In loving memory of Zepher.

Free to everyone.

The idea was by minerjones. (We merely minted the coins.)

These coins are available at no charge (not including shipping) to the first 100 80 forum members who request them. (EDIT: We reduced the number so that Zepher's family members may receive extra coins.) Each of those forum members will receive 10 of these coins to share with friends, strangers, whomever. Zepher and his contributions to the bitcoin community will be remembered thru all of you.

EDIT: All 1,000 ZEPHER coins have been RESERVED. Thank you.

Regards,
Chris

(NOTE: We will try to organize group shipments for our international friends to reduce any shipping costs.)


UPDATE: The following is a list of everyone who will receive free ZEPHER coins. Please let me know if you'd like your name added.

Well done, I’ll take some too.

Wow, fantastic gesture!

I'll have some please, will make sure they get spread around in Zepher's memory.

Nice job boys, excellent way to remember Zepher.  Include me if possible, thanks!

I only need one , thanks Chris.  Really miss Zepher

Amazing way to be honored. Really touching. I'd love one of these.

Amazing gesture, i’ll take some..

UPDATE: Everyone who purchased some of our 2019 SILVER coins will receive 10 free ZEPH coins with their order, automatically. Likewise, everyone who will purchase from our main line of copper 2019 Bitcoin Penny™ Commemorative Coins and/or Bitcoin Penny™ Mini Physicals (which will be ANNed and released on 3/30) will receive 10 free ZEPH coins with their order, automatically. Everyone else must request ZEPH coins as a separate order via posting here or thru PM.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

Thank you.

Regards,
Chris

If there are spare ones you can send them together with the silver ones
Though give the people that really knew him first chance, cause i never interact with Zepher myself
Only get to know about his A+++ reputation cause of the unpleasant event :(
But if you have Some... it Will be in good hands with me

Edit: just saw your post .....

I'll take an order.

I'll take some please, thank you BP

I’d like one please. Thank you for comemerating a great person. Nice work

Well done..
I know I got to answer a message, haven't forgotten. Soon.

It is a great way to memorate him, I'm not very aware of the subject but it's always sad to lose a fellow from our crypto community.
I will get one coin or a few if there are for sale.
If they are still free and sent to give away for free that also sounds great, I tried giving away satoris in the past, If I get pm'ed an address I can pay my shipping fees.

Amazing work guys !! Thank you for this.
Please include me in a EU shipment.

Yes please.

To MinerJones. I buy something else to ship with them.

Thank you, everyone. It's been a busy last few days, and we're still preparing for Saturday's big copper release, so please forgive me if it takes a little time to reply to all the PMs and requests. We'll get you sorted out. I promise. ;)

In the meantime, I've had one kind member PM to say that he is happy to act as an EU distributor for these special ZEPHER memorial coins. Once I confirm and work out the details, then I'll post that info here. (I'll also post it in PMs.)

Thanks again, everyone.

Regards,
Chris

Very nice...BP.

Thank you for creating this Penny in memory of Zeph.

Would like a few, if still available.  

Very nice gesture !

A very kind gesture! As I am newer here and didn't have any friendship with Zepher I don't want any free coins, will save that for his true friends.

Just noting a great community of people we have here. :)

BP & MJ, very well done. I would be honored to have a pack or two with my other order, assuming it's ok.... ;)

Totally agree, I’ve only been present here for a few weeks and there is a wonderful sense of community. Respect to all

The best people on the Internet are here in the Collectibles section of bitcointalk.org

Sorry for you loss.

Great job @bitcoinpenny and @minerjones! :)

What a great gesture towards zepher and the crypto community. Thanks for this @bitcoinpenny and @minerjones. I’d love some if you still have any

Thank you BP. If possible, I'd like one.

Saving these for his true friends is a kind gesture too. I think that Zepher would respect that, and he'd want you to have some free coins too. :)

Besides, these coins were meant to be given away, by Zepher's friends, to people who may (or may not) have never known him. So giving a few coins to you is serving the original purpose. Celebrate bitcoin in Zepher's memory, and all will be right.

I'm happy to reserve some coins for you, if you'd like. Just say the word.

Regards,
Chris

I want one please. Thanks for doing this


RIP Zepher

Thank you BitcoinPenny and Minerjones for the extremely thoughtful gesture.  Zepher will be immortalized in the form of his own coin.  Amazing, really.  I'd love a few for keepsakes. 

Pick me please :)

Thank you.

RIP Zepher

I 'll take some, please...  ;)
Please include me (my coins portion) in the EU shipment.

thanks a lot!!!

May I put my name in for this?  I think it's a fantastic idea and shows the strength of this community--even if the love is confined to the collectibles section.  :)

Thanks.

I'll grab a set of these for EU shipment pl0x

Still plenty to go around.

Me

Wonderful idea, please put me down to participate!

Props to you BP. Lovely gesture. Please put me down on the list. Thank you

Put me down near the end of the list. I never met/knew Zepher so I'd hate to take the place of a friend.

If I do get my hands on one I'll spread the love through the prairies.

Amazing way to honour the memory.

Hello Chris,

I'd love to own one if possible.

Thank you for producing them  :)

thanks for this, would also like a coin please.

Would love to display this is my collection. I didn't know Zepher but no bitcoiner should go so early  :'(

Thank you for putting this together.

I would love some of these.  Thank you. 

I will take a set if still available :)

Amazingly cool idea MJ and BP

I'd like some too if still available.

Nice idea, I will take some if still available. Thanks !

I'd love a Zepher coin! I'll contact you on Slack regarding the new silver coins.

This is such a kind move. Thanks for this!
I would love to get some of those coins for my friends and me. Would be glad to be added to the list.  :)

RIP Zepher <3

What a great thing to do for Zepher. He will be happy knowing that a lot of people is thinking about him.

I would love to have one! Please include me if possible.

This is wonderful. BP and MJ, great job here, fantastic thing to do. Great coin, and especially a great distribution method.

I would love to be on the list also

I would love to be on the list

Really nice

I will take some too

I totally forgot to thank the both of you for doing this. Z would've loved them!

Sign me up please. Thanks.

Amazing work Chris, you are always such a genuine person that just wants to spread the joy, much love.

Minerjones, you are an amazing human who many should aspire to be like, thank you so much for coming up with this idea.

Having these coins to look at from time to time (I'll probably frame a couple and put on my desk) will mean so much to me as I'm sure it will for others too. This community is without a doubt the best one I've ever come across so thank you all for being who you are!

Am I too late? I would like one if you are willing to include me.
This is an amazing initiative, Chris, Thank you!

This is a wonderful gesture of you BitcoinPenny & MinerJones, that's what I like about this subsection. The kindness with all the people and global acceptance.

Will pridely distribute some in Middle East :)

Reservation list has been updated.

Chris

Hello Chris,

Can I take this one?
I want to remain the goodness of Zepher presence in my mind by using this memorable stuff.


Edited:
Thank you so much.

Thank you for doing this bitcoinepnny and minerjones.

I would love one.

The last reservation belongs to you, sheenshane. :)

We are officially SOLD OUT of these special ZEPHER memorial coins.

Regarding shipping...

(A) If you purchased any of our 2019 SILVER commemorative coins and/or our new (copper) 2019 Bitcoin Penny™ Commemorative Coins or Bitcoin Penny™ Mini Physical Bitcoins (to be released on 3/30), then your free ZEPHER coins will ship with those orders, directly from us at The Bitcoin Penny Company.

(B) If you did not purchase any of the above coins, then your free ZEPHER coins will ship from minerjones at the Mantis Prime warehouse. For our international friends, TBPCo and Mantis Prime are working together to arrange group shipping to most countries. If you are interested in helping to arrange a group shipment for your home country/region, then please contact me or minerjones.

Thank you again for helping to celebrate ZEPHER's legacy within the bitcoin community.

Regards,
Chris

Thank you Chris for your efforts.

If there's no one to ship towards here in the Philippines, I would be the one who could redistribute when it arrives here. I had transactions with minerjones before, so it won't be a problem to have a trade again.

I am just posting here so people would also know if they are in the same region/country.

What a great gesture Chris, thank you for doing this.

UPDATE: This is a quick update to say that we're still taking and preparing orders for our current SILVER and Copper Collection releases. In a few days, when we have shipped all those orders, then we will begin arranging for shipments of the free ZEPHER memorial coins. If you have a reservation for the free ZEPHER memorial coins, then please be patient. We will contact you for shipping payment and delivery address very soon. In the meantime, thank you for helping to keep Zepher's wonderful memory alive in the bitcoin community. :)

Regards,
Chris

I would like to have some , maybe this way we get closer.

Received mine...thanks! ;)

I'm sorry, CoolWave. We have no more ZEPHER memorial coins. Perhaps another forum member has one to share?

Regards,
Chris

~snipe~ or snip

He is getting a coin shipped to him.


:D cheers to another zepher coin making it out in the wild.

Just waiting for him to send me a full shipping info

Got my coins today, and they're beautiful--thank you so much!! 

RIP Zeph.  Didn't know you except by reputation, but you were clearly well-loved here.  These are amazing coins that really pay homage to him in a classy and elegant way.  Props, guys.

Zepher was such a class act.  At Coinfest UK 2018 Zephy organized, and mostly funded, renting the bar/lounge on the 23rd floor of the Hilton Hotel for a fabulous party of 13 of us collectors who had traded for years but mostly never met.  About a month after we got home we all received these custom notes he had produced with Polymerbit to commemorate the evening, again at his cost.

The world suffered a great loss when he left us.

Side note, Zepher and I were chased by hotel security twice that night but they never caught us.

You nailed it LC.
 Bryan was a special guy for so many reasons and to so many of us.

The world is a poorer place without him :(

Mine showed up in the mail today. I sort of want the coins either rolled, in capsules or graded, because simply sitting in a plastic bag doesn't seem to actually represent the spirit of the coins. I'm certainly not complaining, because the quality of the coin, the care during shipping and the initiative in general are all very thoroughly thought out. Maybe I can talk Chris into making some custom sleeves for these or something; at least as an option for members that want to do something a little extra for their coins, could even donate the proceeds to his family. Thanks for getting these out Chris and MJ!

Although I did not know him he's helped me understand what a tight knit group you guys are.
Killyou is sending me one. (Thank you!)
It saddens me to see someone so young go. It delights me to see the unity he's created even in death.

No problem, I wonder if you had one then would you have shipped it to India ? Zepher is in a better place right now . May his soul rest in peace .

If there is still possibility to get these coins or any of member like to share there coins, I would like to see my name in list too. :)

Thanks !!

No if you read through the thread the coins have all been sent out. The idea is people will distribute them randomly as they go about life, so maybe one day you will come across one. Either way this isn't really about the coins it's about the memory Zepher, who the more I read about was a hell of a guy.


@BitcoinPenny You may want to remove the (free) from the title or put something else in place so people don't continue to show up asking for the coins. Can't wait to see these, I've already got a semi-local meetup I'm going to bring some to to hand out. Best excuse for a first time trip.

@Steamtyme - Hi buddy :) I don't understand why people overreact without understanding the facts and intention.

I messaged after reading the thread and thats why i wrote "any of member like to share there coins", because i read that every member received 10 coins and may be possible someone can spread the memory but without asking no one will know that who is interested or not.

I know its not about the free coins because i did read the name of the BOARD also and its about collectibles and i also wanted to have one coin in memory of the awesome contributor Zepher. But i am sorry if it offends to ask a memory.

Thanks !!

Yes, several of our customers live in India.



Great suggestion, Steamtyme. Thanks. :)

Regards,
Chris

(RIP, Zepher.)

Well that is nice , anyways is there any Junior Zepher ? Like did he have any son/daughter ?

Thank you for the ZEPHER Coins. They look nice and have a good story to tell.

My office display is complete...it’s quite humbling and puts into perspective what really matters...

Well said, dumbchump. And with that, I'll lock this thread.

RIP, Zepher.
