"Dog Gone" the response to my latest "Coin" has me overwhelmed and Humbled.
My latest "Coin" is a composite of two replicas.
A CSA Button -
And a Southern Cross of Honor Medal -
It took 6 attempts to get the Die right -
the one on the bottom right gave me good results !
I finally came up with this --
Still not perfect, but pretty good.
As I said, I'm humbled by the complements, and overwhelmed by the number of requests.
So I'm posting this to handle the request.
Five Coins / $5 !
Postage runs about $2.80, the Padded envelope about 50 cents.
so that leaves $1.70.
So it's 34 cent a coin.
That covers my time, the material, paint, electricity and gas to the post office.
So If you want a few contact me at
Davtatum@AOL.com
or PM Me on Facebook.
UPDATE !
Mold # 10
I wasn't 100% happy with #6 if you look closely at the picture you will see
that the "OR" in HONOR is a bit blurry.
So I kept making molds til I got it right.
All the lettering is sharp and the CSA is even.
I'm going with # 10 !
Thanks to all the folks who like the coin.
I'm making them as fast as I can to fill the requests.
STAYING POSITIVE !
5 coins, $5? Your figures don't add up. I believe you have a typo my friend
ReplyDeleteI ain't trying to make a profit, just break even !

$1.70 divided by 5 = 34
Maybe my calculator needs new batteries !
