Dal and MW have been busy compiling the many submissions we’ve received for the Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion Design Contest.  Thanks for all those who have submitted!  They are wonderful, and it will be difficult for us to choose between them for the ultimate end design.

And if you haven’t done so yet, there is still lots of time to send a submission in.  The contest doesn’t end until next week, Wednesday the 21st.    We look forward to seeing them!

But I also wanted to share a brief summary of what Dal and I have planned for the Medallions.

For those who are just learning about these hunts- the idea was inspired from something Forrest said in the MW 2016 Six Questions.  Forrest said,

“I wish I had another treasure to hide in the Appalachians. f”

Well the next best thing will be hidden in those mountains—the Forrest Fenn Gold Medallions!  The front of the Medallion will be decided upon the conclusion of the Design Contest.  The back will hold a special doodle by Forrest with his poem and signature at the end.

OK—Let’s get to the details!

The Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion Treasure Hunts…

*The Treasure Hunts will begin in January 2019.  There will be a total of 10 in this first series of hunts.

*The prize for each hunt is a Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion. (The back design will include a special doodle by Forrest Fenn. It remains secret for the finders)

*A special painted Treasure Stone with a ‘Code’ (and other details) will be hidden (Image of stone will be provided(without code of course)).  This Coded Treasure Stone will be used to claim the Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion.  Dal and I didn’t want to hide the Medallions themselves for a few reasons.

– One was so the Medallions will not get lost or damaged.

-Two was so we will know if hunt is solved and a Medallion is claimed or not.

-Three was because only ONE Medallion may be claimed by a searcher/household.  No Multiple wins please.

*All Special Coded Treasure Stones will be hidden in the Appalachians for this first series of hunts.

*All clues needed to find the precise location for claiming a Medallion will be posted on either Dal’s or MW’s Website.

– FFGM Treasure Hunt #1 clues will be posted on Dal’s Site the first week of January.

-FFGM Treasure Hunt #2 clues will be posted on MW’s Site the second week of January.

Clues for the remaining 8 treasure hunts will be posted 2 per month, one on Dal’s site and one on MW’s, in each of the months: February,        March, April, and May (2019).

*There is not an end date.  The clues will remain on sites until the Medallions are claimed.  Additional clues may be provided if needed.

 

*A second series of Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion Treasure Hunts may be scheduled upon completion of first series if desired.

 

All for now!    This is going to be so awesome!  Who wants to find a Forrest Fenn Gold Medallion?
