Geocache Description:


This is one of a series of 30 caches related to popular board games past or present. In each case an Internet search will be needed to calculate the whereabouts of the cache, once you have solved the problem.

I have expanded the limits of this series here by including a card game.

This band would not be known for musical ability. On the contrary it could send alarm bells ringing if you are caught with the Crown Jewels. Diarist Samuel could have been given a hand with them if he lived in Ruritania.

Find the number of cards in the game. (XX).

Find how much token money is supplied in the game. (YYYYY)

Calculate XX+YYYYY to get ABCDE

The 35mm cache is not at the co-ordinates shown, but is in the vicinity of

North (AC+EB+A+A)  (AB+AC+A+A).(ABC+ABC+AB+AB+AB+A)

East (CBA-BBC)  (DE-AB-AC).(taxi+taxi)

You can check your answers for this puzzle on GeoChecker.com.
