Eye Spy Geocoin

Eye Spy Geocoin

To visit many interesting places – at any time, day or night – and to build a gallery of ‘great photographs’, using the traditional I-Spy technique. No need to scoff, as this geocoin has a neat twist up its sleeve.

I am a geocoin with a special characteristic – a single eye on the world. And, it’s also luminous so I can see perfectly well in the dark.

This allows me to find and record images for posterity and then to share them.

My name is derived from the famous I-Spy books on the 1950s and 1960s; and of the children’s game of the same name.

Those of a certain age and disposition will no doubt recall playing ‘I-Spy with my little eye something beginning with ….. (then, a letter of the English alphabet was chosen and the other players guessed what the secret word that had been selected).

And that past-time will also be applied with this geocoin in order to take it to the most interesting places; and that can include ‘tricks of the trade’. 

More recently, and since 2006, I-Spy books have been published by Michelin after they originally appeared in the News Chronicle and the Daily Mail.

As they say, and are ‘now available from any good bookseller’, including Amazon.

There was even a Big Chief Eye Spy, who lived in the Big Wigwam on the Green; but much of that Red Indian connection has now been dropped. However, this geocoin’s owner has no aspirations to rise to those lofty heights of being a Big Chief.

Keep a watch on this log for the latest images.

Now which is the first letter of the alphabet that we’re going to use??
