Current Goal

UPDATE - November 2021:
Originally this trackable was released as a proxy which has long since gone missing.  Therefore, going forward, the goal of the original coin will simply be to just hang with its owner, and be discovered at geo-events and elsewhere.  :-)

"John's 100 Finds Geocoin Proxy" is in a race with "Kathy's 100 Finds Geocoin Proxy!"  Let's see which one travels farther!  :-)  No particular location for a goal, just to travel the most distance.  (For fun, post some photos of its journey along the way!)

If you're curious and want to compare distance against Kathy's geocoin proxy, its trackable ID is TB839QQ​.

(Be sure to hide the tracking code when taking any pics).

​(Also, please don't "collect" this trackable, as that will take it out of circulation and spoil the fun.  PLEASE do not take this travel bug unless you'll faithfully log it and take it to another cache.  I can't tell you how many trackables I've released which have gone missing or stagnant, often after just being in one cache.  Please respect the purpose of travel bugs / trackables.  Thank you).

My friend Kathy (geocaching name:  ____geokatcher) and I started geocaching at roughly the same time, in 2015.  In the summers we live near each other so we often go geocaching together.  But in the winter I have a bit of an advantage since I live in a winter-friendly state and she doesn't, and so my totals are a bit higher than hers.  But we both achieved our First 100 Finds in 2016 and I thought it would be nice to commemorate the achievement with a couple of nice geocoins.  Hopefully we can continue the tradition of getting a nice geocoin (and releasing its proxy) as we reach higher achievement numbers.  :-)  (Next level: 250!)

"John's 100 Finds Geocoin" is being released as a proxy (laminated photocopy of the actual "coin") as too many real geocoins go missing when people collect them & take them out of circulation.  The tracking number is still present on the reverse side of the proxy so please log it online when you take it from a cache and again when you drop it off in another cache.  Thanks!!

(If you take a picture of the proxy, please photograph the front side only or cover up the tracking number).

Don't forget to log the geocoin proxy on geocaching.com!  Thanks!

Here geocaching on vacation from NY. Looks like the first to find your TB puts you quite a jump ahead of your friend Kathy for now. We have trackables with over 2ooo miles in no time so the contest isn't over yet!
Cache On!!! 😁
