Celtic Sun GeoCoin.

This post is for my good friend SupremeMe. He was lamenting last night that with all of the coins he has purchased (and I have taken photos of) only one of his has appeared on my site. This one is another one of his. As it would have it, it is also one of my favorites. He has good taste in geocoins.

It originally came in Gold, Silver and Copper. I would have loved to have seen the copper ones, but they have sold out. Funny thing about that...... SupremeMe bought it off ebay. Lesson learned. If you find a coin on Ebay that you like, google it and see if it is still in production or is available from the manufacture. Why duke it out on Ebay  and pay $20 for it when you can get it for $10.99 from lillysue?  The really funny bit was when he found out that he bought it from Lillysue on Ebay. :p  If you are interested in owning one as of right now there are still some available. However, if you want copper you are going to have to take your chances on Ebay.

The coin is 50mm across (2 inches) and is 3.5mm thick. It is trackable on Geocaching.com and it comes with a fancy icon.

Edited to add (March 3 09)

Total minting numbers for the Celtic Sun is 400.

The AE of each will be nickel, black nickel and foggy nickel respectively.  The entire set will have suns, stars and moons.

I have one of the Stars, but I'll do a separate post for that.
