    There are a few nice designs posted in the “idea” thread. Take a look and post your comments.

    Even if you only have a concept, feel free to post it. I’m sure one of the more artistic members would be happy to turn your idea into a design.

    Please keep the ideas coming. There have been some very good entries so far, but we’d love to see many more. Get those pens, pencils and crayons moving!!! 😀

    Good luck to everyone.

      Unless I’ve missed it somewhere else, I have not seen how the winning design (or when) will be chosen.

      My opinion is that submission 2 from March 29th is an awesome design that illustrates all the counties in Wisconsin to geocache in with recreational activities on the back – and is a real collectable type design. I couldn’t imagine a more popular coin given the way some collect them.

      Also, I think the coin would be even more appealing with a band at the bottom as in Submission 3 for the WGA logo keeping the front clean with only the counties on it… but again, if designs are final & a matter of selecting one – #2 would be my pick to buy a few of. 😀

      The Referendum to vote for your favorite design is now available!

      http://wi-geocaching.com/modules.php?name=Referendums

      The voting period will be open until 11:59pm on May 4th.

      These design concepts were submitted by WGA members and friends over the past 2 months.

      ** When voting, keep in mind that most of these are concepts, not finished art. Vote for the concept you like best.

      The 2010 Geocoin Committee will work with the chosen coin vendor to finalize the winning design concept for minting.

      I think that there should be a separate sticky announcement for this. I never saw it until it was posted in the Thread Stealer’s. Coin Vote Now Open!

      There will be a front page news item soon to grab everyone’s attention.
