Current Goal

Originally this geocoin was to travel to every state in the USA which grows cotton. And at the end of 2008 this geocoin was to return to its "home" by being placed in any cache in the Memphis, Tennessee area.

The original geocoin "disappeared." Now the replacement geocoin simply wants to travel a lot, a remembrance of the original coin which apparently someone kept.

About This Item

The original version of this geocoin had this mission:

China buys more raw cotton fiber from the USA than does any other country. This geocoin wants to visit the cotton-growing areas in the USA.

The original geocoin went missing. The replacement geocoin wants to travel anywhere to remind people not to keep geocoins but to move them.

Happy to find this geocoin and will move it along shortly. I know what a bummer it is when they go 'missing'.

We made it a little closer to the specified landmark today. I suspected that this little Chinaman might feel at home here. So we had a meal in Chinatown, and then we dropped off our little buddy in a neighboring village. We enjoyed your company, little fella!

If you read the coins homepage, you will see why the coin is not a "china" geocoin but a representation of the original china geocoin.
