I have been awake since 3:10am and traveled through three time zones today but a promise is a promise. It is 12:43am and I just finished packaging all of the coins. They are ready to go and will be in the mail tomorrow morning. Let me know when you receive them. I would like to keep track of who has received them.
I would like to thank everyone who was part of the 4th Edition Geocoin Project. I appreciate your trust and patience. I would like to say a special thank you to those of you who have been with me since the 1st Edition coin. Without pooling our money amd talents, projects like this would not exist. Once again we have created something incredible.
Have a great weekend. Go out and do something cool. If you are in Iowa or northern Missouri, I would like to invite you to stop by our Fiero meet on Sunday just west of Lucas Iowa at LAMBO's place. I don't know how many people or cars will be there but all of the versions of Fiero geocoins in existance except for possibly one will be there. - Even the prototypes that I had made as a color pallet for designing future coins.

They are now on their way to you via the US Postal Service and the postal services of Canada and the United Kingdom. The first should begin arriving on Monday. Please post here when they do so that I can keep track of who has them.
You should have seen the line behind me at the Post Office. LOL They HATED me.

If anyone has a lower case L on your coin please send me a photo of the tracking numbers. I need to contact the manufacturer about an engraving and I would like to show them the error that they made.
I am glad that so many of them have already arrived. I am even more happy that you are satisfied with them.

I have a lower case "L" in mine .... but its not here yet
Of course. For those who haven't done so, this is how to activate your coins. If you ordered one with a tracking number you may wish to activate it to make it trackable. Become a member of www.geocaching.com (It is free). Then click the Trackable Items link on the left side of the homepage and follow the directions. It will ask you for your tracking number and activation code that is included in your order. From there you can customize your coin's web page.
Thanks for the photo with the L. There is an engraving issue on one coin that needs fixed. I needed that photo to show that the one in question had the wrong small L.

I am glad that you are happy with the resolution. I will provide a better one when I am able.
I am finding out that there have been a few production and post-production problems with this run of coins. Please let me know if you are unsatisfied in any way with your order, even minute things.

I know what you mean about catching it hte next time. I just BARELY made it in this time. I am on the forums a lot, but can not read every thread as fast as they pop-up and all. I caught this thread on like the 8th day, and ordering was almost closed already!
Can you PM or email the ones that have ordered coins from you when you do another run?

I will create a pm list of those of you interested in the next run. It will be a while before we do it again. I have had issues with the postal service and the manufacturer that I have not had to deal with in past orders.
It will be difficult to come up with a color scheme that is better than the ones we have already done. If I can't at least match previous orders I won't do it. I don't even know what color the next one should be but I am open to suggestions. I could do an all red one that that I think would be amazing but I would like to try something other than colors we have already done.
PK, you are welcome. I like being an exporter. Cheers

Hmm. Haven't seen mine yet. I hope Mr. Postman (well, Ms. Postwoman) didn't lose mine.
It is safe on my shelf. I sent you a pm a couple of weeks ago. I need a current mailing address for you. Your's is the last one that I need to send out. The earliest I can mail it is Monday. I am traveling this week. Send me a pm please.

Hulki, your coins are in the mail. Is there anyone else who has not received their coins? I am trying to wrap this order up. It will be a while before I do it again.
