Under to new ownership of BomberJjr, this Groundspeak Volunteer Coin will be held by myself, but if ever you meet me, feel free to ask to see it for discoveries.

About This Item

In December of 2005, Groundspeak created a thank you coin for their volunteers and for the beginning of the new 2006 year, administer, gpsfun decided to make tribute geocoins of these volunteer coins for the states that he served. For that whole year, a replica the actual coin was sent from cache to cache within the chosen state. In December of 2006 gpsfun took all of the names of finders of the coin and drew one from a hat to be the new owner of the actual coin, and I, BomberJjr, was the one geocacher lucky enough to be selected.

    What a great concept for a coin. Since we were part of a caching group, we appreciated the coin for a short time and then passed it on so that others could enjoy it.

    Dropped this in a wonderful cache. I hope this coin will bring some more cachers to this wonderfully historic spot.

    I made a special trip out to Sudbury to pick this guy up. I feel honored to have been able to log it. I thank gpsfun for working so hard to make my life enjoyable with caching. I really appreciate it. I also think it is so cool what you are doing with the state coin raffles...(it will be even cooler if my name is picked 🙂)!!

    Thanks again, it will be back in the wild shortly.

    Very nice replica -- I wonder if we will get to see the real thing? We'll drop this off in a suitable cache very soon. Thanks for the new icon 😌.
