Scottishmoney Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 Now you have figured out why we buy these bleeping coins, so that we can enter them in PCI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Art Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I have to agree. Good job GX. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedeadpoint Posted December 4, 2007 Report Share Posted December 4, 2007 I've been at CP for 1 and a half years and this is the first full PCI I've been a part of. Cant wait. I hope there are some rockin entries since we've had over a year and a half to find some. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Thanks guys - it's actually not my effort that made it possible. My effort is quite small although awfully time consuimg. People like you who have entered definately have made a major contribution as well as akdrv who has been hosting both coinpeople and omnicoin Thank you all. And yes, sorry for being awfully slow But some of the entries have been a real suprise as I did my best to avoid duplicates (missed one so far) and the clashing is quite immerse I see quite a bit of ties in the early stages.

bill Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Damn, the choices don't make it easy. Its been a long time since the last PCI, but the result is a rich pool of entries. You could have salted it with a few dogs to make the voting easy in the early rounds. As it is, virtually every set presents a difficult choice when weighting design, preservation, history, photography, and whatever other factors might influence one's vote. Good job. Thank you!

gxseries Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 bill, I agree I could have made it a bit easier but I guess the major difference in this year's PCI7 is that the choices are actually very very rich and even I have trouble identifying what could possibly be a winner in any of the rounds. I still have to list another 3 groups but forgive me as it is quite intensive and I don't want to mess up anyone's entries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gpnyc Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 This must be the largest PCI ever. Good job! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jtryka Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 Yes, very nice job, I did not enter any coins, but I will still vote! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted December 5, 2007 Report Share Posted December 5, 2007 jtryka, I'm sure you will be posting a few next year and who knows, you might dominate PCI 8 All entries have been posted and I'm sure I didn't make any hiccups along the way. I was puzzled why this took so long and a quick count of the number of coins have been totalled up as... 185 Wow! Please kindly vote (it definately will take less time than what I took) and enjoy the stunning examples of other people's coins / medals. Thank you all for participating! As well as big thanks to akdrv for hosting coinpeople and omnicoin As for ending the "first week", because I started this out late as well as there are too many posts at once, I think what is fair is that I end this on the 16th of December. I hope that is enough time for everyone to take a look. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thedeadpoint Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 Hey GX, I can't find where it's posted, but when does the first round of voting close? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
knowtracks Posted December 13, 2007 Report Share Posted December 13, 2007 GREAT job GX I too think it is the biggest Popular Coin Idol yet. Most polls only have about 20 votes, Come on I know there's more than 20 regulars here. LETS GET OUT AND VOTE !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 I would actually like to end it around this weekend but I am getting a bit busy - I have one major coursework due on the 20th so I'll see how it goes. Hopefully I can do most of it this weekend - we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gxseries Posted December 17, 2007 Report Share Posted December 17, 2007 Sorry guys, I'm a bit loaded with the last bit of my coursework and I'm killing for time at the moment I'm afraid but I'll have to come back to PCI when I finally hand in my assignment on the 20th of this month - meanwhile though, for those you haven't voted, you don't have an excuse for NOT voting! Every single vote counts and from what I have seen, there are still quite a fair bit of tie breaks and you can single handedly change the vote! Thanks guys - I'll get back to it asap when I hand in the monster coursework. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks guys - I'll get back to it asap when I hand in the monster coursework. Coursework and being a student is no excuse I finished mine up last week and am on break until the first week of January. But seriously GX, you have put together a much larger PCI than has ever been attempted before and have done a nice job with organisation etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goetzdude Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Hi All, I have been here for over two years and still don't know much about this activity. I'm holed up over in the exonumia forum and they never let me out... Am I to assume that you must have images in the CP Gallery in order to qualify for submission to this? Sorry for the ignorance, as I stated, I open the exonumia, and rarely the world coin forum, and nothing else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
banivechi Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Here are the rules: http://www.coinpeople.com/index.php?showtopic=17057 http://www.coinpeople.com/index.php?showtopic=17140 Here you can vote: http://www.coinpeople.com/index.php?showforum=221 Unfortunately there are no Goetz medals in Exonumia to vote...

gxseries Posted December 24, 2007 Report Share Posted December 24, 2007 Oh dear, if Goetzdude is to submit entries for PCI - Goetzdude will be dominating all three top positions! It's not too hard - all you need is to submit your entries in the right section and wait for weeks to see how your entries keep on going. As of such, all of my entries were brutally crushed by hot coins / exonumias this year It's a bit late this year but hopefully you will submit the entries next year around the same time - do PM me if I am still around hosting PCI Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thedeadpoint Posted February 4, 2008 Report Share Posted February 4, 2008 I'm soooooooooo sorry for asking this, but when will the next rounds be posted? I can't wait to see who wins!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
