    I'm sure this has been addressed before, but I couldn't readily find it, so I'll ask.

     

    I found a geocoin in a cache, an "Evil Micro" geocoin. Later that day, I dropped it off in another cache. I wrote down the tracking number that was on the coin so I could log it properly when I got home.

     

    Problem. It was never logged in to the cache that I took it from. So, now, I haven't logged it out of that cache, nor logged it into the new cache. I don't even know how to log it. If it was on the cache page of the cache where I found it, I would have clicked on it and entered the tracking number. But it wasn't. I tried entering the tracking number in the TB search feature, but that didn't get me anywhere. How do I get this little coin back on track and properly logged in/out of the caches I'm aware of it being in?

    Thanks in advance.

     

    The only way to get it back on track is that you log it in as found somewhere else and log it into the new cache where you did place it. It may have lost some logged miles, but at least the owner will know where it is now.

    From this Californian , I love your updated version of this coin better than your 1st attempt. It's amazing what your brain can come up with when you keep changing. Please stay away from adding Eureka to your coin. Yes, California is known for the mountains and the deserts, but for your 2007 coin maybe you can have earthquakes, mudlides, drought and congested highways obscuring where all the caches are. LOL No, really the coin looks great! ;)

    Next month I am going on a cruise to Bahamas, St. Maaten, Jamaica and Puerto Rico. I have found a few caches there that can hold coins. Does anyone want to send me coins to place in a cache there? Please e-mail me through GC.com and I will give you my address to send the coins. I plan on releasing one of my Big Bear geocoins there!

    Crake-

     

    When I mailed out 1 or 2 coins to people I bought the smallest bubble envelople I could find. I think it was 3x5 and I taped my coins to the inside of the envelope. It worked great for me and besides, I don't think the PO is as abusive to mail as you are. Good luck

    If you are still checking this site while you are here in Big Bear, try these restraunts: Ichiban, Mandoline, Bailey's Coffe House (for Sandwiches), Nottinghams, Peppercorn, Stillwells. Looking for greasy spoon? Try Thelma's. Stay clear of Paoli's!

     

    Check the geocaches by me, Tandemaniacs. People love doing my Read the Sign cache. You have to think for that one. There are about 12 caches along the pedal path that runs on the north side of the lake. Start at the path trail head on Starvation Flats near the Elementary School. You're first cache is just after the new welcome wall.

     

    Wish I could cache with you, but it's my daughter's 3rd birthday on Thurs. Have fun!

    Hello fellow cachers,

     

    Happy New Year. I hope everyone had a safe and happy time partying. We 3 went to Palm Springs for the holiday and we didn't do any caching! Boo Hoo :D

     

    Snow on the ground is melting. There is still plenty here, but not everything is covered, so come, ski, cache.

    Coin Cost - Need Input!

    If it's a real gold coin you can charge $100 for a 2" coin, but I doubt anyone would buy it. I agree with AG. 1.5 - 1.75" is a normal and most liked coin size, but go with what you want. It is your coin. Don't listen to people who complain about the profit. You figure in a profit by making them $8- $9 each, but it ends up costing you more than you think. Research all the mailers and the cost of shipping outside the US. You'll end up breaking close to even and you'll end up with more headache thatn you thought.

     

    Good luck!

    I have lost 2 USA geocoins and 3 TBs. I am fed up with cachers that steal other people's property. I will never put a coin out in the wild again or a TB. I am very friendly to others coins and TBs. I move them along quickly, sometimes even mailing them from CA to my folks in MD or my brother in FL, all of which play.
