  1. Me thinks that this is part of the reason that geocaching introduced the "discover" functionality. I am of the same opinion that it is a little unfortunate that cache owners come in and raid their caches so they can get a cool icon. That being said, we have hidden many caches near our home and if we see a cool coin pop up, we will run out to take a look at it. We too think that coins and bugs attract cachers and why would we want to remove it from a cache of ours we want to see get activity.

  2. Twelve dollars is a great price for a coin where all the proceeds go to charity. I would by one, happily knowing that even though I am not getting a cheap, bargin coin, I am paying a decent, affordable price and the money goes to charity.

     

    Couldn't agree more! We would be in for a couple as well.

  3. We like to use geoswag items like bumper stickers and GC items, but we found some of those big oval car stickers that typically indicate a location you have visited (i.e. HH for Hilton Head) that said FTF. We have seen a couple around town on vehicles and can't help but wonder if they hit our caches. We have also left gift cards to various places and have received similar goodies like movie passes and personal geocoins. For us though, the biggest prize is getting to sign the FTF in the logbook!

  4. I like non-trackables. They seem like more of a signature item to me.

    couldn't have been said any better. I totally agree.

     

    Double dittos. We have found untrackable coins, one as a gift in a new cache, and they are our absolute favorites!

  5. We think a cachers name on the coin is preferable to not. We have started to mount a collection of coins, but none we have purchased compare to the one we received as a present from a cacher while on a recent excursion. We found a cache with a coin as a present for us inside, complete with the cachers name and unique artwork. To this day we still think that it is the best one in our collection...it keeps it personal. So, our two cents would be to put your name on it and share your uniqueness with the community!

  6. does anyone know if any websites are having any sales on tb's? Thanks,

     

    We just received an email from geoswag.com that they are having an "end of year clearance" event. We quickly jumped on their site and they have a lot of discounted coins and TB tags. Hope this helps in your search!
