+Team kizb Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 What types have there been in the past? I've had a Travel Bug attached to my GeoTruck key ring for awhile now and have now attached one of my personal Geocoin samples to it as well. Have others done this as well, or has a Geocoin ever been designed for this purpose? Quote

RedShoesGirl Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 WriteShopRobert has his coins which come in a variety of flavors and have a chain for attaching to keychain or whatever. very pretty coins with utah on the back with a jewel. i keep one on my keychain. Quote
+Crowesfeat30 Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 I did THIS one after I lost my keys in the local WalMart. I did get my keys back but thought the little extra "insurance" would be fun. CF30 Quote
+Team kizb Posted October 31, 2010 Author Posted October 31, 2010 (edited) Hmm, some neat ones. Got an idea for a new project. What do you think about a low cost Aluminum tag (or Geocoin) that you could customize one side of? It would be about the size of a dog tag (2" x 1.5") and have a min requirement of 10 pieces. Trackable on gc.com, 3 or 4 colors to pick out and of course your Geonick. Standard side would have a Geocaching theme. Edited October 31, 2010 by Team kizb Quote
+Ruud4d Posted October 31, 2010 Posted October 31, 2010 I have got this (sorry for bad quality). Quote

All I see is a Geocoin Tracking Site. sorry, i forgot the "s." their site is closed for a vacation but if you look down the right hand side you can see a dark aluminum coin. it has a custom side and a standard side. they are trackable. very lightweight. makes a good sig item i think. http://store.geocoins.net/index.php?main_p...pemcapmnv79t0n5 Quote
+wenzelbub Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 My girlfriend has one of my travelstamps next to her keys: I'm not sure if it will fit without ball chain, have to check it at home Quote
+Zelanzy Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 WriteShopRobert has his coins which come in a variety of flavors and have a chain for attaching to keychain or whatever. very pretty coins with utah on the back with a jewel. i keep one on my keychain. This is what immediately came to my mind as well. They also come with a little chain thingy which you can attach to anything (specifically intended for a laminated tag that says: DO NOT KEEP!) Quote
Jennibear23 Posted November 1, 2010 Posted November 1, 2010 I'm fairly new to geocaching and very new to the forums. I have only been reading and learning but wanted to let anyone interested know, especially Tennessee Jed, that Shop Groundspeak has the ROT13 Geocoin key chain. I just got mine on Oct 23 and LOVE it! My "secret decoder" is now always with me in case I need it. I also like Crowesfeat30's added "insurance" idea of keys being attached to a trackable. Quote

rickctroop13 Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 (edited) http://shop.geoswag.com/shopsite_sc/store/...coin_holder.JPG <non trackable link removed by moderator> These let you turn just about any coin into a key ring. I've also used them to make non-trackable coins/tokens into travelers by adding a tag on other end. Edited November 2, 2010 by Flying Spaghetti Monster Quote
+fegan Posted November 2, 2010 Posted November 2, 2010 Here's the SCGA's travel tag (includes the ball chain): Quote
+CCWelch Posted November 3, 2010 Posted November 3, 2010 The coin that I am designing for my wedding reception event has a hole drilled to be used as a keyring or whatever. I will not post any pics because I am trying to keep the design and colors a surprise. Quote
