Current Goal

I'm taking part in the 6th annual Dartmoor Geocoin Race - which runs from 9th March 2019 - 30th November 2019. The geocoin which travels the furthest in that time will be the winner, and its owner will experience the extremely warm glow of success. cool

If you pick me up, please make sure you move me on to another cache quite quickly - I don't have time to hang around in rucksacks for weeks on end! If you find me and you're heading off on world-wide travel that would be extra brilliant; I'd love to visit other continents (as well as Europe). After 30th November 2019, I'd like to make it back to Devon so my owner can pick me up and take me with her for a while before I continue my journey.

17.04.2023 EDIT: Just to note that we won the race with a total travelled distance of 107,346 km (67091 miles) thanks to 7 cachers - squibbels, jonkiponki, pandaemo, kapeka, Axell33, GHFB & last but not least papillon367 (who also kept it safe all through the pandemic). Big thanks to all of them and to everyone who has kept the GC moving since then. 

About This Item

The geocoin itself depicts Brent Tor, which is on the western fringe of Dartmoor in Devon in the South West of the UK. There is a tiny church (capacity 40 people!) on the top, which dates from the 13th century.

Thanks for sharing
Mark Missing 10/19/2023 Kerfuffles marked it as missing   Visit Log

Thanks very much to GeoJaxx for breaking the sad news that our race-winning geocoin has gone missing.
It's so frustrating to think that someone somewhere feels the need to possess it and keep it in a drawer or GC collection folder - or even worse, to sell it for personal gain.

I don't have the heart to keep an empty wallet travelling so at my request GeoJaxx has disposed of the bits that it travelled with and I'm marking it as missing.

There's still a tiny pinpoint of hope that one day it'll pop up in a cache, but I'm not holding my breath...

Final thanks to all those honest cachers who helped it along its way.
Write note 10/18/2023 GeoJaxx posted a note for it   Visit Log

After contacting the owner to let them know that this is travelling as an empty case as somebody has stolen the coin and written the tracking number on the paper inside.

The owner has requested that I dispose of it as it will now be taken out of circulation - which I will do.

Congratulations on winning the race and sorry for the sad end to its journey.

I have picked this up but sad to see that the actual Geocoin has gone missing. Not sure how long it has been travelling like this but it is a keyring attached to an empty coin plastic wallet with the tracking number written on it.
