Journey Geocoin - antique silver

*Discontinued*

This coin was designed by Scavok. Here is his story behind the coin:

With the big distractions all around, the true light is often the small one at the end of the tunnel. There is, of course, beauty in the tangled and complicated. The view along the path (as well as the path itself) is to be enjoyed while journeying to whatever that lighted destination may be.

For the geocacher in all of us, we all occasionally want to go out with no other plans than to get as many finds as we can before day's end. But at the end of the day, what is it that makes us want to go out and cache again tomorrow? There is the long travel, the hunt, the search and guessing game. Normally a find, quick sign and then we do it all over again... we do it for the journey that brings us to the cache; for the anticipation of the find and discoveries along the way.

'Tis better to journey hopefully than to arrive... Sometimes the journey is the destination.

For the art itself I drew the single teardrop shape after seeing some very out of place oasis orchids while visiting the southern deserts of New Mexico. It also has some influence from the fantastical Carlsbad Caverns in seeing natural light far off and overhead while down in a cave. I personally prefer the round coins, so seeing the natural radial patterns in both floral and mineral form added to the effect and finished it off.
