This is a keeper, that I will retain as a collector's item. I plan to show and share it at Geocaching events, with friends and fellow geocachers who can Discover and log it.
The Compass Rose Geocoin is one of several in my collection of Navigation Geocoins from CoinsAndPins.com. Because of my background, I have a great appreciation for and really enjoy topics related to all types of navigation and its history. I served as a flight navigator and navigation instructor in the U.S. Air Force, 1970-1980, and also taught marine navigation to civilian boaters as a volunteer in the U.S. Coast Guard Auxiliary, 1990-1996.
This is the second in my collection of five for 2009. The Compass Rose Geocoin is a tribute to compass navigation before the age of the GPS. As a navigator myself, both air and marine, I learned to depend heavily on several different types of compasses. To learn more about the compass rose and its history, visit Compass Rose History.
