What does everybody make of this one?
I'm going to assume that the title 'Isis Search - April 1st - isis search' has a meaning as well as the clue.
Anyone got any ideas so far?

I think
the title just emphasises it is an Isis search, not the (promised) Ramisis search.
Interestingly, the usual country code is missing...
(So was the Mont Blanc one, but that is
)

When I referred to the title, I was suggesting that as it is 28th of March today and the title says 1st April maybe its an 'April Fools' type of clue

Thanks to Google Street View I've just worked out exactly where this is (where the photo was taken that is).
You're on the right track but it's a lot more devious than you think and a lot closer
The trouble with these pillar things, they all look the same

Hi all.
The coin was located at 'Robertson Corner' on the junction of Whipsnade Roadand Isle Of Wight Lane on the Dunstable Downs a few Yards from the Chiltern Gateway Centre.
Sorry for picture quality, but it was so cold and windy I didn't bother changing the camera settings.
It was really exiting to find one at last.......And good to prove to My Wife that it is possible to find them!
Cheers
Dunk

Hi again.
One thing thats bugging Me is the title. The title is 'Isis search - April 1st - isis search' but was posted on the 28th March. I assumed this was some kind of April Fools reference. Am I missing something or just really stupid?

Well done, lovely day for Isis hunting
but no good waiting for a fine day in this game. Where was the coin actually hidden ?

I don't think this was significant, Sonic Warp time is completeley different to normal time it expands and contracts at random.

It was actually hidden under the base of the monument in a gap in the pointing. We looked around it several times and had just about given up, thinking that we had be beaten to it, but on a final check I scraped some moss away to reveal it
