+LewisClan77 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Well, yes sorry, but I like this game a lot and I have it in my watchlist. I'm working half days at the moment (it's not going so well), so I have some extra time to play. Here is the next one: 2YS4U geocoin Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Yes, that's the one. A beautifull coin with on the back the text: "The wise old owl sat in an oak. The more he sat, the less he spoke. The less he spoke, the more he heard. Why can't we all be like that old bird?" Give us a new drawing to guess Quote Link to comment
avroair Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 That was quick! I'm impressed. You again. Is anyone else playing? I am following the thread, but by the time I find a photo of the coin, download it, post it somewhere I can post... too late... Anyways, next person to get 5 correct will get a free coin from me.

+LewisClan77 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 That's it. You're up... Quote Link to comment
+LewisClan77 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 This is fun! This should be easy also... OK...trying again ......Nomex Man.. Cool! Who's next?!? Next person to draw 10 new coins AND get 5 others right gets a free Mardi Gras Mask from me! Well, I am pretty close, but with that last drawing by scificollector he has hit 10 drawn. I think he has 7 or 8 correct. I have detailed stats if needed/wanted. So I guess...Congrats. Quote Link to comment
+LewisClan77 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Well, it will be 10 drawn as soon as a new one is posted... Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Here's the next one! Pardon the napkin drawing. Quote Link to comment
+LewisClan77 Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Here's the next one! Pardon the napkin drawing. Pathtag emissary? Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Nope. Spinner in the middle not pathtag! Next guess! Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Oops, not that one. Let me see if I can find a photo... It looks a lot like mariners astrolab, but not quite... Edited April 16, 2011 by Six Little Spookies Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Not sextant. Note the outside edge of coin. Next guess! I will provide a hint if next guess isnt correct. Quote Link to comment

All we have to do is guess wrong and we get a hint? In that case it is Moun10Bike v2. Now you owe us a hint! Lol! Quote Link to comment
+Toojin Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I pay attention to and really enjoy this thread, but my time ... well life interrupts what we really want to do, doesn't it? You folks are getting better and better at this !! Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Rofl! Okay. Here is the hint: It does look like a marine astrolabe because it has a relation to sailing ships found in the waters near my current state of residence (and your previous residential state, Six Little Spookies ) Edited April 17, 2011 by scificollector Quote Link to comment
+aka Momster Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 2YS4U geocoin What a nice coin. I haven't seen that one before. Maybe some day one will wander my way. I follow this game thread, but even when the answer is known, I usually don't have a photo of the coin to use. Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 I've found the easiest way to find a photo is to use the trackable page at geocaching.com (keyword search) and then page through until you find a usable photo. Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Here's a picture of the backside: Quote Link to comment

I didn't mean I can't find them exactly ; it is more that I don't feel ok using photos without the photographer's permission. Yeah, I am aware I am one of the final internet users holding down that fort BTW. Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Well, I am not the world expert on that particular subject but wouldn't the thread fall under the fair use clause as somewhat educational usage? I certainly am finding it expanding my knowledge of geocoins Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Here's the next one! Pardon the napkin drawing. Got it. It's Florida Shipwreck Series Decipher coin! Now let's see if I can get the HTML to work on my phone again... Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 (edited) Its actually one of my favorite coins for all of its simplicity. There are three other coins that are part of the series: I'm still searching for a reasonable Atocha cross and Capitana Medallion (second and third pictures). Most of them have been quite high on the ePlace. Edited April 16, 2011 by scificollector Quote Link to comment
+aka Momster Posted April 16, 2011 Share Posted April 16, 2011 Nice job solving Napkin Coin, Six Little Spookies. I found many almost look likes, but not the correct coin. Had fun searching though. Quote Link to comment

Had fun searching though. I had seen this coin before but didn't realize it was a decoder for naval flag code. That's pretty cool. I'll get another drawing up in a little bit. Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Here you go: probably my worst coin drawing ever. It's an ugly one folks (the drawing, not the coin). Symmetry and perspective mean nothing! Look away if you can! Gotta have the right year as well as the name on this one. Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 (edited) That's the Geocaching - All In One Geocoin 2008 I've got this coin in my collection (TB2YW70) Edited April 17, 2011 by JackHoe Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 That's correct. Your go. Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 OK, here's the next one; Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Can't find this yet... Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 I've been trying as well...no luck so far! Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 At first I thought it was this coin: but it didn't quite match up. Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 At first I thought it was this coin: but it didn't quite match up. That is very similar. I wonder if they did another coin? A different year perhaps? I went to the website on the coin but can't read German so I don't know if coins were ever mentioned! Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) I had google do a translation but wasn't able to glean any insight from that website. Can't tell which flag is on the left (could be germany or holland) but looks like the european union flag on the right. Edited April 18, 2011 by scificollector Quote Link to comment

Can't tell which flag is on the left (could be germany or holland) but looks like the european union flag on the right. I think you are right about the flags. I agree that's the EU flag on the right. My guess is the left one is German, since it's so close to the other coin (made by German Scouts). Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) I'll give you a little help, one of the two flags mentioned was right and it is not another version of the coin shown by scificollector. When I get back from work, I'll give another hint. Edited April 18, 2011 by JackHoe Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 (edited) An other hint: it's a verry new coin and pictues of it are hard to find I think. But I can help...... Edited April 18, 2011 by JackHoe Quote Link to comment
+Team Van Stoffelen Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 An other hint: it's a verry new coin and pictues of it are hard to find I think. But I can help...... I know you can help Jack, you drawed the picture. I myself would ask Erica for some help. Quote Link to comment

+Team Van Stoffelen Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 GME 2011 Geocoin, as released on last weekend GME Event (which I could not attend). Quote Link to comment

+Six Little Spookies Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Lol, that makes it hard! Giving us a coin that isn't released yet! Ok, ready for the next one! Quote Link to comment
+JackHoe Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Lol, that makes it hard! Giving us a coin that isn't released yet! Ok, ready for the next one! The coin was released last saterday. I got one and activated it before I made the drawing, so it could be found in my profile. I hoped that the hints I gave would help people to search that way. Next time I will try to make an easy one (if I'm able to guess right) Quote Link to comment
+scificollector Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 Hehe. I looked through your profile but evidently didn't spot it. Quote Link to comment
+Six Little Spookies Posted April 18, 2011 Share Posted April 18, 2011 I finally found it on his list. It's buried pretty well! The side he drew isn't the default image he has set up for the coin, so you have to check the other image also. Tricky, tricky! Lol, good one JackHoe! Go to the link below to see the Geocaching Multi Event 2011 Geocoin. http://www.geocaching.com/track/details.aspx?id=3512867 Or cut and paste if it doesn't automatically turn into a hyperlink for you.

Thank you. It was a special event for me, because it was my 1000th found and I met Brayn Roth and was able to have a little chat with him. Very nice. Also received a Carpe Diem Mystery coin. It Was really a great day, so I couldn't resist in using the GME coin for this game. Quote Link to comment
