Welcome! This is a website that everyone can build together. It's easy!

Trackable Geocoins HomeThis is a featured page

A wiki dedicated to trackable travelling geocoins.
BelKens UK Traveller #122

This site is being built by forthferalz coin addict since 2006, to replace the unfortunately defunct trackablecoins.com wiki - I hope you find the wysiwig format here easy and contribute whatever you can to the database for all to enjoy. Just sign in with your existing Facebook account or make a separate Wetpaint account.

Note: NOT ALL GEOCOINS ARE TRACKED AT GEOCACHING.COM
If the website is not engraved on the coin or the number appears to be a sequential number try sigitem.com first then our sister site untrackablegeocoins.wetpaint.com
Coins tracked on various websites other than geocaching.com which are commonly mistaken as untrackable are also known as 'iconless geocoins' - find them under "i"
General geocoin information;

*geocaching.com/tracklists all geocaching.com trackablecoins

When creating a new listing webpage
1. Please check with the alphabetic listing "all names and icons" page first for the official name and copy it exactly. If you can find a link to an active travelling coin put a link there ( enter the name into geocaching.com/track and look around for one )

2. From the left column menu select the appropriate letter of the alphabet and insert a new page (as a subpage) using a template from the dropdown menu

3. Include descriptive "keyword tags" ( see available tags below - or if you add a new tag make sure to add it to this home page so it can be searched easily)
and a graphic description eg. "gold mushroom shaped coin with cutout and Fliegenpilz on the reverse" as well as photographs so people who do not know the name of a certain geocoin can search for it. This may even help return a lost coin into circulation.
4. Not all the tools work with Safari - Mac users should use Firefox or internet explorer

5. When adding a personal coin which is not your own design consider sending a courtesy notification email to the cacher via geocaching.com so they can proof and update the page.
