After spending several years in Sweden, this geocoin has a special meaning to me! Especially after I had the same experience during my third stay in Sweden. Together with Karl_XI and Reugenspass.eu we came from a stash hunt back. Suddenly and without any warning, we had our close encounter of the moose kind 
We missed the moose by centimeters and we all were shocked for a moment. Luckily nobody got hurt and honestly once in a lifetime is enough! During the geocoinfest in Ulm, Germany, I met by luck Dofferson himself and had a nice cheat about Sweden and mooses!
The Close Encounters of the Moose Kind Geocoin has been designed by Dofferson. The idea for this geocoin was born, while spending his holiday in Sweden. He took three trips to Sweden without seeing a moose and on his fourth trip one jumped in front of his car (no person or moose got hurt). It suddenly jumped in front of his car and all three (his wife, himselve and the moose) had a "WTF ?" moment. Being a true geocoin addict the first thing that came into his mind was: "hmmm would be a nice geocoin idea". After some creatives moment at his computer the design for the geocoin was born. The first artwork by Dofferson is shown below
The front side shows a moose head in black nickel for the outline and the shadow. The highlight parts are colored in yellow enemal. The backside is of multi layer design and shows a moose that is crossing a road with the text "close encounters of the moose kinds" in the same font as the science fiction movie "third kind". The deepest level (road and sky) is in glow. The final artwork for the geocoin is shown below.

We wisten niet wat ons te wachten stond tijdens deze Mega Geocoinfest in Eindhoven, het is tenslotte ons eerste Mega event. Maar dat het zo druk zou zijn en dat we zoveel coins/tbs hebben kunnen bewonderen dat is ongelofelijk. Met name de vitrines op de bovenste etage wat een collectie. Daar kun je uren naar kijken, de 1e is nog mooier dan de andere. Wat super fijn dat we deze kunnen discoveren.
Bedankt hiervoor! 😉
Groet Team MoJo-13

Auf dem Geocoinfest Europe 2015 in Eindhoven hat der Owner seine tolle Sammlung von sehr schönen Geocoins ausgestellt. Es hat schon eine Weile gedauert, bis ich alle durchgeschaut hatte. Eine dieser schönen Coins war diese hier.
Vielen Dank für's Zeigen!

Endlich mal eine Sammlung die man vor Ort besichtigen konnte. Nicht einfach nur der Austausch von Zetteln mit Zugangscodes sondern eine tatsächlich sichtbare Sammlung mit sehr vielen "älteren" Coins ab 2006 ff. wie zum Beispiel die Poffertjes, Twin Peaks oder Groningen Coins. Vielen Dank für das Pflegen und Ausstellen der Sammlung sagt ein Schildescher aus Köln.
