+KrazyTrollz Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 I hate to even suggest this as coins are sooo purtyyyy ...... BUT so many get stolen, so when you send them out, may I suggest drilling a hole in them and attaching their mission? I love watching things w/missions and then really feel sad when I see them disappear. Just my .02 cents Quote Link to comment
+Crowesfeat30 Posted January 1, 2008 Share Posted January 1, 2008 Hi, I hope I'm not too late, but I sent an e-mail anyway. My computer monitor is going bad & I just found this thread. I, too, have both of your coins & especially love the one with the crow. CF30 Quote Link to comment
Dancingfool Posted January 1, 2008 Author Share Posted January 1, 2008 WOW!!!!! I am blown away by the response. What a great way to end the year and begin a new one. Thanks for all the kind comments and offers to help. It will take a little time to sort it all out but I think this should be fun. A couple of ideas have percolated. It seems unfair to race since different coins will be going to many locations and.As we all know a traveler might make it to a goal location that is thousands of miles away faster than one that is hundreds of mile away.Besides this should be fun. I will probably send a bunch out with the goal of returning to me since dropping so many coins here might not work well but I plan on enlisting the aid of local cachers. Another nice reconnection with my geocaching friends.How cool is that?? With others watching the coins I will feel less pressure to track them and just enjoy the fact that they are getting shared with others on a lot of levels. It would make sense to start a thread to watch them and post comments to as well. I am going to try to set up a web page that will list all the coins and the destinations so others can watch with out clogging their watchlists I am sure quite a few will "disappear" but that is just the nature of travelers. I have recycled quite a few tags and coin #'s by releasing new items with the numbers attached. I think I have enough coins to cover those who have requested them but keep posting if you are interested. Give me some time get organized and get them drilled and tagged and I will post more and contact those who have contacted me. Michael Quote Link to comment

+Anthus Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Cool! We have a Firefighter on it's way to see us. If this is the same coin that I traded with you in early 2006 than it's one of my first trades. I still have your DancingFool coin at the begining of my first coin binder. I pretty much so keep them in the order that I receive them. If anyone sees the Firefighter (TBTWZ6), please help it along to it's goal! Thanks so mcuh for doing this DancingFool! ...Anthus Edited February 9, 2008 by Anthus Quote Link to comment

+Crowesfeat30 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) I am honored to have TBMZQT - Back Break Billy Geocoin - traveling to the first cache I ever placed - GCMKVP - Lost Yer Marbles? I am hoping that it makes it there with no trouble so I can log this cool coin myself and then send it off on another adventure! CF30 Edited February 9, 2008 by Crowesfeat30 Quote Link to comment
+luckycharmer Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 We're so excited to watch TBRJ09 - Illinois Geocoin. In my excitement I deleted your e-mail and had to go through your entire list of coins to find the one coming here. The kids wanted to run out and see if it had arrived here yet - no idea of patients. LOL. Thanks for including us in on this adventure. Quote Link to comment
+teald024 Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 Sweet! I have put the New York Geocoin (TBNTVG) on my watch list. Can't decide if I would rather see it soon or see how far it will go first?? Probably the second of the two. Thanks Dancingfool! . Quote Link to comment
+mousekakat Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 (edited) Yeppers! We're now keeping an eye on this one! TBMZA1, the Fundemental & Venus Geocoin. I love the icon with the walking family, can't wait to see the actual coin! Thanks, Dancin' Fool, for doing this! Naomi and family Edited to add... even cooler, I finally tracked down a picture of it and it's a SAAB!! Sweden bound, hehehe! Edited February 9, 2008 by mousekakat Quote Link to comment
acadiahiker Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 We'll be watching TBN4E9-Darth Maul geocoin, as it travels up the coast to Maine. Quote Link to comment
ljay Posted February 9, 2008 Share Posted February 9, 2008 So i have been avoiding the Geocoin Forums for the last couple of weeks as i have just started uni and i am trying to get my head around being a student again and i am also trying to save some money. (totaled it up and i have spent nearly $450 since mid november on this addiction). Then on Thursday i got a message via GS from Dancingfool and my first thought was "have i got a Travel Bug at the bottom of my Backpack" but thankfully no. He was telling me that he has launched TBVCJ1 to come and visit us here in Scotland. i will admit that i had to think about it for a minute before i remember that i did indeed send an email to say we'd take one and i am now looking forward to watching it travel across the pond. Thanks for this great project. I look forward to your coin meeting with the Team Falconer Scotland Geocoin when it gets here. Ljay (trying to avert eyes from all these lovely projects ) Quote Link to comment

+forthferalz Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hi dancing fool - awesome project. I will have to think about it as this also what i want to happen to my coins when i get bit more elderly or something else happens hey you never know.... why don't you ask if you can use the cachinggames site to track all these coins and see their travels easily on one site? The individuals could upload all the details for each coin. Quote Link to comment
+Frozen Buns Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 email on its way to you, if you have any left to send out you can send them to Alaska or South Tip of Texas Quote Link to comment

+Kiwi Nomad Posted February 10, 2008 Share Posted February 10, 2008 Hi I would love to help out, either to be a goal for a geocoin to get to check out my cache Time to Travel or to release one way down here in New Zealand to try and return to you. Quote Link to comment

Dancingfool Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 What a project!!!! Lot more work than I had planned but the coins are all drilled, tagged, and the pages edited. For those who recently e mailed I will try to send more out but for now I need to let the dust settle. I sent e mail to those who have coins designated for them. If you did not get one let me know and I will get back with you. I created a web page that lists all the coins going out if you wanted to check some others and I may create some sort of blog or area of interesting logs as the coins begin to circulate. You can see it here Dancingfools Traveling Geocoin Collection They should start finding their way into caches soon. Thanks for all the nice comments. It was nice to reconnect and look at so many profiles and cache pages and imagine the travels to come. Quote Link to comment
+backhiker Posted February 12, 2008 Share Posted February 12, 2008 Thanks for the link for all the travelers, I added it to my favorites! It will be fun to watch all the coins make their way. Thank you for letting me be a small part of this Quote Link to comment

Don't know what this selection says about me if DF is trying to match coins to people! Just kidding! I know I'm a newcomer to the forums and nobody knows me from Adam! Cheers and thanks again for setting up this project! Quote Link to comment
