Got Cache? Series - Dime Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

WGA2: I noticed that this cache has remained temporarily disabled for a period of time well in excess of the period of ‘a few weeks’ as contemplated by the cache guidelines published on Geocaching.com. For now, I'm temporarily archiving this to keep it from continually showing up in search lists. Just contact me at the below e-mail address when you have the cache repaired, and assuming it still meets the guidelines, we'll be happy to unarchive it.

If you haven’t done so already, please pick up any remaining cache bits as soon as possible.

I want to thank you for the time that you have taken to contribute to geocaching in the past.

Thanks for your understanding,

Geocache Description:


The coordinates given are not the actual coordinates! An Internet search is required to compute the actual coordinates.

This cache is a 35mm film canister and is located in a city park. To get the actual coordinates, first subtract 1155 from the year that Franklin D. Roosevelt first appeared on the dime to get N 44 31.XXX. Then subtract 1879 from the year that silver was eliminated from a dime's composition to get W 88 01.0XX.

Make sure you have some spare change with you when you are out today. The original contents are a logbook, pencil, and a 2006 dime. If you have a dime that dates earlier than the coin that is in the container, you may exchange the newer coin with the older one. When you replace the coin in the container, please include in your log entry what the year is of the coin you exchanged.
