Geons are particle-like electrovacua. The concept is well-defined, but it still lacks a proper first example. Emerging as such is a self-confined exact 2-parameter pp-wave non-Dirac monopole { \cal G} with primordial Q/r^2 (r\geq r_o) field plus higher moments. { \cal G} has effective mass, independently-scaled NUT-like charge \kappa|Q|=2r_o as diameter, and spin. { \cal G} { \em cannot} have actual { \sc em} charge $Q$ (by \partial{ \cal G}=0), Ricci-flat limits, nor spacetime or Dirac-string singularities, but Dirac's quantization condition holds. { \cal G}/2, as an upgraded `Kerr-Newman' alternative or { \cal S}_Q geon, carries actual charge Q confined by topology on a round-S^2[r_o] physical singularity on \partial{ \cal S}_Q\neq0. { \cal G} and { \cal S}_Q offer exact analytic models in particle physics and cosmology, notably for primordial gravitational waves, inflation, and pre-galactic dynamics.
