A coin by Swedish cacher Mousekakat and American Cacher CastleMan. Released 2nd Feb 2008.
CastleMan:
These
great looking geocoins were the concept of Naomi “Mousekakat” of
Sweden. She and I worked together to come up with the final design and
I think they look very nice. These Geocoins are 1.75” x 3.5mm,
imitation hard enamel, trackable with unique icons. These are all
limited and WILL NOT be re-minted.
MINTING:
Antique Gold: 120 minted
Antique Copper: 120 minted
Antique Nickel: 60 minted
XLE Gold “Mousekakat Edition”: 35 minted
Here is Naomi’s story. The inspiration of the coins:
A little more than 8 years ago I moved to Sweden from Texas. Everything
was so different here and so old and ancient. I have a love of history
and was just amazed to see these things, runestones, churches, even
paths through the forest that were hundreds upon hundreds of years old.
Micke, my husband, always enjoyed letting me know about how the Vikings
(my high school mascot, no less) were the first to discover North
America. I received my dual Swedish citizenship about 4 years old and
am proud of it. This coin is my way of showing my pride in my adopted
country and the country of my children and husband! I’ve found my own
little piece of Heaven… or is that Valhalla, here in Sweden!
