Geocache Description:

Cache is not at the listed coordinates. Final may not be winter friendly.

Three strangers from afar have come to Camelot seeking grain for the hungry inhabitants. They come baring strange currency to make their purchases. The royal treasurer has been called to make heads or tails out of it. Seems he needs our help to come up with the fair trades.

When the strange currencies are deduced, the monies are to be placed into the royal "cache" box located at N44° AB.CDE and W088° GH.IJK. The letters coordinate with the first letter of the names of the purchaser for each offering of money. The correct coordinate position needed are the number of measures of grain that can be purchased with that sum of money.

Here is the list of the purchasers, and the amounts received: Benjamin, 1 ezrom of silver. Daniel, 1 antion of gold, 2 shiblums of silver, and 3 amnors of silver. Gideon, 1 senine of gold and 1 senum of silver. Ishmael, 1 onti of silver and 1 senine of gold. Jarom, 1 antion of gold and 2 shiblums of silver. Ammon, 1 shum of gold. Enos, 1 limnah of gold and 8 leahs of silver. Kumen, 1 shum of gold and 2 shiblons of silver. Corriantumr, 2 seons of gold and 4 shiblons of silver. Helaman, 2 leahs of silver, 1 shiblum of silver, and 1 shiblon of silver.
