About This Item

I Want My Two Dollars! (Ver. 2.0)

This TB wants to travel the non-US world trading US pennies for local coins. It started with 200 US pennies; when the last US penny has been traded it needs to start back home -- Not Far From The Greenway (GC180BM) in Asheville, North Carolina, USA. There is also a logbook inside the TB--please sign it along with a note about what you swapped.

Please do not leave it outside of a cache -- though you can if absolutely necessary -- and try to get it back into a cache within two weeks.

Remember, this TB wants to stay away from the United States until all the pennies have been replaced by non-US coins!

I want my two dollars! will attend a caching event. I wrote the instructions as a note to the event page so hopefully people will bring coins and log it 🙂.

Huge bug, it will be challenging to fit it into a Finnish standard-size cache box... 🙂

Got it from Vsq. This is a great idea for a bug 😁. Too bad it's too big for most caches around here. Took a penny and left 10 penniä (1970).

Took a while to find a cache big enough for it.
Took 1cent, left 10 Finnish penniä. The coin is no longer in use since Finland changed it's currency to euro.
There are no Finnish eurocents in the jar yet, so the TB can stay in FIN some more...

Will decide soon if it stays in Finland or moves on.
