This coin's mission is one of Texan Geocacher goodwill. I want this coin to end up in geocacher LettyN's hands in the Netherlands. If it makes it that far, LettyN can choose to either keep it or let it continue its journey.
PLEASE do not keep the coin! It is meant to be moved and enjoyed by as many people as possible, and end up overseas!
I have debated and debated about getting and launching coins - they are cool, fun to find and move, but seem to be quite easily lost to less than honest cachers or muggles. I finally decided to trust the goodness in people - cachers in particular, and launch one of our personal coins on a journey.
This coin is being released with a purpose. I put it in a "serious" cache on purpose as well - this one is not likely to be muggled... a perfect place to begin this oddysey.
On a work trip to Ireland in January '08, I picked up a coin and brought it back, letting my son put it in his cache. It was stolen from the cache within days. I've since relocated that cache.
I feel horrible about that, so here is the deal. This coin is a gift from the Strand Family to LettyN, the owner of the stolen Geocaching Ireland coin (TB1N593.)
Help me get it to Holland. Help me restore our faith in traveling items and global cachers - let's move this coin from Texas to Europe!
