Decoder Clue for GF

Post by Driddy »

I have all of the clues from the 10 caches but I can't make sense out of the directions on the decoder for GF. It is not clear to me what year is referenced by "Last two digits in the year". When I look at the clue that was at the cache and also when I search on the clue, it is not at all clear what year is reference. Would it be possible for the Officers to clarify the clue? I apologize if I am missing something really obvious but I am really perplexed by this.

It is the year that this first happened (which was a first in Maryland, as also in the Country).

Let's say it was 1976 (which it wasn't, but I'm using it as an example since we know we had currency for a long time before that date in America), then the last two digits are 7 & 6. However, F is the last digit and G is the second to last, so GF = 67 - in THIS case, not necessarily for the real decoder.

Another tip - when you find a website that has a lot of information about Maryland Firsts, please use it! I didn't want to list it on the decoder directly for fear of copyright issues.

This was regarding the decoder for CAM.
