1st Run: 100 Regular and 100 Colour
2nd Run: 22 Regular and 59 Colour
3rd run so far: 10 Regular and 20 Colour (Minimum of 25 to start the run has been met!)
WHOOOO!!! Just got my tracking number as well! Should be here just in time for PAX. RILMS, thanks again for all the help with this, as well as getting it all organized. I'm assuming that you're the person that organizes it each year, and if so, then I tip my hat to you. If that's incorrect, then I still tip my hat to you. Either way, you're getting a tipped hat.
My coins came in, looking amazing as the photos. One thing that doesn't quite show in the color pictures, is that the color coins are entirely coated in enamel, apart from the edges. This actually makes it somehow look more 3d than the one you can actually touch and feel(Non-color one). It just gives it some extra depth. Something I did notice though, is that in three different spots, the enamel has leaked onto the ridges on the side. Just a little minor note, barely noticeable unless you look for it.
Both versions are beautiful though, well worth the $14.
I had a wonderful time at PAX South 2017!! I met a few people who bought coins, enjoyed talking about them on the panel and I was able to get coins into the hands of Mike, Jerry, Scott Kurtz, Katie Rice, Chris Perkins, and Patrick Rothfuss. I tweeted at Morgan Webb, but wasn't able to meet up with her.
Thank you everyone for helping with this project! Coins will still be available for purchase until Feb 13th and then they're be gone forever!!
So I thought we ordered our South coins...and turns out we never did. If anyone has an extra they are willing to part with let me know. Regular or Color, doesn't matter. TIA.
The last batch of the Challenge Coins went into production on February 14th, so they should be done some time next week and then shipped out shortly after that
If anyone is interested in selling me a PAX South 2017 Challenge Coin, please send me a private message. (I prefer color, but still interested in normal) Thanks!

Your coin is in the second run because Kiddercorp got your full address late. But you are still on the list and it will be sent to you!

"The latest batch of PAX South coins have left the factory. They are arriving to our place tomorrow.
We will get them shipped out tomorrow as well. People should have them on Saturday or Tuesday depending on where they live."
Kiddercorp told me that they ordered more then was needed for the second run, so some people who were in the third run got theirs early!
However, that messes up all of my numbers for how many we need for a third run to take place, lol.
As with last year, it has been a lot of fun running the Challenge Coin and I am glad that you all enjoy it!
I will have a pirate hat on at PAX. If you see me, come say hi!
For the most part, I will be simply partaking in the festivities
But, I will be on a panel on Friday (Level up your PAX, events not in the official schedule) that everyone should come and see
Third Run: 13/25!
Only 12 more coins to go!
Third Run: 20/25!
Only 5 more coins to go!!
These things continue to sell like hot cakes!
Both versions are beautiful though, well worth the $14.
We have met the minimum needed for the third run!
The order form will be kept open for 2 weeks after PAX to accommodate people who see the coins at PAX and then want to buy them.
