+Lemon Fresh Dog Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 Okay - first rule: You are NOT allowed to mention EXISTING geocoins. That had to be stated I've seen some posts and have seen some sites selling "geocoins" which are.... um.... well.... odd. So, I thought it might be kind of funny to have a thread on what you would consider the worst idea ever for a geocoin. (fictional - not real) I hope this can stay fun and funny - if not, I trust our moderators to lock it up! Who knows... maybe we'll get another set of "Screw Geocoins" out of this thread (the old timers know what I'm talking about) Here's my picks: 1) Funeral Home Geocoin. For all the caches you are allowed to bury! 2) Drug Addiction Geocoin. Combine all your favourite addictions into one! 3) Private Property Geocoin. The coin for the places where you can't place caches! (part of the series: "Railroad Geocoin", "Powerline Geocoin" and "Elementary School Playground Geocoin" Quote Link to comment
Tooeygeotrashed Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 The teenie weenie nano coin, cheap to ship, if you lose it you won't even notice and comes with a microscope for reading the tracking number Quote Link to comment
+mousekakat Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 The trackable crystal ice coin commemorating winter caching... shipped to you in a freezer container with dry ice, ready to be placed in a cache... Naomi Quote Link to comment
Tooeygeotrashed Posted November 20, 2008 Share Posted November 20, 2008 (edited) Does this Stone look out of place Geocoin. Take one smooth pebble and a permanent marker pen and write on the tracking number number, not forgetting to add track at etc. Place Geocoin with blank side uppermost next to your favourite caches. Only Geologists will know if it should be there or not, since I have a gravel driveway I must be a geomillionaire now - 'cos they come untrackable too Ooops can we mention that !

+Droo Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 (edited) Well we just had another wildfire blow through town (from the east side of town this time) so I'd say a "I got my butt singed in the last fire" geocoin would not go down well in these parts. Or how about the "I lost my house in the fire will you send me a free geocoin?" geocoin. Edited November 21, 2008 by Droo Quote Link to comment

+labrat_wr Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 What about the "decomposing animal geocoin" series of coins designed to resemble deceased animals and birds.

+Tethys C Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Maybe a GeoRoadKill coin series. Collect them as you off a squirrel or bunny or skunk....you get the picture (although maybe you don't really want to) Quote Link to comment

+Six Little Spookies Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 *snip* or maybe the "assault rifle geocoin" commemorating automatic weapons. I would definitely buy these! Also the Osama coin that no one can find? Hilarious. You wouldn't even have to go through the trouble of minting the coin. A little bit of Photoshop and some friends of a brother-in-law who claim to have found one and you're in business! I wonder how long it would take to get the rumors started... Quote Link to comment
+_c3_ Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Ok, something else.... A piece of chockolate (shaped geocoin), but it will have a worm coming out!!!! Now that's an idea... trackable chocolate. Perhaps the Hershey edible coin series? Seriously, I didn't lose the geocoin, I ate it... Of course, I'd hate to find one of those in a cache in the summer here in the southern U.S.... Nestled right beside the log book... yuck! Quote Link to comment

ATMouse Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 I never heard the phrase "Pickle Park" until I started caching. How about a pickle with a parked car as an icon? Quote Link to comment
+rsfish1 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Better yet a Vista geocoin that no matter what you tried for the tracking number it would not work... And it would have to cost at least $100. Quote Link to comment
