...LOGGING GEOCOINS & TRACKABLES...

If you find a geocoin or travel bug, the first thing you need to do is "grab" it online so that you can add your own story to its journey.

Step 1. GET THE TRACKING NUMBER In order to log your find and "grab" the Geocoin, you first need to locate the coin's tracking number. It is normally stamped on the coin. You'll need it to locate and "grab" the coin online.

Step 2. VISIT THE GEOCOIN'S PAGE Each Geocoin has its own web page. To visit the page, either go to the cache page for the geocache where you found the coin and look for it in the inventory list, or visit the Geocoin page and use the search tool. To use the search tool, enter the tracking number in the supplied box and click the search button.

Step 3. Found it? LOG IT! Once you reach the Geocoin listing, you will want to write a log to let the owner know you found it. By logging the find you are also "grabbing" the Geocoin and putting it in your account's online inventory. This will ultimately allow you to drop the Geocoin in another cache. If the Geocoin is listed as being in a cache, you will have two options: retrieve it from the cache or grab the Geocoin. If you took it from the cache in which it is listed, choose to retrieve it. If you took the Geocoin from elsewhere, choose to grab it. Both logs require the tracking number, so keep the tracking number handy for the coin that you plan to log.

Once you have successfully grabbed or retrieved the Geocoin, it will remain in your online inventory until someone else grabs it from you or you place it in a cache.

If you are shown a Geocoin by another geocacher but do not actually trade it, you may "discover" it instead. This is a virtual log type which will not place the coin in your inventory but will keep a record of the find in your profile.

DROPPING OFF A GEOCOIN OR TRACKABLE:

Once you log that you have retrieved or grabbed a Geocoin, you can drop it into a cache. The cache listing acts as a virtual container allowing you to indicate that you have placed the Geocoin in the physical cache.

Step 1. Visit the cache listing for the cache in which you placed the Geocoin. If you already logged your find, don't panic! You can still post another log note.

Step 2. Visit the "log your visit" page by clicking the link in the upper right-hand corner. Enter some comments about your visit and the Geocoin that you traded.

Step 3. Select the Geocoins to drop off Scroll below the text box to see a list of the Geocoins in your inventory. Select the Geocoin(s)/trackable(s) you want to drop off. When you are ready, click the button to submit your log to the cache page. The Geocoin(s) will transfer from your inventory to the online cache listing.
