Title: [Auction] 3D laser engraved Crystal physical bitcoin
Post by: markj113 on February 09, 2017, 09:45:30 AM
Up for auction is my first 3D laser engraved crystal physical bitcoin complete with LED lit base and presentation box.

Dimensions = 80mm X 54mm X 45mm

The item can be supplied unloaded or loaded with 1BTC

The coin has a real convex look within the crystal and pops when the LED light base hits it.

Excuse the crap pictures, photography isnt my strong point and these are just a camera phone job :)

This looks, and sounds amazing on so many levels!

Well done on executing this one, awesome.

Do you have any plans on making it a series or will you make some 1off productions with the same concept?

Either way, love this piece, hope to see more, thank you!

I bid 0.2BTC

If demand is there I may make some more possibly with varying designs but numbers will always be kept very low e.g. and edition of 3 items.

I will also create a matching certificate for whoever gets this one though stating its the very first one created.

Good work.   I had a similar idea not too long ago, but even in my head it didn't look half as nice as yours.

Nice idea and nicely made. I've seen these before but would never have even thought about making one like this. Very creative if you OP!
How would the private key be stored? Wouldn't you still be able to see it if one side was covered?

The private key will be hidden with a hologram,  I can either place it on the LED base so the hologram can be seen through the crystal or it can be placed on the top/bottom of the crystal with the back of the paper blacked out so the key cant be seen through the crystal.

Another option is to just provide the hologram to the buyer and he can place it where he chooses when he has the item in hand.

Looks great!  I haven't seen anything like this yet and will be keeping my eye on it.  If you decide to sell them for the price of ~0.1BTC/ea. I would definitely be interested in picking one up.  :)

Question.... Does the QR code scan.......

Question.... Does the QR code scan.......

I saved the image from the OP to my camera roll on my iPhone.
When I open the photo in QR Reader it automatically detected the QR and showed the public key so I think it's fair to say that it does  :D

The only reason I say this is because it is reversed....  everything that should be black for QR is White...

Originally the QR code was just done for cosmetic design reasons.

However I have just checked it using "QR Code Reader" on Android and it reads perfectly when scanned directly from the crystal :)

A sneak peak of the image to be used in my next piece.

Next one is on a larger crystal and is based on Banksy's Grin Reaper with a death of fiat message :)
