GEOCACHING COINS ARE PART OF ITS HISTORY
Very early on in the history of the sport of geocaching we made Geocoins for participants. It was a natural fit. Many geocachers were, early on, former military people. Many still are. Military coins are part of their lexicon and they already knew the value of challenge coins as presentation and esprit de corps items. The coins at the left were made in 2004 only 4 years after geocaching.com was established. The growth of the hobby is truly phenomenal.
One of the early geocoins from a prestigious club. A well worn first edition as you can see.

WHY GEOCOINS
Geocoins can serve a wide variety of purposes. They can act as great fundraisers for your club or organization. They are highly treasured leave behinds. Geocoins can be given as prizes. And, obviously they make superb trackables.
WHY ARE THERE NOT MORE GEOCOINS?
Very frankly one of the problems is the initial expense of making them. There is the initial die charge which with some companies can be hundreds of dollars. (Not with us I hasten to add.) Then there is the requirement to order a minimum of 100 coins. This is too many for some small clubs or individuals. We are trying hard to make geocaching coins more affordable and available to more people. We honor the sport and hope to be trusted part of it.
