+swimr48 Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 What do I do with an unregistered geocoin? I retrieved it, but it isn't registered. Quote Link to comment
+webscouter. Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 If it isn't registered it is generally considered a gift. Make sure you are putting in the correct numbers when searching for it. O for 0, I for 1 etc If you still don't find it register it yourself and do what you will with it. Quote Link to comment
+SniperChicken Posted September 22, 2008 Share Posted September 22, 2008 I sometimes leave unactivated personal geocoins into caches that i really enjoyed or to attract other cachers to give that cache a try. Sometimes i leave it specifically for the cache owner,if so i make sure to say so in the online cache log.Hopefully no one will take that coin that i left for a cache owner. Unless whoever left it in the cache left a "mission" for that unactivated coin it is definitely appropriate for a cacher to take it . Some coin owners get aggravated if you don't activate the coin and place it into a cache.They don't want it to just sit dorment in a collection somewhere . Quote Link to comment

+Night Stalker Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 I often leaved unactivated coins in caches. It is up to the finder to decide if he or she wants to collect it or activate it and send it on its way. Quote Link to comment
