About This Item

Front Side

This is the second coin in my New Mexico Geocoin series. It's dedicated to the town of Chimayo in Northcentral New Mexico. In this town and the region around it, the inhabitants still speak Spanish. This is because the region was originally settled by the Spanish who came up from Mexico centuries ago. The town is well known for its weavers. The rug in the photo comes from this town.

You can learn more about this town at http://chimayo.org/

If you have high speed internet and Windows Media Player you can see my video of New Mexico at http://www.overthebrink.com/newmexico/NewMexico.html

PLEASE do not hold on to this coin for too long! Allow other geocachers the enjoyment of discovering it and keep it moving!
