It took me more than a year to get this set made and I'm really proud of the result of the same. These turned out really great. These coins are split in two pieces and have a magnet in between them. Check this out:

ill take set 25.

Is there a backside also ?  ??? 8)

 What's the mintage and is there a holo on the other side ?  

haha that would be quite interesting. a half holo on each part of the coin.

yes there is backside, adding pictures soon

There is no holo on the back as that was impossible to make them in two pieces otherwise.
The mintage is 50

These coins look awesome.

I'd definitely recommend you check out these GIFs:

For some reason, I can't embed them. Please do so if you know how to embed GIFs.

thanks for posting them cryptoheadd, added them to OP

Wow! That's a very interesting concept. Great job, Sky! I can't wait to see the reverse side.  :)

Regards,
Me

thank you :)
the pics of reverse side have been added

Impressed!   I like your creativity with this coin magnet halving release.

Nice presentation too.  I'd like #50, if available. Thanks you..

thank you! :)
it was real fun to make them and i love playing with magnets :D
Reserved #50

Very cool idea!  I'd like to reserve lowest # available. 

thank you :)
#7 has been reserved for you

Lowest. # poss please dude, these look sick. Great to see something innovative here

thanks man
#8 reserved  :)

Very nice chronicsky, I'm glad to see someone finally pulled off the 2 pieced coin design!  :)

I'd like to reserve the lowest possible set but I do want to see if I can get the matching number for my original Worldly Treasures coins.  I'm unsure which number I received so I'll have to check sometime this weekend and get back to you.

thank you :)
I still need to put straight the old series which i will do soon...
you got #10 in the old set as per my records but its already taken , have reserved #9 for now

Hey Digicoinuser,

Just saw that you have #10 of the Series A coin set, so If you want you can have my reservation of #10 for the Block-halving set. :D
@Sky, Please reserve #12 for me. :)

Regards,
Vibhor

thanks alot cryptoheadd!
i have reserved #9 and #12 along with 10 still for cryptoheadd
will mark #9 free and #10 for digi and #12 for cryptoheadd if both agree :)

Congrats on the release!

I have been wanting to do something sort of similar to this but I didn't think it'd be possible! If I decide to pursue my idea, I'll be coming to you for some contacts  ;D

thanks!

i wanted to make something sort of puzzle but it turned out rather hard to do it with exact halves, to show halving. So had to resort to magnet, it's still much fun though...
one can add various finish together for fun :D
And you're welcome anytime you need to ask something man :)

awesome work there!!
sets 14 and 16 please

Viz

thanks

Reserved :)

That will work for me, thanks cryptoheadd!!   ;D

sounds good!

Updated!!

The bottom right corner is the same as the one in the left of the image above that. :)
My phone's camera is not the best. :P

Regards

I hope that hybridsole will grant my request. :)

thanks cryptoheadd
hahah yeah the lightning effect!

i will put good pictures once i have access to coins :)

what request are we talking about?

Given the recent jump in price of Bitcoin and volatility.
The price has been changed to 300$ straight.

OP has been updated with the same.
Thank you

Sounds good!

more to go out soon :D

Still many to grab :)

Sky, I think I speak for everyone when I say I am glad you are a part of this community. Not only as a purveyor, but now as a contributor as well. I applaud you on your effort with this project, and hope to see more creations from you in the future!

Look forward to receiving my set!

thanks alot max, your words really mean a lot :)

You were a great inspiration for me to try something different :)

Got my set in yesterday, everything turned out great!  Really like the design of these coins and solid presentation with the box + COA.  :)

That's nice to hear that you got them
maybe add some pictures ? :D

Definitely!  Some photos are below:

Since you are obviously trying to hide things from the public, I will be calling you out in each and every thread until you provide an answer. My response to your last post:

I'd rather make nothing than make overpriced garbage. ::)

What's what they are there for, questioning whether the asking price is justified and whether a bid would make sense. Do you, or do you not know the type of magnet used in them? It does not seem like you do, otherwise you'd have already answered this trivial question.

You have deeply hurt my by not allowing me to bid/purchase shitcoins. It's not like, one could use a shill account to do this and it's not like you are not familiar with this.::)

You've done it all, and more. Anyways, who's to say that you still aren't doing it today? You are no in position of calling out anyone based on their posting habits considering that you are directly responsible for a lot of garbage generated on this forum, and any scam executed by an account that you've sold.

i have already been so much stressed when the thread of that accusation was made and tried explaining everything and anything asked but well.. let it be

---

Nice to know your opinion about my coins, i am still learning and exploring all the possiblities slowly. I will try to make something better in future.

The magnets used? Interesting, Never knew there were types but google shows me 4 types which i do not understand at all.
I will ask the mint and update the thread When i get to know :D

About the pricing, thanks for your opinion about them being costly, no wonder there are still many left.
I will just wait it out so they get sold slowly at the same price:)

See. Was that so hard? You could have avoided unecessary posts by just saying "I do not know.".

There is no metal value to fall back on, for an asking price of $300. In comparison, $300 can net a few ounces of some nice looking silver coins. The problem with manufacturers is that they do not understand the value from someone else's viewpoint. You are not Kialara, thus you can't really hope to sell out quickly with high premiums like they do (well, nobody can nowadays).

---

Anyways, I'll hesitate posting until I see an answer to that question (from the mint).

What are you doing, @Lauda? Your behavior is inappropriate. It feels like bullying.

Glad to see an answer to stop you from posting!

I won't be updating the thread with type of magnet but will let any interested buyer know once i get to know.
Cheers

Thanks hephaist0s
He does that and calls it nice. glad he ain't a mod anymore- wonder what some people might have went through during that time..
I am done getting pissed at his posts since long.

That's exactly what it is and Lauda well knows this.
But, as Lauda has admitted frequently in various channels, it enjoys this behaviour and it suits its need to see others suffer in some way.

Hey Sky! I have a question about the reverse side / hologram. How does it work? Is it possible to seal the coin in with the hologram? I like the idea that to "break open" the coin, you can literally split it!


Great work on this release, very unique!

Hello,

There is no hologram on the reverse side.
I did make first the back side so for a hologram but it was very odd trying to paste the hologram on it, it destroyed the whole idea of making them in two parts,but then i thought of making two half holograms but that also  seemed kind of strange to me.

The back is simply a little raised with world map on it as you can see here  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1946010.msg19330054#msg19330054)

There is hologram though, on back side of the COA :)

Thanks :D

What exactly is "inappropriate" or "bullying"? Pointing out that the person who is selling the product does not even know what it actually contains? Pointing out that the materials used are very cheap, and that the whole offering has an absurd markup? ::) Exposing idiots who try to abuse the market often leads to salty individuals, as you can see by those who respond where I do or the reputation section. All that I can tell you is: "Go cry to someone who cares.".

How to stab yourself in the foot 101. My "army of alts" are all interested buyers and want to see you publicly post the type of magnet. >:(

Lauda,

Are you suggesting that chronicsky is misleading or misrepresenting what the product is? Otherwise, it should be of no concern what you value this at or whether you feel it is overpriced.  Let the buyers decide.  If people think it is overpriced, they won't purchase it.  End of story. We don't need to hear your opinion on every other product launch complaining that someone might be making a profit.  These projects take a considerable amount of time and money, both in designing the product and sending it to production, not to mention any costs in damaged goods or other waste.  It seems whenever a new maker puts their work out to the public, if it's not priced around what you think the raw material costs should be, then it's trash or a waste of money.  It's not only insulting to the maker but also anyone who has purchased or is considering purchasing their work. 

Hey chronicsky I want the kind of magnet that snaps together when I put the two pieces close. I gathered by your gif that this is what happens. I am happy with this choice of magnet but if for some reason they push apart when I put them close together I will not be happy.

Hello,
They will pull each other closer and snap to make a full coin, i have tested each and every coin and it does that.

You can even try different finish right halves - left halves to have half-half  plating coins :D

Well he is just pissed that how people can make something when he can't do anything. I wonder who chose him for Escrow in NVO , i would never trust such a person who enjoys such a behaviour.

And if things were measured on raw material alone, he himself says - he is a pile of flesh and bones

I don't see the material for the magnet listed, thus correct. The maker, not know and intentionally not willing to list this information is a very bad sign.

I don't need to hear you complaining about my opinion on every other product launch either, yet here we are. Don't even get me started on this "we" supporting fraud, i.e. criminals et. al. ::)

I have asked for a manufacturing quote, which included everything for a smaller mintage of silver coins at least once. Thus, statements like these are absolute bullshit (unless the coin has some extremely valuable/innovative features).

I have absolutely no problem with either one.

Making a coin is trivial, especially garbage.

Are you, by any chance, trying to defame my name? https://archive.fo/RZ979#selection-4959.85-4959.190

Please do not feed the troll everyone.
We all know whay kind they are.
Let them blabber
I will let anyone who is interested to know other then the buyer any extra detail of the product
Thank you

Posting factual information equals to trolling now? ::)
Fact 1: Material cost of these items is garbage level. The magnet used is likely to be the cheapest of its kind, thus making the total material cost sub $10 per set.
Fact 2: You've spent months account farming and shitposting on Bitcointalk (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2002395.msg19956185#msg19956185) and you're directly responsible for any damage caused by the accounts that you've sold.
Fact 3: You are uneducated to the point that you don't even know the type of magnet that was used in this.

the rise in btc price means you need to pay less btc for this :D
BUMP

great :D

Thank you

These coins look really nice chronicsky and I can appreciate that they are different than most other coins. However, I don't really see the point as I would never open the airtight capsule just to "play" with them. That would decrease their value and even though I don't collect to sell, I wouldn't want their value to demise. The fact that these are also quite expensive makes it even worse. If they were around the price of a Ravenbit or even a Bitcoin Penny, I would love to have a few and play around with them, but $100 a piece for a brass coin (I assume it's brass as you didn't specify the material anywhere) is just too much for me, so I'll have to pass.

Good luck with sales!

thanks a lot mitchell!
but the coins are not in an airtight, one couldn't be made given their thickness. They are instead in a wooden box with velvet paper inside so they do not get a scratch.

And i understand! Thank you

these coins are cool as a cucumber - they look awesome and the case is well made. Plus my kids are fascinated by them, so they have to sit on the top shelf with my kialara golds..

That is just too bad. I hope people store them properly then.

I bet your shelf looks amazing with the amount of Kialara's that you own, lol.

Thanks man! Glad you like it :D

---

The box is made such that they do not get scratches. It wasn't possible to make custom airtights for that size either.
