Current Goal

Please keep this moving.  Geocoins, like travel bugs, like to travel!  

 

If you pick up a geocoin or travel bug, realize that someone has spent money, time, and effort to share a little geocaching fun with you.  Please do the honorable thing and safeguard it from being lost at an event, at home, or in the bottom of a caching bag.  

 

Please put it in a cache (any cache, even the one in which you found it) within a reasonable time.  (Within two weeks, if possible.)

About This Item

Appalachian Trail geocoin, redone

This is a replacement for my Geocoin for Grandma, which is missing.  

This consists of a photocopy of the coin's image, along with two metal washers glued inside a coin capsule to give it a nice weight and feel.  I regret that it is a poor representation of the brilliant colors and craftsmanship of the original.  

This is one of a pair of geocoins that my children sent out from Oregon in hopes they'd reach their grandmother in West Virginia.  Both are missing.  I still hope the originals show up some day, perhaps with tales of grand adventures.

Trotted down to this nearby cache to see what I could see.
I discovered a Geocoin for Grandma! What a neat idea!
I'm not traveling to any other caches in the near future, so I left it here for the next cacher.

I'll just say ... "Gobble, gobble, Gobblaea"...
(which is turkey for "Hi Grandma!")

OK, Grandma, it's on its way! (Just don't hold your breath waiting for it to arrive.)
