Thank you both for your interest!! Right now we are not taking reservations, but if this changes it will be first-come, first-served (and so your reservations would take priority).

Really awesome looking rolls there :D


The new paper with both names looks awesome ;D

This is a very cool surprise!  

An excellent collaboration with Friends of Satoshi & The Bitcoin Penny.  Well done!

Yep...I am definitely interested in this.  ;D

I'd like to put in an order for TWO of each:

Short Roll
Classic Roll

Thank you for creating these rarity rolls for all the Bitcoin Penny fans out there.

Thank you GP!


Regarding the Short Rolls, I do need to clarify the situation.

Unfortunately, there will not be SR stock at launch. Please let me explain:


During the course of the regular Bitcoin Penny Sales, Another forum member approached BP with interest to buy 6 short rolls. Chris and I made the decision to honor this request, and allowed said member to purchase 6 short rolls. Shortly after this request, however, we decided that this created an unfair field whereby one member could purchase nearly the entire stock. Therefore, we instituted the Limit of 2 Per Customer. At this point, we had two options 1) Renege on forum member's order entirely or 2) Process the order and make the adjustment after the fact.

We decided on the latter, since it was of no fault of the member.


Now, as for total SR stock - 4 short rolls still remain in FOS reserves (in addition to 3 Classic rolls). We plan on auctioning these off in the near future, so fear not, there is still hope to get a SR after all.


I apologize to everyone for this situation. But please know that FOS has learned from this experience and we will be sure to institute limits (as necessary) before we agree to any direct orders.

Current Reservations (unofficial):

Minerjones: 1 Classic
Vizique: 2 Classic (OK if you switch to 1, I know you are on the fence)
Greenplastic: 2 Classic

7 Classic Rolls Remain (Unofficial Count)

It's cool, still want two to go with the FoS packs I have.

Until I sell one I want to maintain each pack with as many FoS releases as I can ;)

I already have so many Bitcoin Pennies (I think I have over 120 left to give away), so I'm not sure if I want to buy a whole roll, but I do want one of the new 2017 Bitcoin Pennies and a special mint SN / S. NAKAMOTO coin.

Minerjones, can I buy one of each from you? ;D

A few of the doodles that will be included in your FOS orders! ;D

(Online sales start @ 8PM EST.)

And one that didn't start out as an official doodle, but I thought that I'd include it with the FOS doodles anyway. It was simply done to test and compare a new black doodle pen to my old standard black doodle pen.

thank you, ordered :)

Just documenting the start of a new era of BitcoinPenny artwork. If the artwork going forward is not done in the same style, with the same pen, etc., as the those that came before it we're witnessing the end of the "first era" of BitcoinPenny art. All the work that comes before the Leaning Tower of Pisa piece just went up in value!

And the Leaning Tower of Pisa piece probably has its own unique value given that it's "a test" and the first image of the new era.

Just perused your website, I'm new to the Bitcoin schwag scene.

What's the difference between the regular and the S. Nakamato coins? How do I know the difference?

Thanks.

Awesome, great to hear and welcome!  :)

The S. Nakamoto coins display the initials "SN" under the date of mintage "2017". This year, the regular coins display the word "IRIE", which is roughly translated: "To be at total peace with your current state of being. The way you feel when you have no worries." Each year the regular coins vary, anyone has the opportunity to put their own name (or any initials they want) on the coin, for example, last year the regular coins had "DAVE", based on whoever wins the auction.

When you purchase a BPxFoS classic roll, you get 37 regular coins and 3 SNs!

Great, two more questions,

(1) What language is "IRIE" in?

(2) What auction allow us the opportunity to get our name or initials on a future coin?

Thanks!

Thanks for asking, HabBear! :)

Our standard mint coins have "IRIE" printed on the front below the date, and they have "MINTED IN USA" printed on the reverse side at the bottom. We minted 2,000+ of these coins.

Our special mint coins have "SN" printed (in script) on the front below the date, and they have "S. Nakamoto" printed (in script) on the reverse side at the bottom. We minted these coins in limited quantities, and the only way to get one (besides the secondary market) is to purchase one of our Short Rolls, Classic Rolls, or Special Edition Rolls.

Short Roll (20 Coins) = 19 IRIE + 1 SN.
Classic Roll (40 Coins) = 37 IRIE + 3 SN.
Special Edition Roll (40 Coins) = 40 SN.

We like to include a few special mint coins inside our Short Rolls and Classic Rolls as a fun nod to the hobby of coin roll hunting. That's where a coin collector buys a roll of common coins (like pennies, quarters, or half-dollars), cracks it open, then hunts inside while hoping to discover a special, rare coin. It's a pretty fun and inexpensive hobby, and we thought that we'd bring a touch of that fun to our own rolls. ;)

I hope that explains it. If not, then please feel free to ask more questions. We like questions. :)

Regards,
Chris @ The Bitcoin Penny Co.

(1) I believe IRIE is a common greeting in Jamaica. And at greenplastic's house. ;)

(2) Every year, in late winter or early spring, before we release our new coins, we hold an auction for the initials on our standard mint coins. (You can find a link to our 2017 auction below.) We'll hold another auction in early 2018.

[AUCTION] The NEW 2017 Bitcoin Penny™ has YOUR NAME on it! (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1758128.msg17556474#msg17556474)

I have been to Jamaica and IRIE basically means, "alright" ... or, as urban dictionary would say - Everyting is irie mon (http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=irie)

Cheers! :)
