Scroll Quest
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Scroll Quest is a real life treasure hunt.
A coin is hidden in the continental US or lower 48 states (does not include Alaska or Hawaii). A scroll is then distributed for the amount of 5 US dollars to all those who wish to partcipate. There are clues, cyphers, anagrams, hints, puzzles, riddles, and general history knowledge along with much more contained within the scrolls. All of these clues point towards the location of the coin. The person or group of people who locates and obtains the coin first wins the prize. The prize varies on what theme the current treasure hunt is over. All contain precious stones and/or metals.
These quests inspire people to think about history, geography, symbols, patterns, and general knowledge such as grammar, spelling, and sentence structure.
