I guess this is a new feature? Either way I dont think I want my coin collected - Its fun to see it keep popping up all over the place. I've got one thats left its English come and has made it to sunny Spain!

The Pony Express Sesquicentennial geocoin IS trackable (and collectable) and the American Red Cross geocoin that IS Trackable. I aalso have my own personal pathtag. I did my own designs and since I live in the city where the Pony Express started it seemed like a natural fit. Email me if you would like to own one of my coins for EITHER collection or for travelling. I got into geocoins and travel bugs so much I had a few made.

One of the geocoins was in a cache that was muggled but all of the rest were "collected" by someone. Im terrible at moving TBs (they seem to get hiden away somewhere) so I usualy just write down the number and do a discover. As for muggled trackables

Some have been released into the wild but most are kept in my collection. In the search for a signature item I came across “pathtags” that cannot be tracked on geocaching.com but can be logged on pathtags.com Unlike geocoins pathtags are purchased 100 at a time and you expect that whoever finds it will keep it for their own you just hope they will log the tag so that it will show up on your map. Pathtags look like a one inch geocoin with a hole and a 7 digit number on the back Between my account and my wife’s we have about 200 activated geocoins.

I still put them out there but I would like to know the name of the person who says they keep ANY coin they find! You can not share them for discovery because then I would know since it is registered to ME! I am sure most cachers would also like to know who this person is. I like when my coin makes it to Europe as they seem to stay active as opposed to here in the USA! What does that say about us?! I have many coins out there and some are traveling but many are stolen!
