Coin Stats and Info
The Geocoin Nerds is a group geocoin project based on the Nerds candy creatures.
The first minting of Nerds was delivered late November of 2007.
The second minting of nerds was delivered in April of 2008, and it included some v1 coins as well as a new v2 trackable Nerd.
Group members were able to personalize their order of nerds with a color of their choice as well as personalized engraving/numbering.
The Geocoin Nerds Yahoo Group
A yahoo group was set up to manage the Nerds Group Project. Members could ask questions, sign up for the project, see pictures
of the artwork and samples, choose colors, and view the database of coin stats for each group member. Updates and deadlines
were also announced through the yahoo group.

Charity Auction
Many members of the 1st Nerds group chose to donate one or more of their Geocoin Nerds coins to a charity auction which was
listed on Ebay. A total of 36 Nerds were included in the charity auction which raised $132.50 to be donated to Tracy and Tank
of TnT. A few days before Christmas of 2007, Tank suffered a stroke and has been in a coma ever since. Many geocachers pulled
together to raise money for TnT to help them with the medical expenses associated with Tank's condition. A second auction
was set up for the v2 nerds. Below are photos of the nerds included in these auctions.
Thank you to everyone who placed bids on the Charity Auctions!
