+AO and CC Posted July 8, 2017 Share Posted July 8, 2017 We've recently ordered and have starting our collection of geocoins, travel bugs and other trackables. These will not be released into the wild, for they will never be seen again. My question is, since they are going to be placed in a coin display on the wall and on a desk, should we go ahead and register them or leave them unregistered? I know registering them will show or prove ownership, but they're not actively traveling. Quote Link to comment

Take care of the activation code, should you ever want to sell them at a later date! Quote Link to comment

Besides the two you have activated now, if you plan on only keeping them at home, I agree with Bear and Ragged, leave 'em unactivated. If you ever decide to leave this odd hobby, they're worth a good deal more that way. However, if you ever release that activation code (just simply showing another a coin at an event...) be prepared to find that it's now possible it's gonna be listed as that person's property.

+AO and CC Posted July 9, 2017 Author Share Posted July 9, 2017 Thanks much appreciated, I was thinking it would be better to keep them unregistered since they're going to stay in the display and not travel. Quote Link to comment
