I too was honored to receive one of these beautiful coins in the mail today. Thank you to whomever is sending these out. I don't hang out in here too much any more so it was a complete surprise to me when I opened the package that I had apparently sent to myself :mad: The artwork is so detailed, the metal is one of my favorite metals and I love that is is round!! A truly classic coin to me. Thanks again, and I assure the sender that it will have a safe and happy home in my coin collection.

Yeah, well. To anyone that doesn't know you, lemme splain. You're probably the one person I could pick from any walk of life I dabble in that never says a discouraging word about anyone, always smiles, and helps out everyone even when it sucks. You're the most deserving guy I could pick.

 

So congrats dude. . . :mad:

A few weeks ago one dozen of these cool coins arrived in a package for my November event in Iraq. They are now with cachers and in caches in Iraq, Afghanistan and Qatar. Thank you Mystery Coiner. We can all use a little extra Luck and Protection out here in this part of the world.

 

This is one very nice mystery coin. It is awesome some were send over for the event.

Interesting! I just found this one (#172) in the "Glacial Wetlands" cache (GCN43Z) with BradXn and some of our assorted mini-Xn. Is this coin still a mystery, or am I missing something?

 

I'll add it to my collection next to my Moun10Bike wooden coin. (Two makes a collection, correct? :) )

I took my place just before the poker tourney at GCF earlier this evening - nipped out to the bathroom before the game started and came back to discover this beautiful coin underneath my bag of poker chips!

 

WOW!!! Thank you very much to the mystery donor of this coin, I'm honoured to be adding it to my collection, and hope it will bring me some luck!

Wendy did you win the Poker Game? Congratulations to hear about receiving this mystery geocoin, WooHoo:) The only time we say one of these was on the Auction, what a really nice Mystery Geocoin.

At the Friday night event, I was sitting with a friend who was looking through my box of traders, when he pulled this coin out and said, "What is this coin?" Well, I had no idea, I'd never seen it before. We both decided, MYSTERY COIN and examined it closely. It's really lovely. Jackalgirl was able to shed some light on it and tell us the name of the coin and a little about the history of the imagery on it. Some generous person must have kindly dropped it into my box during the course of the evening. A huge and happy THANK YOU to whomever that was.

Lovely Chinese inspired mystery geocoin featuring a stylized great wall of china around the symbols for luck and protection.

 

Luck side: Leatherman variant geocaching symbol, pair of chinese dragons, chinese characters 吉 祥 jí xiáng = auspiciousness

 

吉 jí = lucky, auspicious, propitious. The original pictograph meant "put the weapons away in a box" ie: there were no wars or disasters.

祥 xiáng = "great luck" or "fortune". The left part means "of God", the right means "lamb". Coin contains a mild typo in the character. Sheep in ancient times was a lucky animal like dragon or phoenix. It is also a common name for boys.
