Current Goal

Sorry not much thought has gone into this but for me, winter = cold = north.
 
Therefore I would like this coin to go to the northern state of the different countries. (So if in Japan, Hokkaido and in UK, Scotland etc).
 
Does not have to be the most northern cache in the country as this may make the cache get stuck in some deserted place!
 
After travelling, I hope one day, it will come back to my possession and for the coin to tell me all about its travels!
(Please could you put the coin in a cache that is unlikely to get muggled! Thank you :grin: )

If you do have time, please leave a comment too. Love to hear from you all!

About This Item

Orusan's Japan Winter Geocoin

I hope you like this wonderful looking "Japan Winter Geocoin".
Japanese winter is cold and bitter but beautiful.
 
In the front of the coin, there are a traditional old Japanese houses covered in snow, kakamura and rabbit made of snow.
 
In Japan, when it snows in north, it is traditional to make “kamakura”.
Kamakura is a simple “house” made with snow and you light a candle inside. It is surprisingly warm inside a kamakura.

On the back, it is designed with “hatsuyume”. “Hatsu” means first and “yume” means dream. So literaly, it means the first dream that you have in the New Year. Some dreams are believed to be good luck and this coin represents some of of the items that is thought to bring you good luck should they appear in your “hatsuyume”. They are: Eagle, Mt Fuji and an aubergine.
