It's on the rim - thanks! Hadn't seen one like that yet

Sometimes the coin is on the outer rim. Does it say track at geocaching.com. If not you might of found a non trackable geocoin. If you post a picture that would help. Thanks! Here is the link to the information on the geocoin http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?guid=2cacbb7e-9eba-4569-b6e5-cc144c0bab92

I took a geocoin from a cache but cannot log it because it doesn't have a tracking code on it - help! Is there any way to find the code somewhere other than the coin??? Thanks! funibair a.k.a. Stephanie

I do actually know someone with a Garmin - maybe she can double check it for me Thanks for all the ideas

My advice: Use a water tight container - don't use gladware or anything else that was meant for temporary food storage and isn't water tight. How are you going to get your coordinates? Do you know how to average? Get the most accurate coordinates that you can. If your coordinates are fuzzy because of tree coverage, give a good hint so people can find it without trampling around too much. Stick close to your computer the first couple of days that your cache is published and be prepared to correct any problems. If cachers tell you your cache is 60 meters from ground zero and give you a more accurate coordinates, consider editing your posted latitude/longitude coords. If you can't figure out how to do something with regards to editting coords or cache description ask your reviewer and/or ask here on the forums for help. Getting the right coordinates is a concern of mine - I am using my iPhone and it always tells me "accurate with in 56 ft" - I don't want to give someone the wrong coordinates because my iPhone is off

HAHA! But it's the closest I could find to pink - and pink is my color

So we (we being me and my 6 yo son) are new to caching ~ haven't even logged 50 finds yet. I've been "stalking" sites and saving containers. I've been searching online and I think I have figured out what size the caches are and I have read http://www.geocaching.com/about/hiding.aspx. I'm nervous though - should I just bite the bullet and place one?? I want it to be fun and a good cache for people to find ~ maybe I'm just over thinking it and should "just do it" thanks!
