+WWC-World's Worst Cacher Posted January 10, 2008 Share Posted January 10, 2008 In the next day or two this coin will go up for sale at Hogwild Stuff. Coin Description & Background The Game Trivial Pursuit was introduced in 1982 and was almost an instant hit. In the original game the questions ranged from weird to simple, from easy to hard. Since it was initially offered for sale a number of other editions have been issued including: a 90’ edition, SNL DVD edition, Pop Culture and even a Lord of the Rings edition. Will there ever be geocaching edition? Hard to say. Regardless, this is our geocaching / geocoin tribute to the Trivial pursuit of caching. The Cointest Got to thinking . . . . . there might be a need to do one or more additional coins with new questions. Here is the contest. Post a geocaching question that could go on a V2 coin.

Coin Stats Size: 2.0 inches wide X 1.25 inches 3.0 mm Thick Finish: Black Nickel / Gold LE – Both Imitation Hard Enamel Gold LE limited to 80 coins Tracking: www.geocaching.com Icon: Unique Price: $8.90 for Black Nickel - There will be just a few of the Gold LE coins offered for sale as a set with a black nickel coin for $19.95 each.
