Back about when we were signing up for the Titanic remint, another coin came out from across the pond I think, showing a Trans-Atlantic ship, the Rotterdam? Does anyone know the correct name for that coin?
I'd like to increase my cache finds to 200. Of course, I said that last year, but with the price of gas, an old car and now, great distances to travel for new cache finds, that didn't happen, so I'm looking for a modest 39 new cache finds this year.
You know you're a geocoin addict when the space on your end table, allotted to your geocoin display is now pushing your laptop a third of the way OFF the edge.
Packaging-packaging-packaging! I almost did not receive a trade coin from Ontario recently. The paper bubble mailer looked like it had been reused more than once or twice and was ripped and torn in several areas. If we are going to reuse mailers, perhaps reinforcing them with wide clear tape will insure a happy trader on the receiving end.
How about an "I can see Russia for my house" geocoin. Russia, with a Russian flag on the left side of the coin and on the right hand side, the outline of Alaska with a house sporting a US flag .
Interesting and informative discussion! Still wondering when (year) GC.com started with trackable geocoins. Prior to that and concurrently, I guess cachers were making non-trackables?
Recently, I read somewhere that the Kilted Cacher geocoin was the first trackable geocoin on GC.com. What were some other very early trackables? And what were the first geocoins with unique icons?
A cacher recented posted on another forum that he had completed his quest for the first 10 geocoins (non-trackable).
I'm curious which ones they are.
I nominate one of my favorite trading partners, TUCATS from Nova Scotia. Always friendly and helpful, he has gone out of his way to help me get those elusive Atlantic Canada coins.
