Update: PhOtOmOm geocoinOne of the delights of geocaching for me is aquiring different geocoins. Each geocoin comes with its own unique icon. When I discover a new tyoe of coin, a new icon is added to my personal profile on geocaching.com. It's a bit like virtual stamp collecting, I suppose.
Last year, I picked up a PhOtOmOm geocoin whilst on an epic round trip of Wales, which also included Cheshire and Staffordshire. The coin was carrying the "generic geocoin" icon. Basically, the "generic" icon is the "poor man's option" - it cost's more to commission a new icon, so many geocoins just have the cheaper, "generic" icon.
