I had a secret coin summit in the park today and looky what I got Woohoo!!!
To quote FSU*Noles "All you need to know is that they exist, and you don't have one"
** Seriously -- get them from Merkman - they are wonderful!!!
Since he won't toot his own horn and announce that he made this cool coin I'll toot it for him -- these are great coins! |

I am sorry pfalstad. I will make it up to you.
E-bay does not allow me to initiate contact to you outside of E-bay on an item you have bid on. It was not my intent but I don't want to mess with my ablity to sell on E-bay geomail me and we can work it out.

LOL --- really they are a NICE coin -- thanks for giving me first peek!
I don't know if you need a blessing but we sure had a great chat today!
(hard to believe I actually got to a geocoin before the "coin king" got his paws on one) It's the end of the world as we know it!  |

lol! Just so long as someone doesn't nab them before I get out there
Any coins with the number 42 in the code would be cool, but I know it's a pain to pick them out (ala the Experience Minnesota coins at KB's event).
Now if I could just ever figure out what I want on my coin... |

Can you believe this there is not a single 42 in the entire set? No Kidding.
There is one 24 but no 42’s

Weird... not uncommon I suppose, there's a lot of number combos out there.
Frankly I was surprised to find one in the minnesota coins. |
