Terry, you didn't order one of the Stonehenge medals, but I will see if I can get a hold of any extras.  If not you can have one of mine.

Being out of the loop for a while I am still catching up and would like to know how many medallions have the "Stonehenge" reverse? I am very impressed with design and if I am not getting one I do hope someone out there will have one for sale. Appreciate an answer to my question and hopefully and opportunity to purchase one from one of you Knights or Knightesses!

Good news, Daniel made 10 more of the Stonehenge medals for us, so one is yours Terry.  They will be the same price that we all paid (I will update this later with the price, I don't have the price chart on me).  The intention for these is to give those who missed the chance to have a Stonehenge medal to be able to buy one.  PM me if you would like one of the Stonehenge medals, and don't already have one ordered.  I would like to keep it to one per person who doesn't have one ordered for now.

There was also a status update in the email:

"At this point, all medals are done. I am now working on the certificates and packaging."

So we are getting pretty close to having medals in hand  ;D

It's not too late Renal, I will update the address and reply to your email sometime today. 

I will also try to gather together the information about the orders for the extra Stonehenge medals when I have time by this weekend.  I will answer the PM's as I add them to your orders if you did request one of the extra 10.

The medals have arrived, and the sorting has begun  :) :) :). My goal is to have them packaged and shipped by this weekend, but some may ship next week. There is quite a bit of work to do, and I want to make sure they are packed securely.  The silver eagle overstrikes came out amazing, the 2007 peaks out of the bottom of the strike.  Thanks for all of your hard work Daniel, there are a lot of very cool variations.

Thanks to SirStacksALot for all his work to make this so smooth a transaction!  The packaging was so expertly done that my medals would have survived any catastrophe to make it safely into my hands.  Thank you Daniel for continuing to display your talents and imagination as an artist.

The medals were beautiful!  The design, which was a culmination of suggestions by you and many of the members, was deserving of a tenth anniversary commemorative medal.  Look forward to seeing what you do for 2018.

I think enough time has passed, and pictures have been posted.   Just so everyone knows, Daniel decided to strike a copper 1p Stonehenge copper medal for each member who ordered medal.  This is in addition to the 50mm experimental copper/brass medal.  We did not order any of these, and they are not something that we paid for.  He wanted the copper stonegenge to be a surprise, and that is why they were not mentioned.  So everyone that ordered medals before they were minted were given two extra medals by Daniel that we did not pay for.   

Thank you so much for your generosity Daniel,  the 2017 anniversary medals came out amazing.

Took some time to get through the secure packaging..Thanks it arrived undamaged and all coins ordered there, plus Dan's generous 2 free medals. . One of the proof-like 1 oz had the "satin" insert/card.(Maybe someone else got the satin with the proof-like card  8)  ) Does not matter. ..... All's good Thanks

I see you already got 'em on Ebay, that was quick.

Received my medals in mail today.....WOW!  worth the wait.

Daniel did us proud as usual.


Took me 1/2 hour to undo the package and it had a stamp on it..... " IMPROPER TAPE USED"

Looks like this was done in by US post......Australian Customs would have put it thru x-ray machine and not worried.

Thanks again Daniel and Jim for all your hard work in making this anniversary special.

I'm still waiting, but everything takes longer to get to Western Australia (we say W.A. means wait awhile).
I tracked the package and it went via Dubai to Melbourne, so it just about flew over my head on it's way there. :(

The way that Jim packages his shipments, they could have just dropped it out of the plane on the way over and it would have been just fine!

It's funny they stamped the box with improper tape used.   I've been using that brown tape from Uhaul for registered packages for a couple years now.   The last time I was in the post office, the girls at the counter said they got in trouble because the tape was too shiny.   I am going to have to use a different tape next time.  They usually tape the boxes for registered mail, but I wanted tape them so I could reinforce the edges with fiber tape.  Any fiber or clear tape has to be covered by brown paper tape.

My medals were split into two shipments and both flew thru UK customs without any issues or fees to be paid.

Many thanks to Jim of doing that for me and to Dan for minting the medals for us.

I'm starting to worry about my medals now. They left Melbourne 10 days ago and still haven't arrived. :(

No worry's Steve, if your package is lost, we have some extras that can replace what is lost.  The only 2017 packages left to deliver are Yours, and Renal's.   Can you please check with you post office to see if they can locate it?  The USPS tracking scans do not all show up once the packages go overseas.

I have logged an enquiry with Auspost online. Now just have to wait and see if we get a positive outcome.
