 		I think these forums are probably the highest ranked forums in google searching for the contest. So this is probably it Smile
I've seen some 'anonymous', 'ambiguous' questions in yahoo answers asking people to solve the 'riddles' (the clues) without referring to the contest... but otherwise, nothing really.

 		thanks for the phone number, she said that the latest the coin will be placed is midnight on the 21st, so it's more than likely there now, there's no way of knowing wich reagon what coin was found, and as far as she knows, all 23 coins are still up for grabs. (and good luck) Wink

 		'as far as she knows'...
well the virtual coin is definitely claimed already, so there's at most 22, and since she's wrong on that, who knows at this point how many physical coins have been found. No one's got a straight answer, just directions to the website, and I haven't seen anyone link to or mention the page that actually lists which coins are found.

 		Well, this marks day four of hunting my area (I live 20 min away by train) with no luck. As relatively small as the area is, it's still a large piece of turf, with numerous hidey places. I haven't seen weird footprints in the snow, so I haven't found evidence of either a hider, or fellow hunters.

However, today, I did catch a view of my area in the dawnlight that was -amazing-. After this contest is done, I'm going back to hike just because it's so damn beautiful.

Good luck one and all.

Hey everyone. OTher treasure hunting sites are reporting rather credibly that the San Fran token has been found. More credible than..."stop looking, yo, I found one."

So, at least one physical coin has been found, it appears.

 		plus, it's iffy trusting random people saying 'stop looking, I found it'... for obvious reasons. Razz
I'd keep looking until there's official confirmation from DrP on any of the coins -- If there is to be any at all before end-game...
It would be nice to know which are found. They'd better get cracking and get the list up!

My partner and I found some used duct tape stuck in the area we're certain was the hidey place for San Francisco. That probably means we were too late and that someone did beat us to our coin. After tonight's midnight clue is released, that will confirm for us that we did look in the correct spot. It kills me to think that I did look in that exact spot for the past two days, but perhaps the coin had not yet been planted there. Oh well, back to working for a living.

 		San Fran coin
Catherwood,

Can you confirm that the duct tape was taped under a slatted park bench at the Dutch Windmill?? Taped carefully in such a way as to be impossible to see through the slats? If so, that goes far to confirm San Fran is found. Someone at another forum also posted that they saw another person find the coin in such a location....

I know that confirming might be "giving something away" but we hunters in other cities would like to know that at least SOMEONE is finding coins, so we don't feel like we are wasting all our time for coins that don't yet exist.
