    Description

    One day before New Year's Eve 2002,
    Go JayBee
    from Portland, Oregon signed up as a member of Groundspeak.
    Together with
    LitLens
    , he quickly found
    pleasure in the cache search, including the TravelBugs and
    signature items
    that could be found in the caches from time to time.
    Go JayBee left z.
    B. in some cache a vacuum-sealed, odorless mini Tabasco bottle, trademark also on his profile picture.
    In the summer of 2004 he discovered the possibilities of exchanging ideas in the geocaching forum and began to be interested in geocoins.
    Now the next step was logically to think about your own geocoin.
    On August 15, 2005,
    Go hired JayBee
    in
    Forum presented
    the finished artwork of his future non-trackable signature coin.
    His goal was to use the coin primarily for swapping.
    He must have had some negative
    experiences
    , because in another
    thread he
    described quite precisely in which form exchange coins should be sent in order not to be lost.
    Exactly 4 weeks later, the first finished coins reached the exchange partners and they found favor.
    The 32 x 4 mm, non-trackable signature coin is the first
    Geocoin to be released
    with "
    glow-in-the-dark
    " effects.
    So it can
    glow in the dark
    .
    The coin presented here show a coastal landscape with a sailboat and a Tabasco bottle in the lighthouse style, referring to the
    signature items deposited
    by
    Go JayBee
    and
    LitLens'
    special interest
    in lighthouses.
    The owner names are in the two lighthouse beams.
    Above it says "GeoCaching WorldWide".
    On the back is the centrally positioned geocaching
    G
    "We each go our own way But still end up in the same place" (We all go our own way, but still end up in the same place).
    This proverb is very well visualized by the opposing shoe prints that glow in the dark on the Black Nickel coin.
    The very first glow in the dark geocoin
