I'm not sure if anyone has seen this but Minelab Detectors is giving away a Minelab geocoin and having a contest linked with these geocoins. Here in a link to there geocoin request page: www.geocaching.com/minelabmetaldetectors/request.aspxI tried a while back to get one of these coins but it said they were all out. But when I went there today it accepted my request. we shale see if I get a coin. The "Ultimate" Grand Prize is one trip for two for a six-day/seven-night Mexican Cruise to Cabo, Puerto Vallarta, and Acapulco! One (1) winner will be chosen monthly to win a Minelab vest and will still be eligible for the Grand Prize or first runner-up prize.

The link worked - ostensibly there is a geocoin headed my way. Maybe they'll mess up and send me a metal detector instead! (Hope is a virtue, you know)

Magic! No sooner had I posted that^, and I checked my mail. Along came my Minelab coin, and a micro coin, too! Keep your eyes peeled for those that are shipping, and also for one to be in a cache near you!

Ok, so I'm confused. Now that the newness of getting the coins in the mail has subsided, I was going to activate the coins. Turns out that only the micro has a tracking number...that is barely legible. When others start seeing theirs, let us know what you get in the package!

Nothing delivered to the house. Picked up one at an event in Houston, but can't find the magnifying glass that's required to read the tracking number. Just because someone can engrave a number that small doesn't mean they should.

Totally agree about the size of engraving. Even more surprised that they included a full-size coin to keep--untrackable.

I haven't seem one yet. Or maybe I have & just didn't have my glasses on?
