About This Item

Excalibur Geocoin

 Excalibur was the legendary sword of King Arthur, and it was often associated with magic. By being the only one who could pull it out of a stone, Arthur proved to be the one and only true king. The back side of this geocoin shows the coat of arms of King Arthur. Additionally, it contains the names of Arthur and the other 11 knights of the Round Table: Sir Lancelot, Sir Galahad, Sir Gawaine, Sir Gareth, Sir Bors, Sir Percivale, Sir Tristan, Sir Bedivere, Sir Lamorak, Sir Kay, Sir Geraint. The story of King Arthur is said to have been written down first in Welsh poems of the 6th and 7th century. That's why this coin shall particularly travel through Wales to visit castles and castle ruins and shall be placed in castle caches there.

 Excalibur war das legendäre Schwert von König Artus, welches oft mit Magie assoziiert wurde. Indem er es als einziger aus einem Felsen herausziehen konnte, bewies Artus, daß er der wahre König war. Auf der Rückseite der Geocoin ist das Wappen des legendären König Artus dargestellt. Außerdem sind die Namen von Artus und der anderen 11 Ritter der Tafelrunde auf dem Coin zu sehen: Sir Lancelot, Sir Galahad, Sir Gawaine, Sir Gareth, Sir Bors, Sir Percivale, Sir Tristan, Sir Bedivere, Sir Lamorak, Sir Kay, Sir Geraint. Der Überlieferung nach sollen die Geschichten von König Artus zum ersten Mal im 6. oder 7. Jahrhundert in Wales aufgezeichnet worden sein. Deshalb soll diese Coin vor allem Wales bereisen und dort vor allem Caches in und an Burgen und Burgruinen aufsuchen.

Sorry but coin is not in Another St Ives Cache nor has it been there for some time.
Needs logging by owner as 'whereabouts unknown' please to remove it from the cache inventory.
Hope it reappears.
