Hi all,

I dont post much these days, but was involved in co-writing the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins along with elianite.  I did also meet a bunch of you at this year's Miami BTC 2022 convention.

I noticed there was a major art exhibition in the middle of the BTC 2022 hall, and thought why couldnt we do something similar with our Physicals?   Could we not get maximum exposure to our hobby and expose these to the masses, by having a museum set up?

I thought we could get sponsors to pay for insurance, rental of jewelry cases, guard, central floor space and other expenses.  We then could display and sell our insured coins for sale.  It would get exposure to tons of people while offering a way to sell our coins at a premium, for those looking to sell.  We could write up placards of each maker.  

Perhaps ask to do a major panel with coin makers, complete with slideshow, discussing the history.

At the volunteer table, we could have coin makers featured during the days.  Maybe Bobby Lee could do a Book signing?  There's lots of ideas that can be discussed.

I for one would offer up my collection for this purpose, volunteer as a docent and do writeups.  Any thoughts?  Any interest?

Think of this as Encyclopedia 2.0, bringing coins to the masses.

[Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins]

Up for auction is the #27 set of signatures and holos for the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins.  

I do not plan to do this project again, so this will likely be a one time opportunity.  These labels may be used for previous softcovers, current hardcovers, or kept for future editions of the Encyclopedia.  A book purchase is not required, nor is a book included.

The back of the COA will have a numbered list that will match to a number on the back of each signature/holo, so someone will know who is who.  A black 10 3/8" x 4 5/8" genuine leather album is provided.

Out of the 50 sets made, 20 were set aside for the hardcover Autograph Edition, 13 were given free to certain coin makers who signed early in the project, and 10 more sets have been sold.

STARTING BID: 0.25 BTC
MINIMUM BID INCREMENT: 0.01BTC
END TIME: TUESDAY, MARCH 14, 2017, 4:30 PM EST

NO SNIPING: Any bid made in last 15 minutes will extend the auction 15 minutes beyond end time until no new bids are made.

* Bitcoin Penny unique doodle
* defcoins' unnumbered black poker chip
* 25 coin maker holos (The loose sets will not have the bhcoins holo)
* my signed numbered COA with hologram.  

Signature labels are 1" x 3".  Most holos are affixed to 1/2" x 3/8" smaller labels, though some are loose.   Both labels are acid-free, archival paper on foil-backing.    Please note that these labels will add thickness to the pages, so be aware that pages will not lie as flat.

Pricing will be 0.30 BTC per loose set (book not included), with only 10 sets for sale, and another 4 sets (with serial numbers #1-4) may be offered at a later date by auction.  I do not plan to do this project again, so this will likely be a one time opportunity.  These labels may be used for previous softcovers, current hardcovers, or kept for future editions of the Encyclopedia.  A book purchase is not required.

Serial numbered COA's available are SOLD OUT  The back of the COA will have a numbered list that will match to a number on the back of each signature/holo, so someone will know who is who.

[Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Crypto-Currencies]

Hopefully by now some of you are receiving your regular edition copy of the Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins and Crypto-Currencies

Along with Elias and Matthew, I helped write some parts of the book, took roughly half of the photographs and served as editor.  I am now assembling all the signature editions.

In a past life, I used to collect autographs from celebrities both in person and in the mail.    

I wanted to gauge interest on collecting autographs from the various coin makers in the Encyclopedia.  This would be open to anyone who purchased a regular or Signature Edition.  

I am proposing putting together a list of all the coin makers who are willing to sign some labels I provide.  I would mail them the official acid free labels we used to have Matthew (in UK) sign, then have those coin makers return the labels to me in the same envelope with a return label and postage already prepared inside.  All the packages of blank labels from me can be sent at the same time, so we dont have to wait for each person one at a time.  This could possibly be done within a couple of weeks I assume.

I then collect all the various signed labels, collate them into a set and mail out to interested buyers.  Each maker that participated could get a free set or donation as a thank you, depending on how many sets are left and their preference.  Proceeds of the sale of the autographs would cover my postage, supplies, possible import taxes, time, with a 5% portion made as a donation to a charity.  Pricing depends solely on how many coin makers & buyers sign up and what country they live in with regards to shipping from the US.

At the end, I mail out a set to each buyer / maker and they can put the labels on each maker's page in the Encyclopedia or on empty pages in the front.

I'm Auctioning my LuckyBit Silver Wallet #98/100

This coin is the one pictured in the upcoming Encyclopedia of Physical Bitcoins.

It was only made for sale in auctions for a total of 5 coins and another 5 being given away to some people buying the rose gold wallet.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1440960.0

- Material: Zinc alloy (silver plated)
- Thickness: 3 mm
- Number: 98/100

- Bidding increment: 0.01 BTC
- No sniping; auction will end 15 minutes after the deadline is passed and no new bids are submitted.
