I
am currently fulfilling a challenge to create a series of new
caches...one Traditional, one Letterbox hybrid, one Multi,
and this Mystery.
Why am I doing this? I entered a contest on the forum to try
and win a new coin. I had to come up with some task to do to
try and win. I won and this is my challenge. My prize
for doing this? This
coin. I think it was worth it!
This is a puzzle cache, the cache is not at the posted coordinates
but is within 2.3 miles of them.
I am
constantly amazed at the variety that exists in geocoins.
There are endless design, size, shape, and material options to
consider when making a geocoin and frequently people choose to
offer their coins in more than one metal for the serious
collector. Periodically, I like to reorganize my collection
by coin genre and within that by designs or metals. I have
reached the conclusion that I have too many geocoins. Here is
my breakdown by category and metal:
Personal Geocoins (made as sig items for other cachers)
One Aluminum, six Antique Copper, eight Antique Gold, nine Antique
Silver, three Bright Copper, seven Bright Gold, four Bright Silver,
thirty-one Nickel, and ten Platinum plated.
Coin
Club Geocoins
One Aluminum, one Antique Gold, three Antique Silver, two Bright
Copper, two Bright Gold, six Nickel, four Tin, and one
Zinc.
Event

One Aluminum, one Chromium (I'd swear it was Nickel, but they
labeled it as Chromium), and three Nickel.
Regional and State Coins
Three Aluminum, three Antique Silver, one Bright Silver, one
Copper, two Gold, two Nickel, and two Tin.
Miscellaneous Geocoins
Two Aluminum and one Copper.
