Description
Find unique house or property numbers with a difference...
You must find house/street/property numbers with a difference - meaning strange, shaped, colored, made, positioned etc... Anything different to the normal Letterbox/Number in front of a house as there is already a cache for letterboxes.....
I have seen quite a few different ones that make you stop and look on my travels while geocaching around the country...
To log this take a photo of yourself and or your GPS in front of the unique structure and post it with your find along with the co-ordinates....

We are enjoying an (almost) sunny day after a pretty sold rain event by checking out some trig points around Lake Macquarie.
Headed down to Wangi on the way to fulfil the challenge of a different locationless scavenger hunt and noticed this building so we screeched to a stop to grab a photo.

This house number was quite intriguing, it looks hand made, shaped into the house number, made out of extra large chains

This week I had to go into Sydney's CBD to attend some training. The address was 60 Margaret St and, after finally finding Margaret St my next task of course was to find the right building. The street signs confused me but I finally came across #50, then #48 .... Ah ha! Back in the other direction.... The photo shows the huge "60" that I had somehow managed to walk past and not notice. Anyway the training went well and I have nabbed for myself another locationless. TFTC!
In Griffith - sjame but this was the most unusual one I could find this evening. Will get coords when I get home.
Driving near our holiday house I went past this large house number.
Thank you Margieh for this locationless cache.

I spotted this number while walking the dog this morning.
I've been looking ages for a number so I could log this cache for States of the Nation game and ended up finding this one next door
Thank you for this cache.

Driving along Deviot Road (Tas) we came upon a very colourful Minions Mailbox. Certainly something out of the ordinary. Thanks MargieH for providing this locationless cache.
Out for a night and day with my hubby and took a list of the locationless caches for the Summer scav series in case we happened upon any and we had a lucky one here when we were heading out for breakfast. Kinda hope the owners weren't watching! Thanks for the cache!
went out for a driv today with ACTchil to get some locationless caches for the SoN game and we found this mosaic mailbox with letters as number so thought it fitted in with the requirement. tftc MARGIEH

I thought this one was different and rather impressive, although hard to photograph. The postie shouldn't miss this one.
Rated: for Overall Experience
It may be a low number but it "stands out". Spotted it while out for a walk this evening after a 40 degree day.
Its a big # 7, standing at roughly 2 metres high, the number houses the letterbox. Reckon the local postie won't have any íssues finding the right address.. thanks..!!

Applethorpe, Queensland has this interesting attention grabber showing a verticle property number.
This location is just off Salamanca Place heading into Salamanca Square just behind the restaurant strip. There are a couple of business tucked in this little laneway but I have no need to use any of them so have just admired the address plate every time I've walked past. My office is about 100m away.

Could be one of the larger numbers going round. This number 2 is for the swimming pool at this address.

Out in Nedlands. Found The GC cache previously.
Now to grab the numbers.
Now to grab the numbers.
This is actually our house number, painted for us by our daughter some years ago, so it is very unique.
As I use my iPad as a camera and GPS it is not possible to include it in the photo.
It is right next to a GC cache so cannot post the coordinates as well due to the proximity rule.
If this doesn't meet the requirements for this Locationless, I am happy to delete it and try elsewhere.
Thankyou for the Locationless and the opportunity to increase my GA knowledge.

#GA2217 - 00:00; Spotted this interesting house number while I was passing through Tarago, NSW on a caching mission. Talk about recycling, this one has everything. All it needs is a house, although there is one nearby which might be it! TFTC Margieh

Not too sure if the image up top is meant to be an owl or a pussycat. Didn't even notice it until I was uploading the pic.

You can't really miss "The Igloo" sign in Tolosa St, Glenorchy.
I was on my way to the Bingo Event in Perth CBD, and walked right past this property on my way, and saw this very cute number, with mice/rats/rodents sitting on it, and it reminded me of this cache!
Liked this number with the gecko stencils ...

Unique House Number on Frankford Road, Glengarry, Tasmania
Whilst driving home along the Exeter Highway, we came across this house number at boarding kennels. St Bernards have a keg of medicinal rum around their necks – this expectant pooch has a a tag with his house number.

This number was seen on Poets Road, Hobart, Tasmania on the way to the cache Powerfull Chemical Conundrum 04. This road is the "highway" to many a cache placed on Knocklofty, a hill at the base of Mt Wellington. TFTC and cheers; OldSaint.

Saw this one in a little enclave at Jacobs Well. Very smart new homes in a very old settlement. Just large white pebbles on the backing tile, but most effective I thought. It must be obvious by now that I just LOVE this cache and look for numbers all the time, wherever I am.

Quite the largest display I've seen surrounding a house number. This one's on Latimer Road Buccan south of Beenleigh and west of the motorway running between Brisbane and Gold Coast. It's a rural and acreage area. There is even the remnants of an old saddle hanging on the back wall, with all the straw stuffing out.

Saw this number while I take 3-Turns at Gembrook to find multi cache.

Saw this one on Latimers Crossing Rd when I was placing caches at Gilston. It had a back and a front. Then I went across the road to look at the view and the owner came out and asked me why I was taking photos etc. Fortunately I happened to have some Muggle Cards with me and gave him one and he was fine with it. Lovely area on a sunny Sunday afternoon.

Saw this one from the street and moved in for closer look. then saw its neighbour, then saw some wheely old wheels. So it was worth stopping for 3 locationless finds. It so happened that the house was for sale so no one could be surprised at someone looking through the gate!

Rather nice number in semi rural area. I continue to be surprised at how many different ways there are to show your house number. Love this locationless, thank you.

These big bold 3 dimensional numbers certainly stand out at the top of Gilston Road. Oh that all house numbers were so easy to see! I think the clean white numbers against the dark red wall is a really good look too.

This one certainly catches the eye! It's in the Cedar Creek area just off Beaudesert Beenleigh Rd. Also had an interesting letter box for another locationless find so well worth stopping.

Saw this on a lovely drive in still rural area north of Gold Coast. First I saw a couple of wallabies beside the road. The house with this number also had gnomes in the yard. That's a yellow bougainvillea growing over the fence - most unusual here. Over the road was the largest bull I have ever seen.

Another in the same street in Southport. It's an area where some older houses have been smartened up, and has a very trendy feel about it. This one is house number and street in one.

Pretty little number in Southport. Don't know if it's homemade or not but it certainly is effective. The white pebbles against the grey fence really stand out. I look for these all the time now.

This was an example of how to do it in semi rural acreage areas where a block covers two or more numbers.Found on way home from the Queens Land 10 Years On Anniversary event. We cached until dark. Still loving this locationless thanks Margieh!

Salamanca Market is a very busy little market on a Sat morning at the waterfront in Hobart. Tourists and locals love the array of old buildings, food and crafts but today I was only interested in a picture of the these numbers which are for what is known as the Silos. The Hobart Silos are situated at the southern end of Salamanca and are regarded as Hobarts premier address. The size of the numbers are an indication of the size (cost) of the apartments - you will need at least a million or more dollars to buy one!
Thanks for the cache Margieh

This number on Clagiraba Rd isn't "made" of anything! It's the empty space created by the the metal shape. I'm going to log this one for the letter box as well. Rugged like the hilly country in Clagiraba.
