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 belowThe 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.

Am 08.10 waren wir DVERK's und unser Sohn Liam (LErdO) zu Gast in Holland auf dem Event Saens Kessers Evenement [SAKE2016] - GC64Z75-. Wir hatten die weite Anreise auf uns genommen und haben nicht nur viele nette Menschen getroffen, sondern auch bekannte Gesichter gesehen. Es hat uns sehr gefreut dich mal wieder zu sehen und mit dir ein paar Worte wechseln aber natürlich und insbesondere deine fantastische Sammlung begutachtet. Daher bedanke ich mich dafür, deine besondere Sammlung (und deiner Freunde) discovern zu dürfen, es ist mir eine Ehre! Liebe Grüße aus Essen/NRW und wir sehen uns bestimmt in Maije oder in Bremerhaven wieder. Danke fürs zeigen! Tom

I have been given this incredibly huge collection of trackables by Geo-Dragonchild. Since that moment I am trying to visit (and admire) individually as many of these trackables as possible - but the collection is so big that I may not be able to visit all of them in details. I met Geo-Dragonchild perhaps several times during various Mega and Giga events in Europe, definitely it was this month at North Wales Mega event on the beautiful Llangollen canal. The Geo-Dragonchild's collection gives really a pleasure to browse through. I congratulate the owner for the given time and investment that this collection represents. Indeed, incredible! Thanks.

This guy introduced me to geocaching a day in October 2011. The days are still counting 😁! Now I was invited for a great evening with chat and "coinfest". I am really proud knowing you and what a great collection. The coins are amazing!
Thanks Geo-Dragonchild for everything! Hope to see you soon again.

A large and fine collection with different orientations. It takes a moment to look over the collection there was much to be seen.
