  1. That's because its the "B" side. For whatever reason (I forget) USA Geocoins decided to make an alternate front side die for the 2006 USA geocoin. Making two versions then, a 1a (original front) and a 1b (new front). This is a 1b, so it looks nearly identical to a 1a, with some subtle switches of the engraving bar and date.

     

    Wonderful! Thanks for your help. If anyone can remember why USA Geocoins did that, I'd be interested in knowing.

     

    Thanks for the pics drneal. That was the difference I'd seen.

     

    Since the back reads "Used with permission..." I worried that my coin was a copy of some sort...or something like that.

  2. I received this coin in a grab bag, but can't find any info on it. Entering the tracking number labels it a "USA GEOCOIN", but that's all I can find on it. It looks like another coin I've seen, but has subtle differences. Can anyone help?

    Thanks

  3. How do y'all feel about the http://www.geocaching.com/expedia/ trackables going out. Has this been discussed? I did a search and didn't come up with much. Any idea what they look like?

     

    seriously? we have what is basically a pathtag that are traveling advertisements for a product? next thing you know they'll be advertising orange juice and luggage. like the last thing i want to find in a cache or in my collection is something equal to a newspaper ad. really?

    edited because i really can't type.

     

    Agreed. I don't like it either. I'm a capitalist and believe on making an honest buck, but I don't like caches or travelers going in that direction. I am NOT a fan of those eat sleep play chips either.
