The Seven Deadly Ducks Geocoin

We are celebrating 15 years of trackables! 

Way back in 2001, the first trackables were sent to travel the world. Geocaching.com founder Jeremy Irish released 7 "Deadly Ducks" (which were really rubber duckies) into the wild and let people know to move them from geocache to geocache. 

Even though this first trackable was before the invention of the Geocoin, we celebrate this monumental shift in the game with a Geocoin! The Seven Deadly Ducks coin can take you through a vortex all the way back to 2001 as it travels the world, or will make any collection 7 ducks better!

Moun10Bike 15 Year Tribute Geocoin

In the fall of 2001, one of the original geocachers, Jon Stanley (better known as Moun10Bike), decided to take the new trackables concept a step further when he minted the very first Geocoins. 

Moun10Bike Geocoins are perhaps the most coveted coins in the geocaching world. It is a thrill for any geocacher just to have seen one, and there are many epic stories of their adventures traveling the world. 

As we celebrate 15 Years of Trackables, we wanted to find a way to have a worthy tribute. We worked with celebrated designer Christian Mackey to create a coin that celebrates and honors this true original. Celebrate the legend with the Moun10Bike Tribute Geocoin!

More penguins

http://www.kiwicachers.co.nz/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=65_70&products_id=417 Percy hails from the South Pole where he enjoys caching in colder climates. However, he has always longed for tropical climes, but he can also be spotted along caches in hot areas. All Cache Buddies are made of aluminum, just like travel bugs and come with a chain so that it may be attached to another item. Percy the Penguin measures just under 2".

Mail Call

Something good arrived totally unexpected in the KiwiCachers mailbox today. A friend of the store in Timaru was cleaning out the house after the kids had moved out, preparing to move house, and came across a couple of trackables. Not sure what to do with them they posted them to us. Two owners are going to be happy that their trackables, missing since 2008 and 2012, are back in circulation.

Mega Celebration Time

The Christchurch Mega event is fast approaching and here at KiwiCachers we are getting excited. Often Mega events are where geocachers celebrate milestones, whether it be a number of thousands of finds, most finds in a day, or some other special occasion they have been working towards.


Here at KiwiCachers we want to help those who are going to make attending Mega2015 a special occasion. If you are making your Mega attendance log a special one then we are offering a 10% discount for the Geo-Achievement coin that celebrates that milestone. All you have to do is order the coin online and select the store pickup and we will have it for you at the Mega event. We've added a range of Find coins, if the one you would like isn't there, let us know and we will add it.


In some cases we might have to order in these coins so we have set a cut off date of the 8th October to make sure we have plenty of time for you to get your special coin for you.


Over the weekend we will be adding more Time and Challenge coins to the store so make sure you come back and check.


Oh, and it doesn't have to be a Geo-Achievement coin. If there is anything else you would like feel free to order that too, choose the store pickup, and we will have it for you, saving on shipping and some discount.


Just use the coupon code NZMEGA2015 when placing your order.

Travel Booby

Featured on this tag is a Blue-Footed Booby, a seabird with brightly colored feet and a fantastic mating display. These birds can be found all the way from the Gulf of California to South America and Peru, with many of them nesting on the Galápagos Islands.
A new study shows that the Blue-Footed Booby’s population is declining on theGalápagos Islands. Today, their numbers are about 6,000 – 7,000, compared to 20,000 in the 1960’s. At the same time, the sardine population has fallen greatly. Past research has shown that sardines make up most of the Booby’s diet, especially during breeding time. A lack of sardines results in underfed seabirds and few newborns. Read more here:http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2014/04/140425-galapagos-blue-footed-booby-endangered-birds-science-animals/
This first batch is being sold in a special limited edition large size –  33mm wide by 50mm tall. Afterwards, they will become a regular size in our great collection of trackable travelers. Get yours now!
  • Measures 2 inches (50mm) tall
  • Soft enamel colors
  • Chain included to attach to your favorite traveling item
  • Trackable on Geocaching.com
  • Has a unique icon that will show on your profile when you log a discovery
