    Are Geocoins Still Relevant To The Hobby?

    in Trackables

    Posted

    Geocoin collecting has become a sub-catagory of sport of geocaching. Most coins are being minted as collectors, instead of swag items and travelers. How else can you explain the individual icons. In fact collecting icons has become a sub-catagory of coin collecting.

     

    I am a active cacher, who has started collecting coins with no intention of releasing them into the wild. But when I do have my own coin minted, some will be for releasing into caches.

     

    Even some of the commerical coins have relevance to the hobby. Take for instance the Not Another Micro coin, it pays homeage to the lowly film canister that started the micro cache craze.

     

    I don't know where it is all heading, but it is sure fun going on the journey.

    I just pped for 3. I am not real happy about tying up my money for 4 months but if that is what I gotta do, then I just done it. I do like the idea of taking care of cachers in your home area, though. But I wish your committee would rethink about splitting the order.
