Geocaching Australia

HI ADAcache-well reusing the back of yours would be nice for continuity. Which mint was it? I'm not much into stuffing envelopes myself and DEFINITELY allergic to customs forms but for a small fee this can be outsourced:) Anyway the Italians are at it http://forums.groundspeak.com/GC/index.php?s=0d8...

I would be keen to see the 2006 as a sort of template if the designer of that coin has no objection. Some continuity with the look would make the coins sorta kinda like a set. Replace the Roo with another fluffy animal (I like platypus personally), incorporate a southern cross somewhere in the back...

Surely- the adacache design was lovely for its bold simplicity - the caching aspect is hard to generalise ( no ammo cans for us!) ?make an S at the top of a compass rose ?forming it into part of a 'slogan' like Great Southern Land (?G that generic geocaching sig with cross) <br> another roo/photo co...

I didn't think the kiwi was a committee design - hexthekiwi is US based cacher and allowed the GPS society in NZ to sell the coin as a fundraiser. bit like the first 'aussie' coin. The UK coin was committee coin - isle of man and the cornish are by groups.

well it's not even drawn! The process if you know what you are doing can have a turn around time of 6-8 weeks. For ballpark figure on a multi coin set kayakerinme made an awesome 5 coin set that interlocks simply - BIG coins, 3d separate tracking! middlemen, and they cost US$30 each SET due to econm...

A multiple piece "jigsaw" coin, each piece representing a state, floral emblem on each, and the seperate coins interlock to make map of Australia. wow that would be expensive but we could make a base coin with Uluru and ACT as the starting coin and collect the other states over a year - kind of lik...

In case this idea might help to Galvanise an informal group amongst aussies with an attitude problem to having a formal society; the Taiwanese managed it recently (gorgeous coin). Offshore sales should raise revenue and since there is no society rather than GC.com, US cachers and a chinese "mint" ta...

make 2007 coin a group effort?
Also anyone with other ideas to post here?

"Corroboree coin" ( corroboree frog + black nickel version of 2006 map design)
"green and gold"( transparent enamel over gold)
"caching rocks" ( opal and uluru)

Some pepole get their jollies from teasing. They are sick Craigrat - see the geocoin pirat thread on the main coin forum. Most I think are just clueless - well people will go sending coins out with NO MISSION CARD! Thats the MAJORITY of the coins i have moved - if you see one like this print outthe ...

the track page has been rewritten - please all have a look and feedback now. I think it still needs changes -particularly the how to log page - awful! It took me two goes to find where to track my coin :oops: links to coin "theft" pages please? Some guys just hang oooonnnn to the tbs- 6 months a YEA...

yes lets work to keep our reputation! log coins carfully and above all rehide them soon so they can travel.
check the copy is kosher! some guys stealt he coin and leave a copy so the owner is unaware! not many folk ad a photo to the coin page

A few more players from Aus would be welcome

Haven't you heard what I do to chickens?

so bad cache placement/maintainence is off topic and this is on topic

I'm all for staying undercover but caching is not "off the radar" and hasn't been for ages. The bit over south perth council works too. They have made their very sensible rules explicit and after consultation with the individual cacher ( except I don't know where they get the idea national parks hav...

Start where we have an invitation? There is a ranger who accidentally found a cache and his mates were all really excited about it and it needs it's coordinates taken again - they were kind enough to rehide and make contact throught the GC website recently. Contact name and everything. perhaps Tassi...
