Wow, these look nice. And I like that they're in 'Quarter' denominations, as opposed to the higher BTC0.5 and BTC1.0 I see around.
Thank you Korbman

Could you post a high resolution picture of the coin?
Yes, I will do so when I get home tonight.

I had planned on releasing custom made loaded coins to follow up the previous loaded coins I had. Given the recent happenings and the fact that I do this for fun and not business I'm liquidating what I have as DIY coins instead of loaded coins. Info on previous coins and the current diy pieces at http://serpco.inSome images/info about the DIY coins below: Blank Coins - 35mm diameter - Zinc Alloy - Antique finish - Labeled 2014 - Labeled QUARTER BITCOIN Hologram Labels - 32mm dameter - 13mm x 2mm transparent window - Honeycomb release for tamper evidence - Security edge slits for tamper evidence - 16 labels per sheet Example Coin with Air-tite case Pricing.010 btc / sheet of 16 labels .005 btc / blank coin .001 btc / air-tite w/ rubber ring (max = # coins ordered)Shipping.01 US48 .04 Worldwide Software - not required Here is some scripts to help create addresses and labels to go under the holograms with instructions on how to use them in Ubuntu. https://github.com/jondale/serpcoinThese scripts are not required. You can create your own addresses and make your own labels to go under the hologram just fine. I am now sold out of all coins. I still have sheets of holograms available if you want them.

I really like this but I'm not the type to put art up on a wall.
Would it be insulting if I asked about having this design on a t-shirt?

This is probably a reproduction but imagine the story this would make if it wasn't. I remember having a reproduction when I was a kid.

Serp, any plans to make another series?
Yes, I'm late on the next batch due to some other projects going on. I'll get some out soon though.

v2 39 is one.. i think a quite a few of v2 that are printed with 5 character firstbits may be also..
blockchain.info had a problem with firstbits for several weeks, think it started mid to late july but I'm not positive..
You are right. I just ran them through and checked them via script. All of v0.1 and v1 are labeled with the correct first bits. 44 out of 48 coins in v2 are labeled 1 character too short. For version 2, coins #20, #29, #33, and #41 are the only ones labeled with the full first bits. Sorry about that all and thanks for bringing it more to my attention. I have updated http://serpco.in/bits.txt to reflect this.

Hey everyone. The coin in question here is labeled 16J2e and it's full address is 16J2e5LGkMTAjn7JZt4o78od4KKS9ZXf4P. During the creation process I used blockchain.info's api to get the first bits. Apparently there was a timing or indexing issue there because the bits returned ended up changing. Lesson learned, I'll not rely on that method in the future. I have not found any other coin that is mislabeled but I will be running a script to verify them all here shortly. For reference on the coins already produced the labeled address and the full bitcoin address can be verified below: http://serpco.in/bits.txt

Have you posted order dates for when you ordered the chips? Perhaps my reading comprehension is lacking here but I am unable to find it. Thanks.

My 10 coins arrived today. They look great, thanks. Awesome steelboy. Hope you enjoy them.

I got my coins in, thanks! I have to say, as a long time coin collector who's been into BTC and LTC for the past year or so, I am very impressed with all the physical coins that you and others are producing. I've got a stellar collection building up.
Glad you like them worldtreasurefinders.

Just an update that I'm now sold out of these.

Hey steelboy, I answered you in PM but just wanted to say here in the thread that I always check both this post and pm's before filling an order. I just had to run a few errands for a little while this morning so took me a bit to answer. Miffman got in last night before I went to bed even

Time for another round of coins. These are verify similar to the last set but with a few small improvements. For common questions see posts from previous versions of coins: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=240768.0https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=253322.0Specs: - There are 48 total coins. - Each coin is loaded with 0.05 BTC (50 mBTC). - The private key is encoded as a QR code under the hologram scratch off label. - Labeled sc v2 on the left side. - Labeled with #/48 on the right side. Price: 0.08 btc per coin Shipping within US: 0.04 first class or 0.055 priority. Shipping outside US: 0.1 first class or 0.24 priority. Notes: As with all previous orders, I will ship the coins out the next day and send you a tracking number the day I ship. First class is cheap but tracking is often unreliable even in the US. Tracking by any method for international orders is almost useless. If you want it shipped some other way then just let me know and I'll investigate it. Maximum Order: 10 coins per order for the first 2 days. No limit starting Tuesday (7/30/2013). Sorry the date in the image is from last night as I finished them then but didn't get the post up till today. If you need some more verification just let me know.

Im itching to buy more, any new updates?
Hey btceic, I'm hoping to have more soon. I've had to work on other projects recently but I plan to have some more by next week sometime.

I received my coins as well. They are in great shape.
Just as an FYI, the difference between a "g" and "q" is hard to tell as the lower portion is cut off. Something to keep in mind for the next batch run might be to exclude all "j", "g", "q", "p", "y", etc. characters. Also might want to avoid h and b, because the cutoff makes it hard to tell which is which.
Even with this handicap I was still able to identify and confirm all of the addresses had been loaded, though.
Thanks Raize and thanks for the feedback. I'll be sure and address these things in the next set.

What other coins do you have planned?
Hey OgNasty, I will likely have another set in a few weeks but I have not decided what the denomination will be yet. It will be somewhere between 10 and 100 millibitcoin.

Excuse that unpleasant hacker that decided to post negative comments about your coins using my account...I think all physical coins are cool as shit, and yours are no exception. this prick really got around that day pissing on all kinds of threads using my account as his puppet. Discovered it two days later, after a bunch of people decided they didn't like me anymore because my avatar brazenly insulted them, understandable, but it sucks that some people truly believed that was me.
Not a problem hennessyhemp. Sorry you had issues with your account.
