The 256 coin flips still written down, but I'm not sure how to import this into a modern wallet.
From a quick review:
Convert the binary to HEX (you can do this in your head).
Use Bitaddress.org on an offline Live Linux DVD, go to Wallet Details, enter the HEX string in the Private Key field.
This gets you the address and private key.

You can use the same offline Linux to sign an offline transaction as described here.

Thanks, Bitaddress looks familiar I think I used this when creating it.
Importing the address it creates just shows 0 transactions. So I guess it's possible I never used this address, but I think I did.
Is there anything else you would recommend I try?

A few years ago, I created an address using this method: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=944596.0

I now know, this isn't a good idea. But I sent some btc to this address, and now I'd like to claim it.

Brainwallet is mostly offline (the tools are still on Github)

Is B58Check the same as WIP?

Whatever I used to create the address was using 2015 technology, so keep that in mind.

Any ideas?
