There's actually one mint you've missed. I can't recall the name. It was an awesome looking coin, but I was never able to get my hands on one. I remember that you could disassemble the coin like a hollowed out penny.

Is it this?

I've seen them before on ebay, but thought it was more of a coin that could store a private key like a DIY, or anything for that matter, but it had a certain strange look to it.  Decisions...

That's it! I've been meaning to get one, but 100$ at the current BTC prices is a bit too much for now. I'll wait around first.

Nice man, pretty comprehensive list you got there! Only ones I can think of that you don't have listed (that can hold private keys) are WoodWallets formerly at woodwallets.io (but they retired), and Infinitum Bitcoins, which come out in 18 days and I'm pretty excited about! Unfortunately I can't help you acquire those because I only have 1 WoodWallet, and the latter aren't released yet (but you can reserve a slot).

I can think of a few physical Bitcoins that aren't wallet-type coins (can't hold private keys) that you don't have listed, but I'm not sure if you're looking for those.

Hijacking the thread a bit, but since this is about collecting physical wallets/coins... It was pretty sad that those WoodWallets guys went offline. I have one of those (it has a Vanity address, so it's not for sale, sorry OP Grin) and it looks and feels really good. It's a cheap and pretty wallet, that's pretty useful as a gift too... And I just love wood stuff. Is there any competition, or any other physical wallet/coin that's made out of wood? Any from the list of the OP, maybe? I wouldn't mind getting something similar to what I have from WoodWallets

Wow...this is way too crazy of a topic for me right now.....since the woodcollector sham...I have fallen in love with lasered wood products as bitcoin wallets.. I even bought a laser myself.... not to derail my own paper wallet startup.. I have been thinking of a lasered wood wallet design that looks like a bearer bar made from rosewood with polymer inlay..  also a polymer clay bitcoin poker chip.... both with NFC tags embedded like the orange card from a few posts ago.....and would be able to log into any greenaddress wallet...or just store a private key.....I have a rosewood bar prototypes already....as far as the woodwallets...they can be lasered in less then 10 minutes...

Sounds really cool.  I bet people would love something like a bearer bar made of wood.  Very unique and different, especially if you offered different kinds of exotic woods for the crazy collectors like myself.  Just make sure you mention its not hand carved   Roll Eyes

Hit up monkeynuts.  I think he bought a few off ebay.

Seems like this thread is becoming more of a Public Service for others out there looking for different coins to feed their habit.  lol.  Happy to help in any way I can.

And for the crazy collector ..How about my Bitcoin fossil Wallet....I can stick a NFC tag on the bottom of it ..... Rock solid security I swear .... O and that is Rosewood its setting on... The laser beam actually turned the rock into glass.....there is already a micro chip on the edge....as you can see


Also.... this is my Wooden bitcoin.... "LASERED" in Purpleheart...   NOT A WALLET...

Yep, from memory I picked up numbers 2, 3 and 4 ... but I would have to check to make sure.

Very nice list, reminds me to get a few that I haven't. Smiley

Monkey, around what did you pick them up for at the time?  I can only seem to find them on the website.

I'll let others chime in, but I think roughly .5 to .6 BTC.   IIRC they were $100 retail, and I believe they are sold out.

The infinitum coins look very nice but are quite expensive and have a high premium.   Cry Cry Cry

There was even 50 x coupon, to the first who ordered, If I remember right it was 10% off + free shipping.
I missed out, because bitpay was making trouble, eventually I had to make a new order at full price.

About the % in increase in value, if you calculate things in bitcoins, then have the increase in price been much higher, since the exchange rate dropped around new year. So we are closer to 100% increase in value (in terms of bitcoin). I believe that 1 x Football coin was around 0.3 BTC just before Christmas.  

OT:
Nice collection you have there bithalo, can't help you out, I have decimated my collection to a few of the brands you have on the list, to concentrate purely on them Smiley

Cryptography is one of the few things you can truly trust.

even though it is an unfunded coin, there is the grbox2001 physical bitcoin that you have missed on the list?

edit: I'm still gonna snap a pic of the bitcoincard.de card when I get a chance Smiley

Thanks for mentioning that.  I don't collect coins without a private key stored.  There's a bunch on ebay like that which I don't collect.

I look forward to seeing the card.

I never really put a price tag on them... The Purple heart B...I had the idea to laser a rubber stamp of  public and private keys and QR codes and glue it to the bottom....when you looked at it the stamp would be backwards and the QR code would not work...To get the QR to work... you would have to ink it and stamp it on paper to redeem it...

Do you guys think holding on to this coin would make a larger profit? Like hold on to it until the next coin gets released.
