Sadly, some of the companies are no longer in business. And, if the coins are older, a company may not have the Activation Code cards for coins that are no longer in production. Although, they can likely provide you with the Activation Code itself.

Is the coin a Netsuke Maple Leaf?

If you want to do a not-so-small project... You can check into the manufacturer of the coins and make your own cards. If you find out the manufacturer, you may ask around to see if anyone has cards from that manufacturer. Then scan the card into your computer, use an editing program to change to the correct code and print it.

The coins I got from Geocaching Shop all had the cards with the Activation Code.

I hope I am speaking for more than just myself.... When you post that you received your Mission, it would be nice if you add who your Secret Easter Bunny is.

I should have been on Claire's list of not sent yet yesterday, but 'fixed' that today. THANK YOU, CLAIRE!!!

Who is your "Secret Bunny"?

This is good to hear as you are usually one of the last to receive your Mission!!!

I just received some trackable tags from one of the shops in Washington (not SG) today and they have cards with codes. My most recent coins from the subscription club that ships from Michigan does not have cards or codes. There is a shipment from Geocaching Shop due tomorrow. I'll put a note in here about them.

THANK YOU, CLAIRE!!!

The top on my wish list is a GC trackable North Dakota geocoin. And FTF Magazine Volume 1 Issue 1 --- I can still hope!!! I enjoy surprises, too, and would be happy with any coins I may receive for Missions!!!

I've purchased coins on ebay and from private collectors. And many from GC sponsored shops. Some have had the card with the coin and some don't. If the coins go through several sales or trades, the cards with the activation codes may be lost along the way. There are even some that have a ''manufacturer's'' card, but there is no activation code on it.

On that page, under what you posted above is a hyperlink that says ''Retrieve your activation code'' where you can get that code.

I've been looking forward to this!!! Sent info to Laval K-9 MARCH 16, 2025 Name received from Laval K-9: Sent my gift: My gift arrived at destination: I received a gift:

OOOPS... I posted the wrong link.

Try this... Geocaching > Adopt a Listing

If you know the approximate time frame, you could look through your Finds list to get an idea which cache you put it in. I also think it would be good to contact the TB owner. Although, I'm not sure if marking the TB as missing will remove it from your inventory.

Had something else to send, so tried to send my Mission to Canada again. My post office is still not accepting packages that are going to Canada. mpost office is still not accepting packages that are going to Canada.

I am very sad and disappointed to have to say that as of today, my post office is still not accepting packages that are going to Canada. Sorry to all the Mission senders and receivers who are impacted by this.

I commented earlier saying that I hoped the postal workers wouldn't take things out on the customers.

It appears they were ordered to end the strike. I hope they do their jobs properly and don't take their frustrations out on the customers.
