Just to make sure the motion is clear on how these will be sold.

The set of 5 will include the Limited Ed. Red Gold Metal Tag. This will be the only way to get this Limited Ed. tag. It is being produced at 1/2 the qty of the other varieties.

The 4 other colors will be available to purchase individually.

You will not need to buy “a set” in order to purchase WGA pathtags. So if you want to buy 5 green tags, you will be able to. If you want to buy 1 black one you will be able to.

Opps. Sorry I jumped the gun. I just clicked the link on a whim, and it showed the campsite fees in stock, and so I checked out quick while I had the money in paypal, before I spent it on something frivelous

It’s good to keep your priorities straight 😉

Submission 4
Submitted on 4/7/10

Front:

Back:

Design Information:
The front of the coin will be like the hand drawing with the alterations of:
– the lakes and rivers will be metal raised through the enamel, like in the computer model
– the compass rose will include a circle like in the computer and clay model
– the sun area will be textured with a clear coat as shown in the clay model
– and the writing across the state could either be raised metal through enamel, or it could be dark blue enamel like in the drawing and computer models
– the Green will be like a “Packer” green, the gold is metal not enamel
– Wisc Geo Assoc will be imprinted and not raised
– 2010 is raised metal through enamel
– the compass rose is raised above the enamel with a clear coat for “texture” in the coin

The back of the coin will most closely resemble the hand drawing with the exceptions of:
– Deet Me! will either be raised metal in the enamel or blue enamel like the drawing or computer model
– Trackable at Geocaching.com will be imprinted
– The area opposite the sun on the back will be the moon and if costs are not too great, it will be glow in the dark enamel
– The tracking number oval will be raised flat metal
– The bug spray will be raised metal to slightly curve above the enamel to create texture
– The “state bird” will more closely resemble the computer model in raised metal
– The “person” will most closely resemble the hand drawing in raised metal

If plagiarism is the sincerest form of flattery, then two WGA members should feel quite complimented. This isn’t for submission, but rather because I was bored.

Team Black Cat – Please submit your final design to geocoin2010 wi geocaching com if you’d like it considered for the contest.

Thanks!

I didn’t get to see these until I had the drawings done, but the first picture is Koomla_k’s concept for the geocoin design sculpted in clay. (Wow!)

The geocoin committee is keeping an eye on those who post interest on this thread. Please continue to post your interest in purchasing the sets.

We’re also looking at cost/labor effective ways to make these available to members outside of coming to the WGA events. Obviously if shipping is involved, there will be an additional charge in addition to the item cost.

The order has been placed.

Stay tuned!

I’d vote for a Tshirt design which matches the winning Coin design….or a close variation thereof.

FYI – The winning coin design won’t be officially selected until April 23rd (or thereabouts).
