So, I decided to take a few pictures outside while the sun was out…

I recently received a new digital camera/camcorder as a gift, so of course I needed to step outside and take a few pictures..

So, since things have been quiet here.. a few more coins for your perusal..

Last night, I received this month’s coin-club coin, and was a bit surprised at the subject matter. The icon has been posted for a few little while now, and it looks like this:

GCC 4/10 Coin

Looking at that, My first thought was “Roast Chicken?”

But I was very wrong.

So, the title of this coin is “Cache Tick

Oh, my. I just realized I hadn’t talked about my GeoCoinClub membership before! The “Cache Tick” is actually my second monthly coin from them, the first was the March coin: “Beware the Hex” which looks like:

Now, to let the speculation on next month begin. Here’s next-month’s icon: GCC May 2010 (icon)

What we know so far about the May coin: It’s a “Geocaching 10 year anniversary” coin, but that could mean many things.  I guess we’ll just have to wait and see.

 

Here are some pictures of a few other GeoCoinClub Coins that I’ve acquired other ways, either through friends, the club store, or EBay. As usual, these are stock pictures, or pictures I’ve gotten from other sources, as I have yet to start taking my own.

So, I wasn’t going to do this…

But I can’t help it.. Really..

I received a few more coins on Thursday and Friday of last week, and several of them are really spectacular. So, I figured I’d share a few pictures. All of the photos below are stock, grabbed from the original sites that sold these coins, or other places where I found good photos.

As you can see, some of these are really spectacular. I’ve not included the backs of the Eco-Totem, but they basically are Black on Silver, with the text you see under each of the individual pictures above.
