@Spruce: Thanks, I totally forgot about Slovkia :P Oops. Well I have registered on their forum too but it won't go through until after Rockethub's deadline is over. I will still try and see if anyone is interested through Paypal :) need 18 more people to get involved :) not so many now, this geocoin is going to happen!!

Ok, so Rockethub's deadline has passed and we raised an amazing $733 (after fees). Thanks to everyone that has helped out with this project. I am now collecting all the contact info from everyone that fueled through Rockethub and I will be sending an email to you all. We are still a bit short of what is needed to get this made so I will continue through Paypal to collect the rest :) Here is my paypal account: beeswax.ou@gmail.com Thanks again to you all and I will keep you updated.

Just to be clear, the amount in my last post is the amount raised through rockethub only. Altogether I have raised €1102 of the €1300 needed :)

Sorry I haven't posted in the last week or so:) It has been a crazy week, as I have been trying to get on top of packaging and posting my Halloween pathtags to everyone that bought from me :)
Here is where I stand at this moment: I have been informed that the money transfer from Rockethub is on its way and should be in my account this week. So far the amount raised has not changed since my last post but I have got the project on another Geocaching blog : http://www.geocachin...-crowdfunding/
This time a Swiss/German one, so I hope this will bring in a few more interested people :)

We are still short so anyone else that would like to get their hands on this unique Geocoin post here or PM me at beeswax.ou@gmail.com.

Thanks to everyone.

Hi All, just a quick update for you. It's all worked out with the Geocoin company and they are ready to start a sample on my say so. Unfortunately the exchange rate from € to $ changed and it put an extra €130 on to the bill. So I want to finish a couple of my jobs over the next week or so and will put the money in myself. I just don't like giving the go ahead to something without having all the money in hand. Can't wait!! There are still coins available if anyone wants some :)

Here is the final mint art for the First Estonian Geocoin:

Vložený obrázek

Coin stats:

dimensions: 45mm
thickness: 3mm
features: multilevel design
icon: yes
tracking: geocaching.com
finishes: Antique Silver

Price is €12 each + postage (€4.50 for up to 5 coins includes track & trace)

The coin will be minted by Geocoinland in the Czech Republic and all details have been arranged.
I used the crowdfunding site to raise the money to have this made because without it this Geocoin would never get made.
As well as raising money here in Estonia and international sales and donations.
From the total amount needed to make this I am still short approximately €200.
Anyone that would like this Geocoin can contact me at this email: jp_barr@hotmail.com
Payment can be made through paypal, this is my paypal account: beeswax.ou@gmail.com

You can also keep up to date with how this is progressing here: http://www.facebook.com/JPs.Geocoins

The Geocoin company is ready to start making samples as soon as I give the go ahead which I am hoping to do before Christmas which means the coin will be available in January-February.

Hi all, Does anyone know Ludmila Kovarova? I do not know her GC nick. She funded the project through Rockethub but any email I send to her email address gets sent back to me :( I do not like the idea of someone giving money for a geocoin and not getting it. Any help to contact her would be a big help Thanks Jon-Paul

Well you have all been waiting for it and here it is the first photo of the First Estonian Geocoin sample. I have made one small change, the stalk of the flower will have no colour. But other than that mass production starts today. Woohoo!Vložený obrázek

Taky už ho mám doma, je parádní. Až najdu nějakou pěknou keš, pomaže do světa :-) Jen nevím, co s tím pathtagem, neznám nikoho, kdo to sbírá. Asi to hodím do keše jen tak, třeba to nějaký sběratel najde.

Máš několik možností:
- dát/vyměnit s někým, kdo je sbírá
- nechat si (a zalogovat na www.pathtags.com)
- přivěsit trackovací číslo a vyslat do světa jako putovní
- poslat jen tak do svěa, někdo jej najde a udělá něco z těchto variant
