Just for fun I'm putting this up. Let's see if I am right. 
UPDATED OP: $440 to be hit by end of April is my guess.Unbelievable. It's going to be $1000 by May or June. |

Hi, I also am having a problem with receiving the coins from a cash transaction through moneygram.
I went back in my browser history to the quote page, and if that worked correctly this is the information:
Quote ID is: b8c74966-1815-4fdb-acd0-235b21c8e0dc
Event ID is: 8f44a25b-d328-4fcd-975f-502e98b9da1e
I don't know if it's safe to post the moneygram reference #, so i won't unless you ask.
I've done several seamless transactions in this exact same way to this exact same address, and it's usually been pretty quick. so far it's been 9 hours and i haven't received either bitcoins or any emails from BitInstant.
I was able to go back to my browser history as well and find my Quote ID. Others may have the same luck as I did. d0d8ea70-dffb-44c1-bed6-b3c4596bebcf It says that my order is loading, and it has been for a while. I had no luck. My payments went through https://www.cashpayment.com/and they sent me a payment slip to print out and bring to deposit. That payment slip does not contain any quote ID on it. |

Really like those. If you want a numerical value on , perhaps a relatively small embossed number top right or left.
I like the design but yeah I think letters should be avoided when you can use numbers. What if you give the coin to someone who can't speak good english or who is an immigrant? They don't read so what good is all that? Put 1LTC and everyone will know exactly how much it is and not only that but later on you can put 1mLTC and continue making coins. If you put 1 Lite Coin well what about the mLite Coin? |

A simpler design based on your recommendations, I actually like this one the best so far:   Also, notice that because I'm not making this in a 3D modeling program, my coin probably will not look as nice as the coin you guys posted earlier as an example. After it's in its true form on a coin it will look similar... it won't actually be as colorful as this. The people making the coins will do the 3d stuff for me, I just need to give them some guidelines of a design to work off of. Get rid of the words "One Litecoin" because not everyone can read that. Just put 1 or 1 LTC. This saves space and simplifies because we are going to be used to seeing numbers and LTC, not "Litecoin" |
|

Man, it almost seems like I'm never going to come up with a design that everyone likes :\
To get these made will be thousands and thousands of dollars, so I need something most people will like so I can sell a few and don't waste a lot of money.
So you guys want something that looks.. for lack of better words.. more like a coin?
Ok, back to the drawing board...
Don't just focus on look, it's not just look. It's how it feels in the hand, how it sounds, all of that is a factor. You gotta get a coin which is just the right size. I'd sayit should be the size of a half dollar or a quarter to start. mLTC should be a bit smaller in size and lighter in weight. So when you start you should remember that if you want the flexibility to branch into mLTC you have to start with the heavier bigger coins and make those the most unique but then the smaller coins don't have to be as unique because no one pays much attention to those coins. You also want people to buy the biggest most expensive coins, so make those the blinged out unique looking and make the really simple basic coins for the majority. |

Just put a nicely engraved LITECOIN on top, and something nioce & clever in the bottom. Also on the round side you can see that the coins have ones and zeross  I agree although I think it should be on the back. I think on the front it should just be an L logo we are all familiar with. I think the different coins should have slightly different designs on the back so we know it's 1 LTC, 10 LTC, etc. I think when it gets to 100 LTC it might be better to go with a larger coin, similar to how silver dollars are larger. So the sizes should not be the same so they each have a unique feel in the hand, this way a blind person knows how much it is by the weight and feel. |
|
|
|
how about these ones? i found that pic on reddit..  See? Perfect. The best coins are really simple like that. That should be the design. |
|
|
|
You really want most if not all lettering closer to the edge, small, non-numerical and following the edge (sorry, the word to describe thus currently eludes me, but "rounded, not straight")
Also, concerning silver coins, that would be great and personally I'd pay 2-3$ more per 1oz if it was ltc, I'd buy a lot too, and I guess that price premium seems fair, so you could calculate your margin of that price. (I'll also strictly say at 4$ premium per oz, it becomes too much of a bad investment)
NFC chip in them would be so great too (obviously not the silver ones because of the smelting mess)
Thanks for the advice.  Are these any better? I feel like they're getting worse and worse lol.. and no ones hardly giving me any feed back, so that makes me think that they are all really horrible!   I like the originals best. I think these are horrible. These look like Anoncoins or something. |

 UPDATE: ^^^ Newest Design ^^^ I am excited to announce that I am finalizing the designs and talking with a reputable tamper proof hologram company to make a physical Litecoin!!! Security: I am using a very expensive high security tamper proof hologram to secure each private key. It will be made with a high DPI dot matrix printer with several security features that will make it nearly impossible to forge. On top of that, our hologram will be registered in a database with all the reputable high security tamper proof hologram companies that make these things, and they will refuse to make it for anyone but me. As an added security protection, there will be a window on the back of each coin that reveals the firstbits so you can look the address up on any block explorer to ensure it hasn't been redeemed. That way you can have peace of mind when buying and selling the coins that it is actually loaded with LTCs!! All private keys will be created with a freshly installed OS and transferred immediately to an offline computer. When each coin is made, the private key data will be destroyed. I will be the only one that ever comes into contact with the private keys, and you can be sure that they'll be destroyed effectively, leaving the only back up of said private key hidden under the tamper proof hologram. Coin Type:First batch will be nickel plated. 1 OZ silver rounds to follow shortly thereafter. Unfortunately all denominations will not be made at launch, as it is too costly for me. However, I plan to get at least every denomination shown above done over the coming months. Expected Release:Soonish What I need from you:Your opinion on the design and what denominations you would like to be able to buy. I'd like to thank Casascius for the inspiration to undertake this project! https://www.casascius.com/I like the design. I think you should sell mLTC too. I don't understand why mBTC isn't being sold. So how about 1, 10, 100 LTC coins. But also sell 1, 10, 100 mLTC. This way if LTC value goes up like BTC did you'll still be able to be in business selling mLTC. |

It seems like I am in the same situation as others here..
Purchased $60 of bitcoins, got the confirmation email from ZipZap but nothing from Bitinstant. Obviously blockchain says no coins have been transferred..
Checking the quote ID on bitinstant gives this as the latest status: 'MTGox Order Loading'
Please help, lol.
Quote ID: 87dbe6e2-6a47-4dbd-a913-c26c49aa3ebd
Acct #: 724357306
Can you take a screen shot or something to show us where and how you find this quote ID? I kept the tab open on my browser after I first put in my order on bitinstant. That's the only way to retrieve it I think. They should have emailed that information to us and/or sent it via sms. Who could be expected to leave their tab open or to even know what Quote ID or Order ID is until it's too late? |

If quote ID were this critical I wish we would have been told that up front. "Save this quote ID just in case your money is lost in transmission".

Hello, I purchased about $300 worth of bitcoins earlier today via Bitinstant. I received a successful payment email from ZipZap but no emails from Bitinstant and there's nothing coming to my address (I checked it on BlockChain.) The account # on the zipzap payment slip is: 330968587.
Please help!
We are in the same boat. I received no email from Bit Instant so I don't even have a quote ID to give. Seems that way! I've never had any problems with Bitinstant before  maybe I should look into alternatives! Prior to Bit Instant I was using localbitcoins and paying via Paypal 20% over the market rate. I just want Bit Instant to give me my coins that I paid for at whatever the price was at the time. |

I purchased $200 worth of bitcoins at 10:30 this morning and received a ZipZap confirmation at 10:45. The problem is that it is now 6:37pm and I still have not received a confirmation from Bitinstant or bitcoins (I checked blockchain).
I have emailed support and did not receive a response. What should I do?
My ZipZap account number is 842767311
Order or quote ID #? I never received an email from Bitinstant, so I don't have an order or a quote ID. I find this to be very odd, and very concerning. Your order # and / or quote ID number are shown when you confirm your request on BitInstant. I ordered the coins through blockchain and it took me to Zipzap. The blockchain screen shows the amount of money, entry for my name and dob, and my deposit into my wallet. I clicked through that and it sends me to another site where it asks for my phone zipcode and if my memory is correct a phone number, then it has me select a deposit location. All I did was go through the steps. The first time I remember it going through real smooth. The moment I deposited the cash at the spot I got a text message, and I go home and checked my email that first time and there were two emails, the email with the order number from Bit Instant and the confirmation that I paid from Zipzap. The last time though I sent the order through exactly the same way, but no email from Bit Instant so I have no way of knowing what the order number is because I never got the email, but I do have the email from Zipzap so apparently Zipzap took my money and lost it somewhere in the chain. |

Hello,
I now you have a lot on your plate Ursay, I just wanted to put myself on your radar.
I put in an order this morning at 8:15 west coast time and received my ZIPZAP confirmation and have yet to receive my bitcoins.
What info do you need from me other than the ZipZap account number 650 612 252.
thanks!
Quote # would be great thanks!  Pardon my ignorance but what is a quote number? I'm pretty young and dumb at this. Please go thru the documentation provided with your order and see if you can find a quote # or order ID #. Thanks! I'm using Zipzap too and I don't have a clue where one would find an order ID or quote #. I don't think I was given that. |

URSAY is my issue still being worked on? Please confirm.
I don't believe I've logged any issues for you. Care you help me with more info? I sent you a PM a while back. Anyway I deposited almost a week ago now and received an email which said Amount to Pay: $503.95 Account Number: 785119595 Your ZipZap payment has been successfully processed and the merchant has been notified to complete your order. Please keep this email for your records. I still have not received my Bitcoins but Zipzap has my money. |
