I like the last version also... Great idea all `round. I know I'd grab up a couple.

We would like to be in on the project if there is still room. The last post of the back side is perfect. The front of the coin with the barn is what we vote for.

Very cool idea.

The last one is my favorite Paula. Nice job!

Looks like the latest design is a winner and that there are plenty of takers for the project. Cool

I see a lot happens here in one day,lol. Thanks Paula for doing all the extra touches to get the coin just right. This idea of a shared coin will attract a lot of attention and we will find the right combination to please as many as possible. One thing I do want to remind people of is this will be a very limited coin minting, for those catchers living in either WI or IL. We plan on minting about 125-130 per state, so remember if you would like to be involved and have your name on the coin you will get a coin total and this will determine your cost in the project, I'm hopping to have each person get 7-8 coins to do with them as they wish. This is not a sale to buy one or two coins.
We will hold a Geo-Event when the coins are done and if people would like they can trade for the other coin in the set, this way you really could get a limited set of two coins. I do think if you wished to trade or sell these coins you could off set the cost easily.

Some extra work has been done on the coin. Wisconsin needed some work. The coin looks good. I am in.

OK, that's great, but could you make our name a little bigger than the rest please? wink

Is there a list of who is in, out or a final list of the Wisconsin participants? Just curious if we made it in. Laughing

I'm working on the list now. It will be posted this weekend. I'm working with Paula on the list to make sure we can get as many as possible on the coin. The coin has been listed on WGA, GONIL and Wheypoints. I will use the time/date in the post to prove who gets on the coin.
More to come soon. Thanks to all who found this to be a fun idea.

Looking at Wheypoint, it shows the posts as "hours ago" and "days ago." I'm sure Cheesehead Dave can get you the actual timestamps for those posts though....

Count me in on this deal. For a Motto: On top "Home of the Cheese", on bottom "Land of the Free". Very Happy

Or was that supposed to be "Land of the FEE" ... I hate toll roads!

Boy! You don't read the boards for a couple days and you miss out on big stuff!!
Is it too late to get in on this? I like that last design a lot and would be interested in a few of thoses!
