The Jewels Are Complete

We’ve periodically released new Munzee Jewels to our collection over the past two years. Now, the final jewel is ready to make it’s appearance. Along with that jewel comes, of course, a badge. virtual_amethyst

We’re very happy to announce the newest and final jewel, the Amethyst. The Amethyst is a virtual jewel that is slightly different than others. The Amethyst CANNOT be captured using a blast cap. Also, unlike other virtual munzees, you have to be within 150 feet to capture the Amethyst. An Amethyst will be credited to accounts of users who subscribe to the August MunzPak.

  • Diamond (available in the Munzee Store)
  • Ruby (limited availability)
  • Aquamarine (available in Munzee Store)
  • Topaz (only available in MunzPak)
  • Virtual Emerald (only available as part of Official Munzee Gardens)
  • Virtual Amethyst (currently only available in MunzPak)
