First well done on getting 9!
I own number 10, i used to own Unity and the Black Swan... I was on this forum a lot many years ago - lost the email now - I also have some other smaller coin that he sent me thats somewhere in my house here.
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2223623.0PM me - I was sent #10 as an apology believe it or not in 2016 out of the blue, if i get into my previous account here i have a load of interesting PMs with WoodCollector.
I live in Asia and #10 named, 'Lagniappe' is in my deposit safe in UK (where previous were shipped from when i sold them) - its a 100 BTC on the front and purple wood (not sure name) - very shiny. Not sure but i also remember it being bigger than the other 2.
I will be in UK on 19/2 so gladly send you some photos soon.
Wow - to find this thread as well, i just popped in to see if he was still around! Has smoothie seen this thread
??
Very exciting. I have sent you a PM but I would like to keep most of this in the public. I am of course very skeptical and have been ready for somebody to approach me with a fake Coin 10 that they have crafted themselves/had made locally by a wood worker. I won't go into the certain things that I would be looking for on the coin but WoodCollector has a few "tells" when it comes to his coins that someone would only know about if they were holding multiples of them. No better person to be able to tell if it is actually his work or not than someone who has nine of them
First lets start with a definition from wikipedia.
"A lagniappe (/ˈlænjæp/ LAN-yap, /lænˈjæp/ lan-YAP) is "a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase" (such as a 13th doughnut on purchase of a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."[2]"Interesting name for the coin.. WoodCollector definitely used unique/meaningful names for each of his coins. He did say he was going to gift Coin 10 to a forum member of his choosing, 'lagniappe' seems to fit within this scope.
The key to decoding the first part of that puzzle is coin #10 which after much though is being given to someone whom i already chose from this forum. In order to decode each individual wooden coin you will have to have #10 in its physical presence and in order to solve the entire first clue you will need to posses and have all 10 coins in the same physical location.
Now I pose a couple challenges to verify you are actually ukcrypto/litecoinaddict
1. Can you provide a picture on top of this blanket with the most recent block number and last 6 digits of the hash?
2. Can you sign a message from this bitcoin address 125gVqUrFqoa3yo1cBxWuiZZa9UNeFV6JH?
3. In private messages in 2017 you signed one of your replies with "Regards, xxxxxx" assuming your name in place of the x's what would this have been? (Answerable in PM of course) aswell you were working somewhere quite unique at the time of sending Unity/Black Swan to me.
I will add a few questions to this as time goes on, I am reviewing the conversations "we?" had back in 2017 to see if there are other defining questions I can ask that only you would be able to tell/show answers to.
I very much await February 19th and the pictures you can provide! Also the smaller coins that WoodCollector crafted would be pretty neat to see aswell.. not once has anyone mentioned ever having seen one in public or having purchased one.
You of course can provide answers to any of the questions I have posed here or simply tell me to F off
it's up to you to further advance this tale if you'd like and I'm happy you found this thread.
