I don't think Mike can help with this.
Series 1 was inkjet printer. So, he could have simply put in a new cartridge.
Of the bars I have seen, this picture looks like a very dark print; however, I have seen coins with such a dark print. It is not out of the ordinary.
Also, the only way to know with better certainty is to have the person that own the only other active bar that was funded the same day. That bar is: 18FAZLxJ
I am talking to someone now with S1 bars to post pictures, but already know they are funded earlier than the one in this auction/sale.
Basically, the darker print doesn't make it unique. Just like lighter print doesn't make the others unique. It's simply that it is a 100 BTC bar.
I dunno man...look at these bars and see if they are even close at all... (Not my bars, but know a guy with a few). http://imgur.com/a/GbJpMInteresting, the font used is a separated pixel font that shows the vertical pixel lines definitively separated while the bold font does not.

Nice, these look like they are from the Genesis coins S2?

Thanks for the kind words everyone!
The limit was an idea we had to give a fairer distribution for the first couple days, we will be lifting it sometime this week.

2. destroyed the original public/private key labels
Damn, I would have been interested in buying these. Any chance you tested these private keys before you destroyed them? I don't know if anyone has ever peeled any of the Ravenbit assembled coins and actually proved the private keys match the public. We did test a small sample of the private keys and they were good, matching up to the provided first-bits and address listings from Ravenbit. The addresses were seemingly generated and applied accurately. ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Unfortunately they were destroyed and disposed of as discussed for this project since we saw no value in keeping them around. They were all unfunded coins so I believe no CLAMS or anything else could have been retrieved. May I ask what the value would be for the peeled key sets?

I'm sorry if this sounds dumb but what do you mean by "Pod-ify"?
Not a dumb question at all, I don't believe it was mentioned anywhere with a full explanation. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) For our first series Ravenbit coins were "Podified"/"Pod-ify" where we: 1. removed the original hologram from the coin 2. destroyed the original public/private key labels 3. finally replaced the public/private key labels with our own generated keys and replaced the hologram with our own "sticker" As MJ mentioned, we "Pod-ify" the coin when we assemble it ourselves using our branding and securely generated keys. The #1 Satoshi coin was DIY and didn't require the original hologram removed, although we believe destroying an already created coin is not required for "Podification".

I'm a bit confused with the numbering, the set # and the coin #'s are different?
The # printed with the public key is the coin# not set#? If so I would like set #22.
No problem and yes, the numbering is a little different than usual since set #1 contains coin #2, #35, & #68. Coin #1 is standalone and is not included in one of the 3-Coin sets. The table that MJ has provided shows the numbering for the 3 sets of 33 coins which make up the last 99/100 of the Ravenbit Podified Series. If you have any further questions please feel free to ask away! ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

.02 Also, I believe the image here is the first of the back of this coin without the sticker. It may have a place in a later book edition.
Interesting, I picked up one of the coins without the sticker secondhand and can't remember seeing the back of one of the funded versions. What hologram was used on these? EDIT: The picture elianite posted yesterday didn't load for me but I now see there was no hologram, it looks like a printed on white sticker.

i also have a pile of magic cards that im selling. my guess is 1000 to 2000 cards. i havent gone and searched the value of all of them mostly the ones that stand out and all are early decks like tempest portal, weatherlight, ice age, stronghold, visions, Arabian knights, alliances, and a couple more. if you are interested ill get a more accurate count and of what sets. i wouldn't count on anything too big in it. i sold the bazaar of Baghdad witch was the big one on eBay. as well as a mox diamond that i found. ive only have been able to go through the lands and started on items. creatures and others i haven't searched yet. but as i said just let me know if your intrested.
I can vouch for radiocoin's cards, I've seen the collection in person. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Thanks for the recommendations! I can definitely CAD up something extremely similar to the Etsy characters if you'd like and get it printed in the right colors. Send me a PM for further details. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif)

Updated with pictures and numbers etc... Looks like I forgot to grab the tenth...
Very nice collection & photos, was the distribution of the Silver/Brass skewed more towards MS 67 or was it possibly due to earlier grading?
