[n00b] How do I place a geo coin?

[+snapshot7 0]

Hi, I just dropped a geocoin in a cache and I want to log that I placed it in that cache. I have already logged the cache that I found it and said I put a coin in there. How do I log the coin so it's not on me anymore? I checked the FAQ's and got confused sorry for the noob question, I'm sure you guys get it a lot.

First you must have coin in your inventory.... you should've retrieved it from a cache or activated if it's your own. Go to Trackables and enter tracking number in the "Track" field if you need to log the retrieval/grab.

Second go back to the cache you dropped the coin in and write another log.... a note this time not a find.... and highlight to select the coin from the inventory box (aka Dropped off any Travel Bugs? Section) at the bottom of the page. Voila'! Yer dun.

 

For more info on Geocoins go to Trackables and checkout the links in the Geocoin section.

It comes up a lot so it's almost cut and paste.
