I aggressively collected geocoins from May 2006 through to the end of 2008. Presented here are 986 of the approximately 1,040 geocoins I acquired during the frenzy.

Bernd B's Route 208 (Pol. Gun)

Bernd B's Route 208 (Pol. Gun)

Bernd B is a cacher from northern Germany, and this is his personal geocoin. It commemorates Bundestrasse 208, a route that takes you approximately 130 km from Hamburg to Mecklenburg, just south of Wismar on the Baltic Sea. You could get there by taking a major highway, but Route 208 appears to go through the countryside, and everybody knows that's where the real action is!

Bernd B issued 350 geocoins in Polished Gun (this geocoin), 100 geocoins in Matt Chrome, and 50 in Matt Gun. It can difficult to distinguish the Matt Gun geocoin from the Polished Gun geocoin. The latter is shiny (polished), and the former has a slight brownish tinge. Both geocoins have to be tipped in the light to distinguish the difference. To make it even more confusing, I think "Polished Gun" is the same as "Black Nickel."

The tracking number for this geocoin is hidden along the bottom edge.
