quote Link to comment

+Map Monkey Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 You really should include Ebay on your list of providers as there can be some realistically priced geocoins there, sometimes under an ebay storefront. To single out one provider is unacceptable if you are asking the question: "Where to buy coins on-line (In no particular order):" My contribution is: http://www.ebay.com mm Quote Link to comment
+The_Geomonkeys Posted August 24, 2007 Author Share Posted August 24, 2007 You really should include Ebay on your list of providers as there can be some realistically priced geocoins there, sometimes under an ebay storefront. To single out one provider is unacceptable if you are asking the question: "Where to buy coins on-line (In no particular order):" Not intentionally ruling out ebay. But I don't see them as a coin provider but a venue where you may or may not get what you think you are buying. This stems from another thread in which there was quite the heated discussion about coins being listed as VHTF or LE when in fact they were neither. Also thanks to the poster who added the link to dorkfish, I had them on the list but my copy and paste job was not done properly and in inadvertently had multiple links to the caching place there instead. Another one to add: http://tntgeocoins.com/ Quote Link to comment
+LadyBee4T Posted August 24, 2007 Share Posted August 24, 2007 Excellent thread! I have taken the companies listed above and added them to the OP list to make it easier to find. I have taken out the ones that are manufacturers only and only listed the where you can actually buy coins as listed in the previous posts. Ebay is listed at the bottom as some may not agree but it is a way to obtain coins especially when you are first starting to collect and have nothing to offer as a trade. http://www.dorkfishcoins.com www.landsharkz.ca www.americancacher.com http://www.socalgeocoins.com http://www.castlecoinsandpins.com http://www.geocoindesign.com/store/index.php http://www.thecachingplace.com/index.htm http://www.usageocoins.com/index.htm http://www.geocoinstore.com/ http://www.coinsandpins.com/ http://www.geocoinshop.com/store/ http://www.crakephoto.com/store/geocoins.html http://www.hogwildstuff.org/ http://www.geoswag.com http://www.coinswag.com/ http://tntgeocoins.com/ www.oakcoins.com www.chqualitycoins.com www.coinforce.com www.geocoins.nl/ www.geocoinshop.de www.my-geocoin.com (Europe only) www.coinable.com www.coinsforanything.com www.geocachingshop.de www.geocachingshop.com www.coinswag.com www.cachezone.de www.urbancacher.com www.aetoys.com www.3geeks.ca www.geocoins.net http://www.ebay.com Quote Link to comment

+The_Geomonkeys Posted August 25, 2007 Author Share Posted August 25, 2007 Sweet! the list just gets longer and longer and as more sites get added that I have never been to before I foresee my bank account getting smaller and smaller! Quote Link to comment
