Current Goal

This coin loves board games. It wants to play! Use the geocoin in a board game: as a player token, starting player marker, whatever use you find for it. Photographs of the coin in use are most welcome.

This coin wants to beat its owner. At the moment the coin's owner has played more than 800 different board games. After you play a game with the coin, go log it at http://www.lautapeliopas.fi/TB5AQ24/. You can also check the games the coin has already played from that page, so you can play a new game with the coin.

If you are a BoardGameGeek user, make the coin your GeekBuddy. The coin has a BGG profile here

The coin also has a geographical goal. It wants to go to Essen, Germany. It would be very happy to be in Essen during the Spiele Messe to see all the new games presented at the fair. Photo of the coin in the Spiele fair would be great!

About This Item

Finmeeple GeoCoin

My first GeoCoin. Obviously with a board game theme, as modern designer board games are my biggest passion. Meeple is a wooden little guy, made famous by the very popular Carcassonne board game in 2000. Meeple is a contraction of "my people", coined by Alison Hansel in 2000. Finmeeple is from Finland, of course, and sports the colours of the Finnish national flag.

Its long time ago, that we played boardgames regularly. Therefore it seems a huge problem for us to solve this puzzle. But why did we start solving it?

Because we retrieved the Coin "Finmeeple" at Sweden! This Coin starts at Finland and its mission is going to the fair "Spielen" at Essen. Ok, we didn´t want to keep the Coin until next october. Therefore we started to solve the puzzle. Some task we did very quickly, but at last we couldn´t solve G. Fortunately the owner of the Coin "Finmeeple" did have the right answer - thanks to Finland! Last but not least we got the clue for A as well (it took me nearly two hours....).

Unfortunately the calculation went wrong, but after recalculation twice the proof at geochecker was made!!!!

A second aim of the Coin is that the cachers play different boardgames with it. We played
1-Backgammon
2-Trans America
3-Die Siedler von Catan
4-Drunter & Drüber.

We hope that the following cachers are enjoying to play different Boardgame wiht this Coin as well!

Thanks a lot for the owner of the Spiel-series hcdv and especially: thanks a lot Finmeeple!!!!
