Title: [PREANN] DOGE-Ball Gold Doge Coin
Post by: CryptoImperator on December 08, 2021, 12:56:42 AM
Hello fellow collectors!

A couple of months ago two threads were created by dolphriends, which ended up in the interest of many members of seeing the creation of a V2 Gold Dogecoin.

Those threads can be found here:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5357525.0
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5355997.0

Support was massive, with more than 25 reservations for the coin.


So I open this thread with the aim of keeping everyone updated as well as receiving feedback on the design and specs, bear in mind it will be a slow project due to the peculiarities of working with gold, (Safety, storage, shipping...)

Design draft:

https://i.imgur.com/OZlRa3F.jpg

Proposed Specs:

- Size: 41mm
- Weight: 1.5 Troy Oz of .999 Gold
- Funding: 1000 Dogecoins

As a peculiarity, I am considering using the original Series 1 CI Hologram, featured in all the Dogecoins produced.

At the moment I can not provide a timeframe, hence why I am not taking firm orders/preorders atm, I will try to provide details as soon as possible. But bear in mind that price will probably be in excess of 4k$

Fantastic work! Excited to see another gold Doge come to fruition. I’ve already expressed it, but will again express that I’m in.

I will be buying one coin, I think gold crypto coins cant be passed up.

Even though this coin may be expensive it is worth it imo.

I like the fact this coin will have the old school hologram from the past.

I’m interested. Would be nice to see the balls with the “o” “g” & “e” like in the sketch.
It sure would fill up the other side of the coin nicely.

Looking forward to more details.

The original drawing by Will Street is available for 10 eth if anyone is interested.

Figured the other side would be mainly taken up by the hologram.  Is it possible the basketball design could be switched to that of a dodgeball design- above the 1000 doge?

I think what he meant was the right side of the front of the coin.  Actually that wouldn't be a basketball but, rather a doge icon

Yes this is what I meant. Now is a good time to discuss it before the cast is made. Is there anyway the coin can look like it does (as closely as possible) as the Will sketch @CryptoImperator?

What I was trying to convey is that the ball image right above 1000 doge looks like a basketball per the markings.

This is a sketch, so some changes will be made, and the final design will be posted here before sending it to the mint.

Ball markings that resemble a basketball will be removed ;)

Post by: CryptoImperator on February 02, 2022, 09:17:36 PM
Final Design is in!

I am considering doing something very different with the release of this coin, with a limited number of coins minted each year until we reach the total supply number. Still tweaking the idea, will hopefully share it here very soon!

Thanks for your patience!

Dies are almost ready, on their way to hardening!

Due to the nature of the coin, and seeing that there are a lot of interested members, I am considering doing a yearly allocation of the coin.

I mean, for example, this year only 12 coins will be minted, and next year another 12 until the minting cap is reached (I was thinking around 25-30 MAX)

I am now thinking on a way to allocate each slot, with raffles, games, auctions... so it is both fun and fair for all parties involved, please let me know your thoughts if we got to make it this way ;)

The die came out nice, looking forward to the final test coin

And

12 coin a year for 2 consecutive years sound good. Doge is still hyped up due to Elon, might be fun to see where it goes in couple years

I love limited mintage but makes it very hard to get a return on your investment when only making 12. I would do 50 as the load value is still cheap and many people would be interested

I'm sure CI is thinking more about the community and the value for them from a small mintage  than return on investment for himself in this case.

I fully understand, for any collector of CI coins this is certainly a museum piece. 


Title: Re: [PREANN] DOGE-Ball Gold Doge Coin
Post by: CryptoImperator on March 23, 2022, 02:24:56 PM
Unless there is a last time unexpected change, there will be 24 coins.

The way to acquire them will be a bit different this time, 24 coin spots, will be assigned in various ways (12 this year 2022, and 12 next year 2023) via Auctions, Raffles, games... to be decided. I think it will be fun for the community and will give the opportunity to everyone to get one.

So I will not be accepting any reservations for the coin.


More details to follow once I have a silver test coin made.

Really looking forward to this coin, a great amount of time and artists skills were involved to bring this project to the forum, the end result will be a museum worthy piece from cryptomperator made of fine gold. WOW!!   :) :) :)

Any chance you release a non-fundable silver version of this coin with a larger quantity than the gold ones? Or even a slightly modified one that's 100 DOGE instead of 1,000, but made out of silver?

I will step in and say that would take away from the very limited mintage of this artwork and I would not agree to it.

Sorry for the wait, the first gold coin has been minted  8) 8)

Still preparing the distribution phase, as mentioned before, not many of these will be made.

Hope you like it :D

Resurrecting this thread, as the project was in stand-by for a couple years.

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2024/04/30/rTJpI.jpeg

1.5 Troy Oz of .999 Fine Gold, design based on a draft by Will Street. Loaded with 1000 $Doge

Original Series 1 2014 Crypto Imperator "To the moon" Hologram

First coin was minted in 2022 being the only CI coin released that year...


Adjusting numbers a bit for a 2024 edition, probably 20 coins. Price of gold has gone quite up...  1740$/Ounce vs 2200$ ATM

Will be contacting everyone who was interested back in the day, if you would like one, don't hesitate to email/pm me.

Cool coin design.  I couldn't view it so I thought I'd post this here.  Folks love their gold coins and there seems to be a shortage of them in the market lately so I wish you luck on your sales.  Dogecoin seems like one of the coins that has a lot of support and holders but not much actual usage.  With Elon Musk making X a financial services company, there's a good chance we may see some movement in Doge in the coming years.  If Elon is successful, I'm sure he'd like to see Doge become the go to currency for internet shenanigans and I think there's a big future there.

Would like to see a floating NFT where both sides of the coin can be seen. :) :) :).  I believe that is the only crypto 1/1 gold coin ever minted by certainly one of the greatest coin makers of our time.
