+The Moop Along Posted March 8, 2007 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I am pleased to announce the Northwest Ohio Geocachers Club Geocoin. I have spent many months working with my good friend Rusty at Personal Geocoins, and here is the end result. This coin is on order, and expected to me the last week of March. I will be accepting reservations now, and invoicing them as the time gets closer. Now, for the specs. This coin is 1.75" tall - 3.5mm thickness - 2D/2D - soft enamel both sides / 1 glitter color - laser engraved. It is gc.com trackable, with it's own icon. Activation codes will be retrieved at www.geocoinclub.com. It is being minted in two finishes. 100 pcs. are being minted in antique silver (not pictured) for NWOGEO resident club members. The second finish is 250 pcs. of antique bronze, available in limited quantities outside NWO. The front side of the coin depicts our club logo, with a little snazzy glitter. The back is a sampling of local highlights around the area. Coin Front: Coin Back: Icon: Ok, you're saying, how do I get one? Two maybe? You will be able to reserve 1 or 2 per cacher ID. The cost will be $8.75, shipped, in the U.S. each. International shipping will be invoiced above the calculated postage on a per case basis, in accordance with shipping rates on usps.com. I will be holding back a small quantity of coins for lost shipments and local sales, so some emails after I get 150 pcs. reserved will be waitlisted. Please title your email "Northwest Ohio Geocoin Reservation" and email through my profile. To reserve the coins I need: GC.com nick: Real Name: Shipping address: Paypal email: Qty (1 or 2): Oh, and in case you were wondering, all proceeds from sales of this coin go to Northwest Ohio Geocachers (www.nwogeo.org) Please feel free to ask any questions or email me for more specifics. Oh, and I'm no photographer, so bear with me on the photos. Quote Link to comment

+The Moop Along Posted March 8, 2007 Author Share Posted March 8, 2007 Just got out of a meeting (damned work, always interfering with caching) , and took a look at my email. Looks like I have about half of the coins spoken for, so there are still coins left. Thanks for all the great comments, by the way. Quote Link to comment

+The Moop Along Posted March 14, 2007 Author Share Posted March 14, 2007 Coins have been slated to arrive to me the weekend of March 24th. Pending a business trip to Mexico, I'll be sending invoices next week. Thanks to everyone for their orders P.S. I never closed reservations, cuz there's still some left. Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted March 26, 2007 Author Share Posted March 26, 2007 Just a quick bump to let everyone know I didn't forget about you I've been traveling in Mexico on business, and just got home yesterday. The coins are expected to me this week, so I'll be working on invoices shortly. I'm not sending any invoices until I get confirmation the coins are airborn. And, there are still coins left to reserve, just send me a note. Thanks to all who have reserved so far. Quote Link to comment

+The Moop Along Posted March 29, 2007 Author Share Posted March 29, 2007 One thing while I sit here and watch TV. Before I send out invoices, I wanted to say that anyone who wanted to get more than 2 bronze coins each, is welcome to email me to update your reservation. About 100 coins were reserved, and I said I would set aside 150. So, I'm happy to oblige any extras you might like. Oh, and while I'm rambling. The coins were finished at the mint this week. My trip to Augusta (Yeah Masters!) will probably delay me sending invoices, but I'll try to be timely. It's refreshing to not have anyone's money yet Saves a lot of issues with torches and pitchforks (to borrow a little phrase from my auto buddy). Quote Link to comment
+The Moop Along Posted March 30, 2007 Author Share Posted March 30, 2007 Yippeee. I have a 35 lb. box, trackable at ups.com, en route. Hmmmm, wonder what that is? Seems like I should be heading home early . . . . Quote Link to comment
