Something else just to add to the finding of travel bugs. I am kind of a bug person (I know i have not been caching long but... I like the bugs and think they are more fun to move than the actual caching itself :-) This is helpful for a trip. If you know your going to be traveling from point A to point B create a route using the directions then you can create a Pocket Query based on your route and tell it to find all caches within x distance along that route that have bugs in them. Again its a good idea to check out the logs to see if it looks like it may still be in the cache. Have fun :-)

Thanks everyone for their reply. I went with the advise of checking goals then contacting owners. ALL of the owners were rather excited: A. That I picked up the TB. B. That I was going to take it so far. C. Did not mind that I had them for the designated amount of time. Happy caching to everyone.

Yeah, I have been checking the goals. I have seen a few running in a direction different than me and will surly pass them over. But I guess my real question is. How many TB and Coins would be to many to carry :-)

I am going to be moving in a few days. A move that is going to take me about 3k miles. I was wondering, there are a few TB's in the area that are just wanting to add up miles. Would there be anything wrong with picking up handful and taking them with? I see some people that seem a bit angry on the form when someone goes around and harvests them. I guess the only difference for me is that I would indeed be moving them, Just going to have to hang onto them for a few weeks.

If you would like I can send you the bounce email if you think it would help figure out what is going on. Can the designs be each submitted at a different time? Lets say two this month, three next then wait a while and do a few more? How do I go about buying the numbers? That is also something I did not see. I would be totally fine sending in the design sketches or whatever but being hand crafted they will vary slightly. Is this okay? Thank you very much for the quick reply :-)

Sorry if this is a repost but I could not find the answer in the forms. That could be because I suck at form searching...

I sent the following email to: geocoins@geocaching.com and it bounced back to me. I am guessing it was an old email address I found on the site so I am not quite sure who to contact. I am an artist and have several ideas for some geocoins. The coins and designs will be hand minted and designed (by me). Is this an acceptable practice? From what I understand there is a 50 code minimum block requirement for codes at $1.50 each. Can each of the codes be used for a different coin design? Basically I am interested in creating something of artistic value and not sending my design to someone to someone else to make. Each coin would be be unique and therefor I think more fun!
