Groundspeak says that there is no way to know what the actual one millionth cache was since the running count of active caches fluctuates as caches are archived.

OK, I understand, but it would have been awesome to claim the prestige of placement of it!

The placement of the one millionth cache occurred some time ago. This recent celebration marks one million active caches. The number of caches placed = active caches + archived caches; and that's way over one million.

In the GC forums, addisonbr calculated the one millionth code number to be GC1GBC0, noting the following:
