Does each coin contain 0.1 btc?

No, these are buyer-funded coins.

Waw, so $460 for $80 bucks worth of silver and stickers. I'll be watching this thread.

If you buy these from their website, It would be 0.14BTC per coin.
So, 2.8BTC for the 20 (excluding shipping).

Shipping Charge would include another 0.19BTC making the total at 2.99BTC.
Or 1379 Dollars.

Which is a lot of money.

If you want to buy "silver" and "stickers" there are other places to buy them.  Like saying wow someone paid $2,000 for a blank canvas with some $5.00 paint on it

Raw silver is not what is being sold. What is being sold are coins that are made out of silver that are limited in the number produced and have a collector's value (based on the current market).

The coins are "stamped" (I think this is the right word) in a very specific way, and lealana coins often received very high grades from ANACS, which means there are very few problems with the coins.

The same is true for what you call the stickers (others call them holograms), as they protect the private keys holding the digital value "in" the coin, and makes it evident when the hologram is peeled, protecting the integrity of the coin.

Nicely put.

really  nice auction here smoothie ! i am tempted...  ::)

Who are you kidding? ANYONE can go to a mint and have their own silver coins stamped. Go to a sticker shop and get holograms produced. There is no 'art' comparison here. That's like saying a photocopy of the Mona Lisa is art. BTW where is your bid?

And who designs the coins, creates the dies to stamp the coins, designs the holograms?

Small production runs of coins are cheap.

Hate to carry on, on smoothies thread so will be my last post

You lost me when you said "anyone can go to a sticker shop".  Go call up and get a quote for a custom security hologram....  and your mona lisa print comparison is apples to oranges.  Smoothie doesnt "copy" anything.  Go get a cost for everything then put in the labor of manufacuring a functional coin "wallet" add in the costs and then you will find out the margins arent that high. 

Smoothies pieces are one of my personal favorites, really nice in hand.  And as far as my bid, i own a bunch of these already as well as many other lealana pieces.....where is your bid?
