Washinton National Monument - Benchmark Coin

Washington_monument_benchmark_smThe Benchmark Coin Club puts out a new coin to it's subscribers every other month.  For the charter subscribers it is a great deal.  The cost per coin was right around $7.00 and the S & H was based on the old rates.  We will maintain this price for at least another few months.  We also never produce more than 525 trackable coins of any given design.

The newest release was the Washington National Monument Benchmark Coin.  I think this may be the next best looking coin after the inaugural Lewis & Clark Coin.  The coin was conceived by GEO*Trailblazer 1 and the final artwork was done by Jamie at Mad Hatter's Neverland.

The remaining coins will go up for sale at Hogwildstuff.org the week of June 17, 2007.

If you would like to Join the Benchmark Club, send an email to smoran@hogwildstuff.org with the number of coins you want and the country you want them shipped to.

Cost is $7.05 per coin

Kiana Lys Leon Birth Coin

On December 29, 2006 Kiana Lys Leon came into this world.  A granddaughter for me. A daughter for my foster son.  To memorialize her birth we created a non trackable coin.  The artwork was done by Jamie of Mad Hatter Never Never Land.  After receiving the coins we liked them so much that we did a 2nd run that is trackable.

Updated Photos on TGBear

TGBear teamed up with Suzie of Ryder3 & Better Half to create this amazingly cute design.  This is a “have to have” just for the cute factor.

There is also a companion pin that is trackable. Technically it is a coin that looks exactly like a pin.
