Society requirements
These are Society requirements - they also contain the relevant Groundspeak requirements.
Note that:

Groundspeak requirements
Groundspeak requirements are available here.
Key requirements that we need to take into consideration in developing our coin are:
- The final design of each geocoin must be approved by Groundspeak prior to production. Designs must be family friendly and may not include modified versions of the geocaching.com logo.
- Use of the geocaching.com logo is not required. However, if you wish to use the geocaching.com logo, the “geocaching.com” URL must be included beneath the logo and the ‘circle r’ trademark symbol must appear as part of the logo.
- All trackable coins must bear the text, “"Trackable on Geocaching.com" or “Track on Geocaching.com”
- All coins must be predominantly two dimensional. We will allow raised design features and different shapes but, generally speaking, they must be flat.
- Format for coins can contain a prefix (like CA____) and then be followed by a random combination of 4 letters & numbers (we'll generate the numbers, you specify the prefix if you'd like one). So, a typical coin number example would be: CA62h8 or CA124j.
