00823 1140_OKIC 2007 Geocoin Antique Bronze

There is currently no goal for this item.

Mid to large size coin with heft. 1.75 inches 3.5 mm thick antique bronze.  Available in other metal colors. Unusual shape in that the rim has small ribs. The front of this coin has nice metal texture and different types of bold 3-D work. The center medallion shows the states of Indiana, Kentucky and Ohio with a circle where the three state touch. These are in commercial enamel colors. The outer medallion has a compass with nice matte yellow enamel. There is a change of 3-D work to define the medallion and rim. The rim has script in enamel that reads "Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana Cachers". The first letter of each state name is done in the same color as the state enamel. The reverse has no enamel work and uses relief, etching and raised 3-D work. The medallion shows a river boat with steam stacks and a city sky line. The detail is excellent and can be better appreciated with a magnifying glass. The rim has script that reads "OKIC 2007 Home of the Tall Stacks". The ribs appear to represent a ships wheel. Very nice coin.

Info on the coin:  Lots of great detail in this 3D coin. The 2007 Geocoin for the Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana Geocachers (OKIC) features a great 3D view of Cincinnati featuring a steam boat (Tall Stacks).
