[FiniteByDesign]

December 12th UPDATE: Bitcoin Bars singles are all sold out. There are 3 left as part of the variety packs listed below, but that is all that is left:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1041937.0

10-pack (sold out) = $400 + shipping
5-pack (2 left) = $225 + shipping

Each pre-order customer will be receiving a 'satoshi' t-shirt so please be sure to communicate your shirt size.

Due to popular demand, I have decided to start the process of organizing a pre-order of Bitcoin Bars! Please read through all details before committing to a purchase. A sufficient number of interest must be confirmed via pre-order purchases prior to moving into production. Production estimated at 2-3 weeks.

(2015) Limited Edition of 100 5" in diameter Bitcoin Bars:

These bars are made of a copper/brass alloy that is antique gold plated (like the Ether line) and will each come unfunded with a numbered hologram for customer placement on the bar. The customer can add a private key if they desire to add funds to the physical piece.

f*D's 5" Bitcoin Bar Specs:
* 192 grams
* 4-3/8" long
* 2-1/4" wide
* 1/4" thick

PRE-ORDER ONLY - Cost is $300 plus shipping for a 10-pack. To reserve the lowest available numbers a down-payment of $150 plus shipping is required with the remaining $150 balance due prior to shipment once minting is complete (estimated 2-3 weeks after sufficient number of pre-orders). Down-payment is refundable until orders are filled. NOTE: Once project moves into production, down-payments are no longer refundable.

Final design below.

Thank you to all those who have trusted the 'pre-order' process with me again. Happy to see this project coming to fruition.

I'm interested, and the price is pretty fair in my opinion. Gotta post here to follow along in my subscribed threads.

EDIT: In before smoothie posts that a pre-order is a bad idea 
Ha, I'm just fuckin' with ya smoothie man. I know you have the best interests of the community in mind when you say that.

Looks great.

Sending a PM.  Would like to reserve one with the lowest serial number available.

EDIT: Make that 10 bars.    Seems like a good value at $30 each.

im definitely interested, you said the production is going to begin in 2-3 weeks so if we buy the bar's right now when can we expect them to be shipped?

[bithalo]

Ordered 10 now via your website since the price is lower.    Would appreciate lowest serial # please.

Based on sufficient pre-orders which is hard to predict but I do not think it will take long. At that point, we move to production. I would guess 1 month at max, but again, I cannot guarantee that yet.

Appreciate it.  Looking forward to these.  The cost is very reasonable this time, especially for a large 5" bar.  Best of luck on this project.

By 5 inch diameter, do you mean 5 inch length?

Will be ordering one regardless!

5" from corner to corner, like a TV measurement

Anyone have a Casascius bar handy?  Curious how big that is diagonally for comparison.

A Casascius bar is about 3.55 inches diagonally

Much appreciated.

To give a point of reference, the iPhone 5 is 5" in diagonally.

Edit: Changing pre-order to 10-packs only to speed up the project like I did with the DRK and ETH. Singles will have to be via the secondary market.

7 packs to go.

[FiniteByDesign]

6 packs left.

#1-30 and 91-100 are sold.

Will the holograms have a window like Casascius used? Any chance of a plastic case for these also?

The holograms do not have windows and these will not come in a plastic case. Each will be individually enclosed in a protective pvc pouch, similar to the Ether and DRK coins.
