I recently ran across a couple of 1st Edition geocoins that I had filed away and forgotten about. I thought that it would be good to use one to help Rob and his wife cover some bills. As you may know Rob is recovering from a very serious accident and can use our help financially.
This may be your last chance to own one of these high quality, 1st Edition Fiero Geocoins. If you would like to help Rob and get something in return please reply in this thread with your offer. I will also accept pm's with offers if you wish to remain anonymous. Bidding will close at 8:00pm central time on Friday, May 7.
Your generosity is appreciated. Every cent will go to Rob. I will cover the cost of the coin/shipping and will ship it to anywhere in the world. Paypal only please. I will send a pm to confirm who the winning bidder is as well as where to send your payment.
I will start the bidding at $25. If I am the only bidder I will send the money to him myself and keep the coin.
Edit: To show you what the front of the coin looks like I am borrowing cornersonrails photo of his coins. I don't think he will mind me using it. (Quantity 1 is up for auction the rest are pretty much spoken for and difficult to obtain).
Also, if you bought any edition of geocoin from me and would would like to rate me as a seller please feel free to do so. ------------------ Central Iowa Fieros

Drop by also so I could leave you my feedback for all the hard work you did for us and also the wonderful coins I own (the whole collection and more ) Thanks Kenton
$55....but if I don't win the bid, I will probably be donating that anyway.
Thank you! I am sure that Rob and Gail will appreciate any amount that you could give. I have never regretted helped others. Giving blesses both people.

This auction has already exceeded my expectations. Thanks to all of you who have placed bids.
I know that money is tight for a lot of us so I will make the payoff even better for the highest bidder by including a mystery gift IF the final bid exceeds one hundred and fifty dollars. There will be no clues and no confirmation or denials if you attempt to guess what it is. Don't bother trying. You will find out what it is if you win it. What I will say is that it is probably more desirable than the original thing being offered. You will get both.
Only give what you can afford. Thanks for bidding.

Please only bid if you intend to win the auction. We are closing in on the end and the bids are a lot higher than I thought they would be. The next bid could take it.
With that said, I would like to remind everyone that if it hits $150 I will give the winner a mystery gift as well.

Overnight I have received two anonymous bids. The highest was for $150. The auction has ended. I would like to thank everyone who placed a bid.
I am waiting for pm's from two people.
Even though the auction has ended you can still help Rob and Gail with a donation of any amount. This is the paypal address that has been set up for them. etfc159@yahoo.com
Edit: Packages will be sent in the mail tomorrow. Pm's sent. Thanks to all who have participated.
