Geocache Description:

Small container that can hold trade items. TB for FTF!

Unlike the other caches in this series, this is a quick p&g. Of course, the trick is that you must find the coordinates. Find the answers to the questions below and put the number from the box in place of the letter to find the cache. (e.g. The answer to A is 1963 so you would put a 3 in place of the A in the coordinates).
