Geocache Description:

Have a pocketful of change from you last trip overseas? Or perhaps you are planning a trip and need some of the local currency. Well come on down to this small cache and swap some foreign coins.

This cache is located in the Rowands Pond Wildlife Management Area which is located off of Higgins Avenue in Clementon, NJ.  This is a small WMA, consisting of a stocked trout pond, some woods and a parking lot.  You can take a nice stroll around the pond and observe the ducks and geese in the area. 

The cache is a small rubber maid container with a log book and a handful of foreign coins. Bring your own pen. Feel free to swap and trade whatever coins you have.  The cache starts off with a selection of coins from a 5 lb sack of unsorted foreign coins from Ebay - plenty more after these provided the cache does not get muggled.  Be careful as fishermen frequent this pond and they will likely observe you when you go looking for the cache and they may go over to see what all the excitement is about after you leave!
