Current Goal

The VGC 2008 Geocoin - Kapitein Haak edition is the personal geocoin of Team Kapitein Haak and one of eight different geocoins minted during a collective project called "Vereenigde Geocoins Compagnie" (VGC) led by KarelKraak. In total four different finishings of this coin were produced: antique copper, antique gold, shiny silver andshiny gold.

All geocoins designed during the VGC 2008 project shares the same icon, prefix and design for the backside of the coins, while the front was designed by the teams themselves. An detailed describtion for the backside was given on geocoin.nl: The 17th century flag in the background and the letters VGC in front of the VGC 2008 geocoin, are respecting the VOC, a trading company from earlier days. Besides the name of this collective, the blue border has the text 'De Iurie Predea.' It is the latin title of a book by Hugo de Groot about the right of booty.

The following VGC 2008 Geocoins were minted during this project:

  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Disney Team (one version)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Franky639 (nine versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Franky639 + Team Delta123 (eight versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Kapitein Haak (four versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Riesjart & Superconny (three versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Team Delta123 (6 versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Team Sweetlake (two versions)
  • VGC 2008 Geocoin - Wandelaartjes (four versions)

I had the chance to see the Geo-Dragonchild's collection at the 2015 Geocoinfest in Eindhoven. And since he kindly sent me the tracking codes, I am even able to log them as "discovered". It was my first geocoinfest, and even though the geocoins form part of every event, the amount of geocoins at the geocoinfest was immense. There was no way to see them all, so I just strolled along the stands and looked here and there what might be interesting. Besides the coins, I also liked the sunny weather, the lab caches around and the overall atmosphere. What amused me a little bit was the beer, since it was really small (I think 0,2l).
Thanks for sharing the collection with the geocaching community & happy geocaching!

Tijdens het GeoCoinFest weekend heb ik een hele hoop gedaan, waardoor ik niet altijd voldoende tijd had om uitgebreid alles te bekijken. Ik heb echter wel van het gehele weekend erg genoten en tussen de bedrijven door met een aantal mensen gezellig kunnen kletsen 😎

En ik heb ook nog heel even de tijd gehad om de fraaie collecties die boven opgesteld lagen te bewonderen. Daar zat ook de verzameling van Geo-Dragonchild bij.
Ik ben blij dat hier toch nog even de tijd voor heb kunnen vinden. Het is namelijk toch wel bijzonder om zo veel fraaie coins bij elkaar te zien.

Gelukkig heb ik niet alle codes zelf op hoeven te schrijven, maar kon ik wat hulp krijgen 😉

Geo-Dragonchild, bedankt voor het tonen van deze fraaie verzameling en de hulp bij het discoveren.
