+Two Ton Whale Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 You should not post the tracking number anywhere on the website. Instead, go here and click 'Found it? Log it!' in the top right. Then select 'Retreived from' in the drop down menu. Quote Link to comment
+The Blorenges Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 Hi there First, could you please edit your post above to remove the tracking number of the geocoin - Tracking numbers should not be posted in forums (or other public places like cache logs), they should be kept secret and known only to the owner and to cachers who actually see the item. You can replace the tracking number with TB4QV6R which is the public reference number for the item. Now, as you've found the geocoin and you've taken it from the cache you need to do the on-line retrieve to bring it into your inventory, so that it shows as being "in your hands": On the geocoin's page, click on 'Found it, log it' (top right). Select from the drop-down 'Retrieve from Ledbury Hunt', put in the tracking number, your comments, then 'Submit log'. Doing this will remove the geocoin from the Ledbury Hunt cache inventory, put it into your inventory (so it's ready to be dropped off into another cache), and the owner will receive email notification that you have picked up their geocoin.

+Eartha Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Hello tewksbury cachers, and welcome to the fun of geocaching and moving trackables. Keeping track of these trackables only works if they are logged correctly. Please click here and follow these instructions, if you need help logging it. Let me know if you have any trouble with that. Enjoy the game! Eartha Groundspeak Volunteer Edited August 22, 2012 by Eartha spelling <_< Quote Link to comment
+Droo Posted August 22, 2012 Share Posted August 22, 2012 (edited) Haven't done one of these for a while so here's a visual representation of the 4 page, 7 step process of retrieving a geocoin. Hope it helps. There is another way to get to Step 4 and that's through the cache page where the coin was last dropped in.... click on the coin's icon and it takes you to the Coin Page.
