Title: [WTB] Physical bitcoins - Bitcoin Exchange of New Orleans
Post by: fvs114 on March 27, 2015, 07:03:33 AM

Hi,

I'm looking for 5BTC and 10BTC coins or set of all three coins.

PM or reply offers including shipping to EU.

Why did you include a reference to New Orleans if you are looking for shipping to the EU?

There was a person not long ago who was giving out their shipping address to people who were selling physical coins, were claiming they would be able to pay for them in the very near future and then never ended up paying for them - likely in hopes the coins would be shipped out without payment.

I would say that anyone considering to sell any coins should be very careful in any situation

Are these New Oreleans coins loaded with bitcoins or are they novelty coins?

Looks like he still has them for sale via his website -> http://www.nolacoin.com/ (I assume they are loaded based on his prices)

A bit scratched and it was the first coin I had, so I handled it without gloves. I learnt very quickly that I shouldn't do that  :-\

There is somebody on eBay periodically selling the old NolanCoins, maybe check there if you don't reach a deal here. The new ones are nice and have some of the lowest premiums for loaded physical Bitcoins.

I'm also looking for a set of the 1st ones too.   There is a person on ebay asking a $109 for the set, but I was hoping to get them for less.

I am still confused.

On the thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=149229.0
It say that they are unloaded.

But on the webpage does it say that they are loaded?
Can anybody confirm if they are loaded or not?

2nd series should be loaded, as you get also private key , 1st series are not.

The above is correct.  2nd Series normally is funded.

It may be possible to get the 2nd Series as Unfunded.  Ask the creator, Arash on his site to mark them as Buyer Funded.  I have a set of 3 like that given as a gift.  Beautiful coins.

Thank you very much, they sure looks nice.
I also like the whole "New Oreleans" theme, it is a shame they never became more popular,
came a bit late to bitcoin so do not know what happen to them.
Still nice coins.Good luck to OP for finding some.
