Brian created the cache to go with the the fact that cachers are the ones cleaning the section of the highway. He is the current owner of the cache, but a few of us still here in Arizona are maintaining it by proxy. Any issues that have come up regarding it, he's forwarded to me and I've promptly taken care of it.
As for a LE version, Brian just pointed out to me that perhaps we need a Limited Edition that has a more pronounced hand jesture emphasizing exactly which "finger" is being displayed. (the image was the best I could come up with showing a GPS in use.)

I think it's a great idea and the overall design looks good. There are two things that I would question (but not necessarily change)
1. At first glance I thought the "hiker-guy" on the sign had a very powerful middle finger. I thought maybe he was hiking to a new cache and noticed Tim from AZFastFeet already signing the log for the FTF. :)
2. I'm not huge on the C.I.T.O. Always cache being mentioned on the coin. Mostly because what if, God forbid, that cache became archived? My opinion on this one is pretty loose though, I have yet to find that cache so it may be very safe from archival.
I'd most likely buy one. Will there be a LE coin similar to the Arizona geocoins?

Subject: [Az-Geocaching] 2007 Arizona CITO CoinThis idea has been tossed around for a little while, since it so
strongly ties into caching and one of the more important tenets of
cachers and CITO.

Right now we're only gauging interest in the coin before proceeding with
the rest of the minting process. Please visit the URL above for more
information.
***Update***
Jake smacked me around about this a little bit late this afternoon,
because I posted the concept on the Groundspeak forums first instead of
here. Oops! I was on the GC forums for something else and the thought
came to me so I ran with it. At any rate, here's what has been designed
and the purpose right now is to gauge interest in the coin before
proceeding. The initial run figures are pretty low (250), but
additional minting can occur if demand warrants.
What do you folks think?
